Richard Worzel: Program Outlines

Responsive Leadership in an Era of Change
Leadership doesn’t happen in a vacuum, but must adapt to circumstances. And tomorrow’s business and social environment is creating novel challenges that past techniques don’t completely answer. As a strategic planner, a Chartered Financial Analyst, and a professional futurist who is steeped in traditional and linear thought, Worzel recognizes the confusion and the problems conventional leadership methods create, and in this keynote builds thought bridges to help people over the inherent conflicts, and into new leadership for a strange, new era.

Strategic Foresight for Risk Management
In an increasingly dangerous world, risk management is a rapidly emerging discipline for large company executives, small company entrepreneurs, and professionals responsible for managing their own career-paths. In this introductory presentation and workshop, Worzel provides an overview of the future our society, the economy, and your organization are facing, and trains your people in tools they can introduce into their existing planning process that will enhance what they are doing, and dramatically improve their ability to anticipate many problems before they occur, and deal with ones that are unavoidable.

The Emergence of Alternative Energies
The combination of spiking oil prices and the rising consciousness of global climate change has created a startling demand for new energy sources that is reshaping the economic landscape, and creating once-in-a-generation opportunities. This fast-paced, orbital view of an exploding field will provide you with insights that will help your decisions tomorrow morning, and guide you in shaping your strategies for years into the future.

The Future of Money
Money isn't everything, but it is central to everything in our economy. Those who plan to thrive in an increasingly competitive world will need to know where money is coming from, where it’s going, how it will influence their company and industry, and what to expect and prepare for in order to be ready for the future. This intriguing and entertaining presentation Richard Worzel will leave your people with take-aways they’ll be able to use tomorrow morning to be more effective – and increase their share of tomorrow’s money.

The Green Economy: Social Responsibility that Pays Dividends
At the end of the 20th Century, public interest in environmental issues was on the wane. Today, public opinion is well past the tipping point, and organizations are scrambling to catch up. What this means is that leading the field in green issues can be both a strategic and a tactical competitive advantage in tomorrow’s business world. In this broad-ranging view of the rapidly emerging Green Economy, Worzel talks about what’s to come, and how to do well by doing good.

The Real Estate Roller Coaster: What’s Ahead?
The real estate industry, after a long and successful run, faces a volatile future for many reasons. In this overview of a national and international industry that is nonetheless driven by local and regional forces, Worzel offers real estate professionals critical strategic intelligence in order to make risk management and strategic foresight clearer and simpler for those intent on not just surviving, but thriving and growing in good times and bad.

The Rise of Bioscience
This is the bioscience century, where changes to the tools we use, the things we are able to do, and even who we are and how we function will undergo revolutionary transformation. Knowledge of developments within and beyond your field will be vital to successfully capitalizing your efforts, whether on behalf of a company, a group of investors, or by a government for its citizens. As a professional who keeps a steady focus on developments in the biosciences field, Worzel gives audiences a broad assessment of the biosciences century, and the developments that will shape its destiny.
