The Signals Are Talking: Why Today's Fringe Is Tomorrow's Mainstream (Amy Webb) Buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XKC3PCW?tag=9natree-20 Read more: https://mybook.top/read/B06XKC3PCW/ #trendforecasting #futureprediction #AmyWebb #CIPHERmethodology #fringesignals #innovation #strategicplanning #emergingtrends #TheSignalsAreTalking These are takeaways from this book. Firstly, Understanding Signals and Trend Forecasting, Amy Webb opens the book by detailing the importance of recognizing signals, which are often dismissed as noise or outliers, in trend forecasting. She deftly explains how these signals, when analyzed correctly, can predict shifts in society, technology, economy, and politics. Webb provides readers with a foundation on how to distinguish between a true signal and mere noise. This section empowers readers with the knowledge to identify emerging trends by observing innovations and changes at the fringes of society and technology. It's about understanding the undercurrents that precede major shifts and how to strategically position oneself or one's business to benefit from these emerging trends. Secondly, The Six Forces That Influence the Future, One of the book’s key frameworks involves the six forces that Webb argues are consistently driving change and shaping the future: wealth distribution, education, government, geopolitics, public health, and environmental issues. For each force, Webb provides insights into how they currently influence trends and how they are likely to continue doing so. She uses current and historical data to show how these forces interact with each other, often in complex ways, to push certain trends to the forefront. This topic not only helps readers gain a deeper understanding of the broader context in which trends emerge but also encourages them to consider multiple perspectives when analyzing potential futures. Thirdly, The CIPHER Methodology, A central part of 'The Signals Are Talking' is Webb’s introduction to the CIPHER methodology, a systematic approach she developed for predicting the future. CIPHER stands for Contradictions, Inflections, Practices, Hacks, Extremes, and Rarities. This method teaches readers to look for these specific types of signals in the world around them, aiding in the prediction of which emerging trends will take hold. Webb provides practical tips and real-world examples of how to apply each element of the CIPHER method to everyday observations, making it an invaluable tool for anyone looking to get ahead of the curve. Fourthly, Case Studies: From Fringe to Mainstream, Amy Webb illustrates her methodologies and theories with diverse and compelling case studies that span industries and topics. These examples help readers understand how fringe signals evolved into mainstream phenomena. From the rise of cryptocurrency to the proliferation of personal DNA testing, Webb dissect´s these trends´ journeys from the margins to the masses. Each case study unpacks the initial signals, the factors that drove their expansion, and the impact they have had on society. This section not only validates Webb's strategies for trend forecasting but also serves as a practical guide for applying these lessons to anticipate future trends. Lastly, Preparing for the Future, The final section of 'The Signals Are Talking' shifts focus towards practical advice for applying the insights and methodologies from the earlier chapters. Webb discusses the importance of agility, openness to innovation, and strategic planning for both individuals and organizations. She encourages readers to proactively consider the future impact of current trends, both globally and in their industries, and to develop strategies to navigate or even shape these trends. This topic is crucial for ensuring readers not just understand how to identify and analyze signals but also take actionable steps towards futur

No proximo episódio do Trends News 119, falamos a respeito do Report de Amy Webb do SXSW 2024, explorando as previsões e análises futurísticas que estão definindo as trajetórias de tecnologia, negócios e cultura. Amy Webb, renomada futurista e autora, compartilha suas perspectivas e insights sobre as últimas tendências emergentes do festival South by Southwest (SXSW), um dos principais eventos globais para as indústrias criativas e de tecnologia. Neste episódio, Anna Flavia, como moderadora, acompanhada de Nai Correa, Paulo Muniz, Charles Schweitzer, Professor Alberti e Rafael Velosos vão discutir os principais destaques do relatório de Webb, incluindo as inovações tecnológicas que prometem revolucionar diversos setores, desde inteligência artificial até sustentabilidade e saúde digital.

Bring Future Back to Strategy! In this episode, we bring you an exclusive interview with Amy Webb, a renowned futurist and bestselling author. Webb's foresight agency, the Future Today Institute, published its yearly trend report last week. Amy Webb claims that foresight and future thinking have vanished from strategies — and the consequences are devastating. If the focus of CEOs is on the revenue of the next quarters, opportunities for creating new growth diminish, Webb says. Webb also discusses the promise of AI and the societal risks of disinformation.

No one can predict the future, but quantitative futurist Amy Webb is doing her best. In this episode of WorkLab , Webb shares the most plausible outcomes for what the future looks like with AI and what business leaders can do today to make sure their organizations are set up for success. Webb is the first guest for season 5 of the WorkLab podcast, in which host Molly Wood has conversations with economists, technologists, and researchers who explore the data and insights into why and how work is changing.

We kick off Season 4 bravely with the visionary Amy Webb, Quantitative Futurist, CEO of the Future Today Institute, professor at NYU and author. In this episode, as in Amy’s book The Genesis Machine, we discuss the paths towards synthetic futures and the methods in creating more credible focus on the long term future. Amy speaks to her journey coming into the "esoteric" field of futures, from a fact-based background in economics and journalism. Fortuitously, she meandered on the rocky path to foresight, from a pragmatic background that fuels her drive to make foresight more impactful. Passionate about the need for foresight, now more than ever before, Amy describes the fourth era of foresight we are in, the actioning era as she calls it, driven by technology. This comes after three eras of extrapolation and imagining, calculation and war gaming and most recently (or currently, for many futurists), design fiction and crafting future alternatives. The mission to move foresight from government to corporations effectively is one Amy feels is leveraging ineffective tools; ones that don’t lean enough on data and mathematical modeling. This has led to a dilution of foresight’s impact and deluded futurists. Jo and Amy discuss ways to create changed mindsets and commitment to action in businesses, moving beyond inspiring to problem solving. It’s a contentious topic in the field of foresight, which is still largely government-integrated and academic, to move past creative extrapolation through scenarios, to mathematically driven models of the future. (A perspective Amy has copped some flack for.) Amy then takes us into the future, and the topic of the latest book she co-authored with Andrew Hessel, The Genesis Machine, explaining how over 13 years of researching AI she noticed something profound happening in the synthetic biology space. General purpose technologies have the potential to fundamentally alter society and impact the economy, like electricity and the internet have, and while Amy concedes scaling it is a ‘ways off’, we should be paying attention, and planning for synthetic biology to act as the next generative purpose technology – transforming medicine, the environment and our food systems. -- To look outside , Amy goes outside where cycling helps clear her busy mind. A familiar face on the conference circuit, Amy also makes a point to attend and learn from conferences and events that have nothing to do with her role or field of expertise. This broadening of perspective brings both a chance to learn and to gather surprising new topics to research. -- Founder and CEO of the Future Today Institute (FTI) , Amy Webb pioneered a data-driven foresight methodology that is now used within hundreds of organizations worldwide. She built FTI into one of America’s fastest-growing companies –– FTI has been ranked on the Inc 5000 list for two consecutive years. Amy helps CXOs of the world’s-admired companies achieve long-term growth, and she shows businesses how to spot disruption early enough to create new revenue or to mitigate risk. Amy also advises the leadership of government, military and central banks on risk and opportunity. Amy Webb was named by Forbes as one of the five women changing the world, listed as the BBC’s 100 Women of 2020, and in 2021 was ranked on the Thinkers50 list of the 50 most influential management thinkers globally. Her latest book, The Genesis Machine , explores the futures of synthetic biology. Learn more about Amy: https://amywebb.io Check out the foresight tools from <a href="https://futu

In this podcast, she shares: Why we should be doing 'back-casting' rather than forecasting Why strategizing for the future is NOT about predicting it, but instead about shifting your mindset to be prepared for the future’s uncertainty Some practical advice about who should be doing the kind of future planning work that that is so critical for today for any organization that wants to remain relevant __________________________________________________________________________________________ "If you're on a three-year strategic planning cycle, typically...you're marking milestones and KPIs...on that corporate strategy. The problem is that it doesn't account for uncertainty. This is where a lot of companies fall short, and they don't have the ability to recalibrate. So I do not use a line, I use a cone it's a different shape. So the intersecting vectors where that cone begins on the left that represents today. And the further out in time, you go, the wider, the angle becomes on the inside of that cone. And that represents uncertainty over time." -Amy Webb __________________________________________________________________________________________ Episode Timeline: 00:00 —Introducing Amy + The topic of today’s episode 2:10 —What is your definition of strategy? 3:32 —A model for thinking about time and foresight 6:05 —What's a tip or go-strategy for getting people to appreciate the importance of thinking of long-term horizons? 8:15 —Could you explain the difference between predicting the future vs. being ready for many possible futures.
