Our latest presentations: Context in a turbulent world
|
One of the most important services we offer is our world class presentations. We have two new presentations which work great as “scene setting” introductions for team meetings and away days. It’s especially important during these challenging and changing times to get those around you motivated, thinking differently and finding new solutions – we can help you do this:
 After Shock: What happens after what comes nextIn a turbulent world, it is more necessary than ever to have some means of anticipating what the future will be. Anticipating – and responding to – future customer demand, industry competition, legislative constraints, resource availability, labour supply, and all manner of other changes, is an absolutely critical task for every organisation everywhere. This framework will show you and your team how to do just that, by focusing on the four key drivers of disruptive change: technology, changing demographics, institutional upheaval and shifting societal values. A guaranteed to paradigm shaker and conversation starter as you and your team develop your strategies for the next 3-5 years!
 Brave New World: Understand the realities of the new world of work and what it will take to be successfulIn September 2008 the world changed almost overnight. Although many people are hoping that we will go back to “normal” after the recession, the reality is different. There is now a new normal and a new set of rules for success is emerging. This presentation or workshop shows leaders how an eighty year repeating economic and social cycle dating back as far as the War of the Roses (circa 1450) can shed light on what challenges companies can expect as they prepare for the upturn and beyond. The session reveals insightful realities about the new world of work and shows how tools such as appreciative enquiry and emergent strategies can help companies today.
Book one of these presentations now and benefit today – email Dean (Brave new world) or Graeme (After shock). For a complete list of our presentations, and brief summaries of each, click here.

We’re hiring more sales staff – can you help?
|
As a sign of confidence in the future we’re hiring. TomorrowToday UK needs a salesperson to sell our presentations and workshops into the British corporate market. We’re looking for a half-time or full-time person who is British, London-based, has experience in sales of services, has an established corporate network and is comfortable working on their own in a virtual office and being self managed. If you know of such a person, please put them in contact with us. |

The future of this newsletter
|
At the beginning of 2009, we created two TomorrowToday ezines: one for the UK team and another for South Africa. On reflection, and responding to some of your feedback, we’ve decided to consolidate the two newsletters into a single newsletter. This will come from TomorrowToday International about once every 6 weeks, and include content from our whole team. The first edition will be in late October. You do not have to do anything – we’ll consolidate our lists into a single newsletter database. Those of you who have signed up for both editions will receive a single TomorrowToday International newsletter in future.
As always, we welcome your comments on content, style, and anything else. Please don’t hesitate to contact us.
