On 15 August 2011 independent Political Analyst and Futurist Daniel Silke launched the companion book to his best-selling keynote presentation Tracking the Future: Trends to Change the World in the Next Decade and Beyond. This coincides with a full revision of his acclaimed global trends lecture which observers have praised as an outstanding analysis of the future of the world.
Do you know the future of the World? Get ready for a thrilling ride! As the world emerges from a dramatic financial crisis, key trends are emerging that will influence all our lives – for some time to come.
In Tracking the Future, Political Analyst and Futurist, Daniel Silke, presents a compelling and challenging new analysis of the top ten trends that will transform the world over the next two decades. Silke identifies 10 key areas of dramatic change that will affect all our lives – as individuals, in society or in the business environment. Some of these changes are already here – and many more are coming at a ferocious speed. Are you or your business ready to understand this and adapt?
Some of the core issues that form part of Daniel’s acclaimed presentation which are elaborated on in his book include:
· dramatic shifts in population and the effects on the planet;
· the rise of Africa and the role of Emerging Markets;
· the changing ways in which power and influence are being wielded;
· the rapid trend towards urbanization and the future of the City;
· the dynamic nature of the new workplace and worker trends
· shifts facing the consumer of the future.
This book also contains a major chapter on the political future of South Africa. These latest international trends are critical in analysing the future of business and their inclusion in this new and highly accessible book will be a cutting-edge contribution to preparing for the dramatic changes to come. Silke’s blue-chip client base which includes the likes of FirstRand, Liberty Life, Telkom, Nedbank and Grant Thornton International have all praised his keynotes.
