The Uncertainty Principle
This is a keynote about a Never Normal future. Not the bleak, dystopian kind that so many seem convinced we're heading toward, but one that is built on hope, possibility, and progress.
The accelerating pace of change seems to fuel the belief that we’re living in an age of unprecedented volatility, where emerging technologies have to be restrained before they spiral out of control. But uncertainty isn’t unique to our time. It’s a feature of life, not a bug. And it’s also where the greatest possibilities emerge.
Today, humanity faces a complex set of global challenges, from technological and geopolitical shocks to biological, social, and ecological disruptions. But fear, hesitation, and avoidance won’t help us meet them. Slowing down is not the answer. We need to move faster, think bigger, and harness the full potential of technology to build a future worth longing for. We need active hope. And bold, visionary leaders who understand how to reframe adversity into opportunities. That’s why the Uncertainty Principle zooms in on the key levers of transformation that will help leaders rethink and reinvent their companies as vessels of progress: strategy, foresight, organizational design, management, culture, innovation, risk appetite, and the evolving nature of work itself.
Above anything else, this keynote will inspire business leaders to see cracks in the system not as warnings, but as windows. It’s for those people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world. Because they are the ones who will.
