Unlock the Hidden Power of Weak Signals in an Age of Rapid Change

Masterclass on Signal Detection and Interpretation

 

Are You Missing Out on Crucial Information That Could Transform Your Organization?

Discover how to identify and decode weak signals to speculate about emerging customer needs and behaviors, innovate effectively, and outsmart your competition!

 

Weak Signals???

Weak signals are the subtle indicators of change that are often overlooked or dismissed.

In a world flooded with data, the power to detect and interpret weak signals can be the difference between leading the market and being left behind. Weak signals are subtle and ambiguous. Yet, they hold the potential to reveal seismic shifts in consumer behavior, technology trends, and competitive landscapes.

If you see them first, you have the time to decode them and pilot-test the new solutions that arise from them. You'll double the advantage because your competitor will catch on much later, have less time to test and run a high risk of costly mistakes.

Don't be the next Kodak (who dismissed the weak signals of digital photography). Be the next disruptor instead!

Hear it From the Expert

I am one of the few futurists worldwide who has earned a Ph.D. on managerial blind spots and can combine the insight with 20+ years of entrepreneurial experience in the real world.

I know where to look and what to look for.

Lively and Interactive

I believe that the future is a construct, not a fact, and that the best constructs are, well, constructed together.

That's why we will discuss and probe together and learn from each other instead of me lecturing you.

Surprising

It's funny how we are attuned to the present. We're very good at making sense of what is happening now and how our organizations must respond.

So good in fact, that looking beyond the present feels counterintuitive.

Be prepared for opposite thinking!
