The future is unfolding in real-time, all the time. But most retail brands are in a state of constant catch-up – just being at par before another innovation appears.

Nancy Giordano is a strategic futurist, speaker, consultant, and author of Leadering, a book aimed at challenging leaders to be bolder in shaping the future – not only of their companies but of the world.

Nancy Giordano, Founder and Strategic Futurist at Play Big, spells out what it means to be a strategic futurist, as well as the work that goes into identifying and addressing systemic injustices. She also discusses the power of saying thank you. Ajay is a boy genius, and Vincent has his eye on a silver apple.

“That playbook is completely outdated, and it's dangerous. If you applied a 20th century mindset to a 21st century world, we're going to be much more hurt. How can we think about a way in which business and society can thrive together? We have to exist in a place of constant learning, a place of much more caring, and a place where we think about long-term value creation as opposed to short-term profitability growth” Nancy Giordano is a strategic futurist, an author, and the founder of Play Big Inc. Her focus and vision bleed into PBI’s own initiatives, where they focus on helping enterprise leaders meet the escalating expectations of a fast changing world. In this episode of Control the Room, I speak with Nancy about updating strategic efforts, machine learning, and the tools meeting planners have at their disposal in bettering their teams’ success.

In today's episode Dirk talks with Nancy Giordano, Strategic Futurist, and founder of Play Big Inc.. When you speak with the visionaries and entrepreneurs actually building the technology applications of tomorrow—from AI, cyber security, nanotechnology, virtual reality and everything in between—and ask how far into this new era we are, almost universally the reply is: “only one percent”. Imagine then, where we will be ten years from now? How about 50? What makes this moment so unique is not only that we are collectively experiencing a simultaneous global pandemic and economic landslide, but that we are also standing at the front end of an astronomical (yep, “radical” doesn't get close enough) shift in how the world will work. And it will happen fast. Among the topics explored by Dirk and Nancy: • What does the future need and expect of us • Identifying your unique way to create and contribute to the future • And exhaustive discussion of the technologies we need to be watching • 4 social trends emerging from the pandemic • Building individual and organizational awareness • How convergent technologies are changing the world • The need to rethink metrics of success Information On Referenced Topics: Nancy Giordano LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nancygiordano/ Play Big Inc.: https://playbiginc.com/#home We are only 1% In Blog post: https://nancygiordano.com/blog/were-only-one-percent-in Femme Futurist Society: https://femmefuturists.com Distribution As We Know It Is Dead: https://unleashwd.com/distribution-is-dead-ebook/

The banking industry had been warned for decades to become more innovative, transform to digital, embrace new technologies and become more aware of consumer and societal needs. Rather than moving forward, many organizations hesitated due to cost, the desire to stay the course, or even ‘intentional blindness’.   Unexpectedly, however, the world was disrupted by COVID-19 pandemic that required digital engagement, and more recently a social pandemic centered on racial equality, diversity and inclusion. These events created four seismic shifts in awareness and behavior that are reshaping our understanding of business, society, technology and ourselves.   We are joined today by Nancy Giordano, strategic futurist, founder of PlayBig, Inc. and co-founder of the Femme Futurists Society. In the episode, Nancy discusses how the recent confluence of pandemics have impacted the future of work, our perspective on social inequities, changes in consumption and our understanding of ourselves.
