Mike Walsh- Futurist

I was recently recommended to look at the work Mike Walsh. He is a dynamic and high energy presenter, blending a multimedia feast of video, high impact visuals and mind blowing case studies of innovation from his personal experiences in cutting edge global markets. Whether a conference, strategy offsite or an intimate boardroom discussion. Mike's presentations act as a powerful catalyst for innovation, strategic planning and brand inspiration. He is CEO of the consumer innovation research agency Tomorrow and is a leading authority and keynote speaker on the digital future. Constantly traveling the world for the best ideas – Mike curates the most relevant insights into high impact keynotes that allow audiences to not only understand, but also influence the future direction of their industry.

The Too Hard Basket

I recently came across an interesting website responsibility.com.au, featuring a book titled The Too Hard Basket by Bryce McDougall.

The book itself "identifies the two biggest challenges facing humanity: the widening gap between the rich and poor, and environmental degradation.  It not only discusses how these problems evolved, but actually maps out an unstoppable way forward that will contribute to reversing them".

Definitely worth taking a look at and perhaps developing a new perspective.
