Journey to the Future - New "Total Immersion" Corporate Experience. Futurist Keynote Speaker

Dr Patrick Dixon MBE: Futurist Keynote Speaker - Futurist Keynote Speakers CALL +44 7768511390

Scenarios for Growth: Whatever your industry and whatever your background, the survival issues facing your company and your working environment can be boiled down to one word - Future.

Dr. Patrick Dixon brings the future alive by offering a thought-provoking and dramatic “Journey to the Future”: a "total immersion" in the future of your working life – a unique discovery experience that will change how you think and feel about tomorrow. Write your company's annual report for 2015 (unless you went bust in 2014 that is), listen to your CEO being interviewed in 2020 about the technological breakthrough in 2013 that kept you ahead of the competition and read the business pages in 2015 (the future has newspapers too) about how you revamped your brand to meet your customer's new desires and values before they even knew they had them, reflect on how society changed through 2010 to 2016 and how it affected your home, leisure, priorities and personal relationships.

Whether you have 5 people for a day or 5,000 for a week, we offer you The Future of...well, whatever you want. The Future of People, The Future of Travel, The Future of Money, The Future of Entertainment, The Future of Communication, The Future of Health, The Future of Marketing, The Future of management.

How to spot Fake Forecasts, Bad Analysts and False Futurists - secret of more accurate forecasting and of all great Futurist speakers. Shocking truth about easily avoidable Futurist errors

Dr Patrick Dixon MBE: Futurist Keynote Speaker - Futurist Keynote Speakers CALL +44 7768511390

It is often said that no one can predict the future, but the truth is that forecasting is far easier than you may think, because many things change more slowly than media hype suggests.  I know this from advising hundreds of the world's largest corporations on the impact of key industry megatrends, for more than 20 years, and from writing many books about the future since 1987.  I’m not talking about share prices, commodity prices or currency rates.  Anything to do with markets is as difficult to predict two months ahead as the British weather. Every now and again in history there is a genuine step-change, for example the collapse of communism, or a global war, or the creation of the web, but such things are rare.  That’s why most board room debates about the future are not usually about direction of a trend, which tends to be fairly obvious, but about timing or speed of that trend. Judge me on my own record - content on this website goes back to 1996.

Here's what I wrote a while back for Wired Magazine (adapted)...

Silent Conference! corporate event with style? Comment on innovative event by Futurist Keynote Speaker

Dr Patrick Dixon MBE: Futurist Keynote Speaker - Futurist Keynote Speakers CALL +44 7768511390

May seem a strange thing - to run a silent conference - but what should an event organiser do if you are short of breakout rooms for workshops and seminars?  Answer: run several groups in the main auditorium, using speaker microphones and receivers similar to those used when listening to live interpreters.

Patrick Dixon, conference keynote speaker and futurist explains how it works. Future of corporate events, lectures, presentations, keynotes, workshops and seminars. Leadership, motivation, marketing and management seminars with multiple workshops and seminars in same conference hall. Video made at Globe Forum Sustainagility conference session.

Important information for event organisers - by Futurist Keynote Speaker Patrick Dixon

Dr Patrick Dixon MBE: Futurist Keynote Speaker - Futurist Keynote Speakers CALL +44 7768511390

"Brilliant communicator who really cares about his audience and his clients"

Every presentation is customised after close discussion with event organisers, to create a high impact, entertaining, provocative, very interactive and relevant multimedia experience for audiences ranging from 20 to 3,000 - in 2D or spectacular 3D imaging. Dr Dixon tests opinion of each audience with "straw polls" and probes what they actually think themselves about future challenges, often walks around audiences and engages them personally.

Most presentations are opening keynotes, setting the scene for all that follows. Dr Dixon works hard to dig deep into organisational strategy and culture, with the help of each client, and aims to bring practical insights that are vitally important to the future of the corporation, taking into account everything else in the programme, and the priorities of the senior executive team.

There is an element of consultancy in most presentations: far more than an off-the-shelf standard lecture.

Organisers usually feel after working with Dr Dixon that they have found a friend: someone who understands the huge pressures they are under to make a great success of their event, and who is passionate about helping them make it happen. That is why he usually arrives the day before an event, offers to write articles, makes himself available for media interviews, signs every book that organisers buy to give participants (yes he has signed 1,400 for just one event), publishes his presentations online, makes conference videos available on / from his website, provides free access to 300 other presentations, and the entire text of 6 books and so on.

There is usually a strong focus on the future in every presentation, while also addressing urgent challenges facing the corporation / industry right now. There is a warm, practical, personal dimension, reflecting the fact that Dr Dixon first trained as a physician, looking also at what it means for individuals, families and friends, connecting with passion and ending with an inspiring challenge to make a difference.
