The Future of Work
Overview
Mark Twain, the famed American author, once said, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.” This has never been more true than now - in a world of constant change and shifting trends. The global team of researchers, futurists and practitioners at TomorrowToday spend much of our time tracking trends and creating frameworks that make sense of the world. Now, you can have direct access to their most up-to-the-minute insights, in Graeme's most ambitious and up-to-date presentation, "The Future of Work".
Graeme presents insights into 12 key trends that are shaping and changing the future of work. This presentation can be customised to suit your needs - short or long; all 12 trends or just some of them; high level strategy session or playful high-energy event; focus on specific issues or allow Graeme to choose the emphasis; a single presentation or a series of short inputs over a day long strategy session; a keynote or an interactive workshop... the choice is yours to make.
This presentation covers at least the following content:
- Globalisation
- The New (talented) Workforce
- Migration
- EVEolution (the growing importance of women in the workplace)
- Climate Change and the Planet's Resources
- Social Responsibility
- Technology Convergence and Mobility
- Security
- Health and Wellness
- Work-Life Integration (beyond balance)
- Retyrement - an ageing workforce
- Employer Brands - the key to the future

Discover the new rules of sustained business success in a connected world, where what you sell is becoming less important, and who you are and how you sell more and more critical.
Winning the Talent Wars - In the global war for talent, companies have discovered that a new generation of "bright young things" seems to have the upper hand. Asking more, giving less, moving more often and generally giving their managers a headache, these young people are nevertheless vital to most companies' success and future. This presentation or workshop explains why today's talent think and act as they do, and provides seven keys into what your company can do to create an attractive culture that not only retains them, but energises and motivates them, too. It encourages an important mindset shift for all companies that are battling with staff turnover, and for those that have identified the need to get - and keep - talented staff as a critical priority.
"Hannah's Rules": The Rise of the Ethical Consumer - the impact that a new generation of consumers will have on business as they care less and less about what you sell, and more and more about who you are and how you sell, and strategies to connect with them before your competitors do.
Prime Time - How to retain your retiring ‘baby boomer’ workforce in innovative ways that meet your business needs as well as their ‘re-tyring’ goals.

This is the wealthiest, largest, aging population the world has ever seen. Are you ready? Do you know what they want and why? As a workshop, this framework also explains how to harness their marketplace power to your advantage.
