The Amplify Festival in Sydney, Australia was quite an eye opening event for me in the realm of futurism, innovation and long-term development. The topics and speakers likewise had some world class research behind them. I blogged an overview for each day and shared them on LinkedIn.
I was at hand as Blogger-in-Residence for the five days of the event hosted by AMP, one of the top financial services companies of Australia, at their downtown offices. I also facilitated the panel on Customer Engagement and Trust (shown on right) with three others with great insight: Katryna Dow (Meeco.me), Michael Weeding (AMP), and Cheryl Burgess (Blue Focus Marketing). The event was attended by AMP employees (even their top execs like Craig Meller, their CEO, and Craig Ryman, their CIO), as well as many from across Australian industry.
I have posted two pieces on Forbes (so far):

“As Alvin Toffler tells us, there are all kinds of time spanners that connect us to the past, but we don’t have a heritage of the future. We don’t have memory to help us adapt to the things we see in the future,” said Stuart Candy, Director of the Situation Lab, […]

The Future of Finding Work lies in a state of multi-work, or working in multiple roles at the same time. The idea of a single full-time jobs causes up to 20-25% productivity loss during our tenure (3.5-4.5 years on average). The reality is that we spend up to 8 months just learning our job environments, so why not split your time at multiple different work environments? In addition, we are starting to see new technologies that turn work into platforms that can manage work assignment and logistics for us.
