24. Learning with Jeff De Cagna

This episode features the insights and stories of Jeff De Cagna AIMP FRSA FASAE of Foresight First LLC. Jeff's comments on the future of associations amidst rapid societal and technological changes are not to be missed. He coined the term 'duty of foresight' and has been championing the challenge of changing orthodox beliefs to foster adaptability and growth in boardrooms. Defining moments is a recurring topic on this channel, and this time is no different. Though this time, it's something I'm familiar with, I take comfort in Jeff's words: "This moment doesn't define you for your entire life." Remember this, and let it inspire you to keep pushing forward. Jeff also shares the concept of a 'poly crisis' world, emphasizing the importance of understanding and preparing for converging crises across technology, politics, economy, climate, and social issues. Both sections underscore the need for proactive and informed board governance and the central role of continuous learning and technological tools, like smartphones, in navigating complex changes and ensuring organizational resilience. And above all, 'learning' is the key to future-proofing our associations, a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
