One of the things that I observed during the last 12mths was how we likened the experience of the pandemic to the themes and realities of science fiction movies.

On this episode of The Family Business Voice, Anders Sorman-Nilsson, futurist, Founder of Thinque and part of a family business legacy, speaks with Ramia about how COVID-19 has changed our outlook on the world as well as our appetite for technology. The Australian-Swedish dual-citizen has shared the stage with heads of state, penned three books and featured as a keynote speaker around the world. Growing up in a family business environment, Anders is well-acquainted with the obstacles that SMEs come up against when faced with a crisis. But he’s also quick to point out that in times of upheaval, change and opportunity exist simultaneously alongside each other. – Those companies that place a high value on learning and curiosity are better positioned to navigate the crisis, finding opportunity through innovation and creativity. – Pandemics of the past have changed the way we work: the Black Death may have led to the Rennaissance and Spanish Flu saw women enter the workforce in unprecedented numbers. Looking past the hardships to pay attention to how our society is changing as a result of the pandemic will serve family business leaders well over the coming months. – Artificial Intelligence and Big Data are just two of the technologies that will likely be catalysed by COVID-19. Using these technologies to free up human talent for creative work has the potential to make family businesses even more sustainable.

Why can't we all be Nike? What is the true value of customer data? And how can personal transformation impact marketing? These are the sorts of questions that digital marketing futurist Anders Sorman-Nilsson has dedicated his career to answering. Working alongside brands like Apple, SAP, and Johnson & Johnson, he recognises that the digital and analogue worlds are increasingly aligning, making way for what he calls the ‘digilogue'. In this episode of The CMO Show, Sorman-Nilsson joins host JV Douglas to discuss how mapping seamless customer journeys will become a tug-of-war between the speed of digital and the experience of human connection. The key, he says, is asking the right questions now to anticipate the equilibrium for your brand later. “What companies need to really strategically think about is: What should be digital touch points? What should be analogue touch points? And don't just consider that from a cost perspective, but from what will really entice and engage the consumer's digital minds and their analogue hearts at the same time.” Tune in to find out why the one thing that customers are craving now, more than ever, is human experience. That plus how to nail marketing with chutzpah (and zombies).

Predicting the future is a challenging, but necessary, part of running a functional small business. So what will 2016 hold in store? And how can you look at past trends to make future predictions? In this episode of Xero In, futurist and innovation strategist Anders Sorman-Nilsson drops by to chat to Rob and JV about the year ahead. By considering past trends, current demographics and ongoing patterns in technology and disruption, Anders discusses a few of the major changes set to rock the small business scene. “By the end of this decade what you'll see is that 90% of IT budget will be controlled by non-IT business functions,” he predicts. “You're also going to see a lot of small to medium sized businesses going out of business in the next few years as a result of not adopting technology or not adapting. It's simply not a choice if you want to stay in business.”
