FVC2401. Opening Chair Remarks | KEYNOTE: Which Future?

Presidential election season. A “soft landing” for inflation. 900,000 fewer workers in the labor market. How can we use market realities, data, and insight to “predict” the future? We can’t. Economist and top-50 professional futurist Rebecca Ryan strips away the myths about strategic foresight, looks at the deeper issues facing the future of the economy, and teaches us techniques used by the NSA and others to detect signals of the future. Ryan has been an advisor and consultant to AICPA, CalCPA, CalPERS, and the US Dept of Homeland Security, among others. Ryan has also been on Accounting Today’s Top 100 list.


Learning Objectives:

  • Differentiate what strategic foresight is, and what it isn’t
  • Determine how to conduct your own signals and sensemaking panel
  • Identify three trends that will impact the next 10 years of the U.S. economy
