Mindshift

Lead Like the Future Depends On It (Because It Does)

Bestselling author Brian Solis unpacks the powerful ideas behind his latest book, Mindshift, revealing how today’s boldest leaders are rewiring how they think, lead, and innovate.

Hey, Mr. Futurist, WTF

(What’s The Future) of… My Industry?

From generative AI to the metaverse, disruptive tech is shaking up every industry. But the real question isn’t what’s changing — it’s are you ready to lead through it? In this eye-opening keynote, futurist Brian Solis reveals how tomorrow’s top companies are using emerging tech to amplify, not just automate, their performance.

The Four Stages of AI Maturity: The Path to Becoming an Exponential Business

What does leadership and business model innovation look like in an AI-first world? The answer is ‘exponential.’

Generative AI is affecting the trajectory of all businesses, separating early adopters and high performers from the rest. Brian is on the front lines with leading businesses and has developed a maturity model to accelerate AI-led growth.

Beyond digitizing, automating, and optimizing existing processes, taking out costs, and scaling efficiencies, Brian will share how innovative companies are augmenting work itself. By touring the AI Maturity Model, he’ll demonstrate how to reimagine leadership, supercharge performance, and unlock exponential outcomes and potential.

In this inspiring session, Brian will...

  • Reveal how companies fall into the automation trap and how they may miss opportunities for innovation and growth.

  • Introduce how businesses are prioritizing digitization and automation initiatives powered by AI.

  • Break-down how AI unlocks the ability to do things better and also enable work that couldn’t be done before for iterative, new, and exponential value creation.

  • Explore the 4 stages of AI maturity to shift mindsets from one of automation to one of automation + augmentation to create an exponential business.

  • Review new roles and models to support AI maturity.

The Race to 2030: Building a Culture of Innovation, to Thrive Against Digital Darwinism

What can we learn from some of the colossal mistakes we have seen from some of the biggest companies in the world? How can you prevent your company from making the same mistakes?

Digital Darwinism is reshaping markets and behaviors, and its only accelerating. With AI, automation, spatial computing, robotics, web3, metaverse, blockchain, and whatever comes next, the time is now to proact against disruption, before it has a chance to disrupt.

Legacy management, rigid processes, fixed mindsets, and risk-averse cultures may be common across every organization, but combined, they make evolving against Digital Darwinism onerous and sluggish. The key is to understand the future to build toward it today, to reimagine yesterday’s business and operational models for tomorrow’s world, right now.

In this exciting and just-in-time session, Brian will help you ensure your business remains not only relevant, but innovative and future-proofed against Digital Darwinism.

Audiences will learn:

  • How incumbent companies are making mistakes and what you can do to avoid their fates.

  • How to break free from “management” to unlock next-generation leadership.

  • How to create a culture of innovation, to identify, lead, and empower business mavericks and change-makers within your organization.

  • The role people play in innovation, new skills needed, and new models for collaboration and experimentation.

  • How to play a role in leading change and how to embrace creativity and curiosity to show up differently every day.
