Exponential Thinking
Our world is changing at an exponential pace. In this talk, Anne Connelly will teach you how to change your mindset to adapt to this pace, and become an exponential leader.
You’ll learn about the 6 D’s of exponential thinking: digitization, deception, disruption, demonetization, dematerialization, and democratization, and how they can help us prepare for the future. She will provide examples of exponential growth in the world, and highlight companies who have changed their strategies to thrive in a world of change.
Perfect for executives looking to amp up their team’s performance, this session will inspire participants to take a future forward approach to leadership, and guide them through the process of creating a Massive Transformative Purpose and define how they can use their skills and talents to create a positive impact on the world.
Blockchain and the Future of Decentralized Societies
The foundation of our society is built on trust - trust in governments, banks, and other institutions. But what happens when we can't trust the institutions we depend on? Blockchain technology enables us to completely redesign society by shifting power back into the hands of communities themselves. In this talk, Anne will cover the basics of blockchain technology, and dive into topics like cryptocurrencies, self-sovereign identities, and decentralized governance models.
She’ll inspire you to see beyond the headlines and understand how the decentralization enabled by blockchains is impacting the world’s most vulnerable people. This talk is relevant for professionals across a variety of industries and will educate and inform people who are both completely new to blockchain as well as those who already have experience.
