132. Becoming an Anticipatory Organization - with Daniel Burrus

Today we'll be talking about why becoming an anticipatory organization just may be the key to long-term business success. We'll look at why companies like Sony, Dell, BlackBerry, and Blockbuster (all of which were led by talented executives that knew how to be agile and execute strategy) fell behind the competition; how to anticipate and pre-solve problems before your company has them; and how to use hard trend certainties to accelerate innovation and drive results. Joining us today to talk about those topics and more is returning guest Daniel Burrus. Daniel recently published his new book, The Anticipatory Organization, in which he shows that the future is far more certain than we realize – and knowing where to find certainty in an uncertain world provides a big advantage for those who know how and where to look. Using the principles of this unique model of thinking, planning, innovating, and taking action, readers will learn how to pinpoint and act upon the enormous opportunities of tomorrow by identifying a number of factors that help predict future events, and planning accordingly. Resources:Get your free hard copy of The Anticipatory Organization at TheAOBook.comLearn more at DanielBurrus.comConnect with Daniel: LinkedIn | Twitter | Facebook | YouTube Learn more and get the full show notes at: 3PillarGlobal.com
