Running is about belief, determination, and community. How we get to the finish line and who joins us along the way are memories we all want to cherish. Have you ever wondered about the humans behind the marathon and the technology that brings them together? In this episode of One Vision, we chat with Frank Diana, Managing Partner and Futurist at TCS, as well as Susanna Sullivan, a public school teacher and competitive runner, and part of a group of teachers sponsored by TCS, about the upcoming TCS New York City Marathon and the tech innovation that serves to enrich the race experience. As in years past, technology will play a key role in bridging our physical and digital worlds and creating lasting memories of key moments. From the past, to the present and the future, the way we connect to each other will continue to evolve and be reinforced — from bits and bytes to true human connections — with the power of data.

Moov con Valeria Ortega y Frank Diana. 4 de octubre del 2022. by TXS Plus

"The further backward you look, the further forward you see", said Winston Churchill. So let's talk about the future and its implications for the future of work! Today, we are honored to have Frank Diana, Managing Partner at TCS, a recognized futurist and thought leader with over 30 years of leadership experience. So don't lose another moment, relax and take a journey into the future!

​Welcome to openSAP Invites. I'm your host Robert Nichols, and I'm excited to welcome two futurists from Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Frank Diana and Kevin Benedict. Frank and I first worked together on an openSAP thought leaders course called “Reimagining the Future: A Journey Through the Looking Glass”. A course that explained that we can no longer predict the future, but instead must rehearse it. Frank, Kevin and I discuss, with a particular focus on the impact of the pandemic on future possible scenarios for our standard way of living.

The buzz: Futurists are people who attempt to predict the future – authors, consultants, thinkers, organizational leaders and others who engage in interdisciplinary and systems thinking to advise private and public organizations on diverse global trends, possible scenarios, emerging market opportunities and risk management. Futurists are motivated by change. Not content merely to describe or forecast, they desire an active role in world transformation. Futurology is concerned with ‘three P's and a W', i.e., ‘possible, probable, and preferable' futures, plus ‘wildcards', which are low-probability, high-impact events. In The Left Hand of Darkness, Ursula K. Le Guin distinguished futurology – the business of prophets, clairvoyants, and futurists – from novelists, whose ‘business is lying.'” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futurist We'll ask futurists Mike Bechtel, Frank Diana, Tom Raftery and Alexandra Whittington for their take on The Future of Futurists, Futurology and Crystal Ball Tech.

The Buzz: “For better and for worse, robots will alter humans' capacity for altruism, love, and friendship…‘hybrid systems'—where people and robots interact socially—the right kind of AI can improve the way humans relate to one another” (theatlantic.com). “The internet acts like a kind of digital-fuelled alcohol, freeing us to say things to strangers that we would never dare to say if we met them” (bbc.com). “Being a good online citizen is more than being a safe Internet user—it's about being responsible, smart, and having respect for yourself and others” (goguardian.com). In our global pandemic, more people are online more than ever– working, learning, meeting from home. Are they always nice to each other? No, continuing a pre-Covid-19 trend. We'll ask Frank Diana, Prof. John H. Shannon, Ruchin Kansal and Kevin Benedict if AI, machine learning and other technologies will boost humans' civility and respect online and offline? And will a “New Nice” last?

Today's Buzz: “By 2030 the average person in the U.S. will have 4.5 packages a week delivered with flying drones. They will travel 40% of the time in a driverless car, use a 3D printer to print hyper-individualized meals, and will spend most of their leisure time on an activity that hasn't been invented yet … Most people will have stopped taking pills in favor of a new device that causes the body to manufacture its own cures. Space colonies, personal privacy, and flying cars will all be hot topics of discussion, but not a reality yet” (Thomas Frey, futuristspeaker.com). Wow! In 2030, will YOU be that “average person” or a different statistical notation in a rear-view-mirror blog? We'll ask futurists Michael Gale, Frank Diana, Kevin Benedict, and Gray Scott for their take on Life in 2030: How Will YOU Eat, Play, Work, Drive and Do Everything Else?

If there is one thing constant in this world, that would definitely not be the future. It varies according to the different types of influences and technologies we encounter. Frank Diana, a recognized futurist, thought leader, and frequent keynote speaker, explains his thoughts on these influences that affect the future and how they come together. He goes deep into predicting trends, thought-leadership focused on emerging future, perception between real and not real, climate change, cryptocurrencies, AI, and more. Scents define a person wearing it. Sue Phillips, CEO and Founder of Scenterprises, is a globally-recognized expert of fragrance, cosmetics, and personal care. In this episode, she explains the details on how she creates scents for major brands and how these scents change a person. Sue takes us along on a fragrant ride through different ingredients and the way she creates custom fragrance experiences for people. Love the show?

What good is a futurist if he can’t predict? According to our guest Frank Diana, “prediction isn’t my job.” That seems to be a pretty odd thing for a futurist to say. But Frank’s response unleashed a flood of ideas when he said “It’s my job to help people rehearse for the future." Frank belongs to a growing community of thought leaders from all walks of life and backgrounds who are trying to help people make sense of a world of unknown unknowns. "Connecting the dots has never been so complicated." What does it take to rehearse for success when the future holds a world of unknown unknowns?  Listen now.

The buzz: We now have the world in our pockets. Our TVs are smart. Our cars soon to be driverless…The technology we craft creates new use cases, opportunities, and dangers. The tech and its application cannot be separated. This brings us to larger questions of how we should employ technology, what risks new tech may bring, and what the arrival of these new futures means to us as humans on our little ball of dirt. This is the sphere of digital ethics.” (Adam Henshall). Are you loving the technologies that are making your work easier, your home smarter, your healthcare more efficient, and your social life more fun? We don't mean to be a Debbie Downer, but the tech you love may be compromising your privacy and more in ways you can't imagine. Who is making the new rules? We'll ask the experts: Frank Diana at TCS, Seton Hall Law Professor John H. Shannon and Dan Wellers at SAP Insights You are invited to join us for Brave New World of Digital Ethics: Who's Deciding Our Technology Rules?

In this episode I talk with Frank Diana. Frank is a recognized futurist, thought leader, and advisor in the context of business, societal and economic evolution. With over 30 years of business leadership in various executive roles, Frank scans the human horizon for emerging trends and technology, and leverages storytelling and pragmatic solutions to provide clients with a clearer path to success in a rapidly changing world. Frank and I discuss just how fast the world is changing, and the need to remain resilient as the pace of change increases. We talk about human turning points throughout history, and just how our current point in time compares. We touch on how different the world will look in only 20 or 30 years from now, and how hard that is for us to grasp. We ponder the ethical dilemmas of adopting new technologies, and how to ensure we're thinking about their possible uses from all angles. We also briefly touch on just how much we've changed already, as we've struggled to make sense of our increasingly connected, 21st century world, against the backdrop of a 20th century paradigm.

The buzz: “A techno-philanthropist can be ‘a young, idealistic iPad jet setter who cares about the world–the whole world–in a new way' (Peter Diamandis). Technology has created techno-philanthropists who use their money to try to solve seemingly unsolvable problems such as hunger and disease, by driving acceleration across the Sciences and Technology. For example, Bill Gates's brainchild Breakthrough Energy Ventures (BEV) investment fund aims to accelerate energy innovation via high-profile investors Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, Jack Ma, and Michael Bloomberg. Why and what would you give? The experts speak. Frank Diana, TCS: “On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world'' (Jack Welch).

Frank Diana is a recognized futurist, thought leader and frequent keynote speaker. He has served in various executive roles throughout his career and has over 30 years of leadership experience. Currently at Tata Consultancy Services, he is focused on leadership dialog in the context of our emerging future and its implications on business, society, governments, economies, and our environment. He blends a futurist perspective with a pragmatic, actionable approach, leveraging horizon scanning and storytelling to see possible futures and drive foresight into leadership deliberation.   His leadership experience obtained through various executive roles connects practical realities with the need to focus on an emerging future filled with complexity and change. A strong ability to connect dots enables the identification of future scenarios quickly and broadly, with an ability to see implications years into the future.   The conversation with Frank centered around his research which focuses on scanning the horizon for possible futures. We address common concerns about robots taking over the job market and eventually the world. We seek to understand what’s really true, what’s fear mongering, and what individuals and businesses should do to prepare for a world of change.   Some topics we covered include:   How Frank became so interested in educating the public as a futurist through his early career. Addressing the two tipping points that have occurred thus far in humanity and changed what it means to be human-- and the coming third tipping point. Addressing some of the common fears that people have about the implications of advanced AI and robotics on the future. How the shift to an automated society might cause initial elimination of jobs, but ultimately will allow more time for pursuit of creative, entrepreneurial endeavors. A discussion on the characteristics needed to succeed in a world of change, and what you personally should do to prepare for it.   Show Notes: https://ajgoldstein.com/podcast/ep21 AJ’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/ajgoldstein393/ Frank’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fdiana Frank’s website: frankdiana.net

The buzz: “Those who have knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have knowledge.” (Lao Tzu) Given the uncertainty, pace, and unexpected nature of today's world, there are too many unknowns for us to effectively predict the future. Reality check: A convergence across science, technology, politics, society, economics, the environment, and growing ethics discussion, has created a complex web that requires the type of system thinking that may exceed our human capacity. Do machines hold the answer? Can they predict the path of an overwhelming number of possible futures? The experts speak. Frank Diana, TCS: “We have a duty to think hard about what may be, so as to better prepare society for the changes that may come” (Richard Baldwin). Gray Scott, Futurist: “Prediction is not just one of the things your brain does. It is the primary function of the neo-cortex, and the foundation of intelligence” (Jeff Hawkins).

What are the implications of technology and new business models on the future of work? The impact of technologies such as artificial intelligence and robotics have profound implications for both companies, individuals, and society. At the same time, government policy on these issue lags technology and the impact on people. On this episode, a respected futurist and well-known data scientist explore these complicated and important issues.
