Description

Transformational disruptions are coming. Instead of having your head in the clouds, the cloud will be in your head – thanks to brain-to-computer interface (BCI) – leaving you with just two choices, adapt or be left behind. Ben Lytle lays out what’s next and how to get ready for it in his indispensable new book, THE POTENTIALIST: Your Future in the New Reality of the Next Thirty Years (buy HERE on Amazon). Lytle has written a Future Shock for the 21st century, explaining how every one of us can thrive during these rapid changes by becoming a Potentialist. Boris Tsimerinov, Board Member of Harvard Alumni in Healthcare and President of the HBS Club of Toronto will speak with Ben Lytle.

The next 30 years will include a seismic shift in well-known institutions – such as government, education, religion, news media, and reliance on employers. Lytle looks at this new future through a lens of opportunity, not anxiety and fear, while emphasizing that now is the time to take action.

Topics include:

  • Futurist vs Potentialist
  • Need to act now to make necessary changes and preparations
  • Democratization & Deinstitutionalization
  • Careers, Brands, & Entrepreneurs
  • Superhumans & Cyborgs
  • Optimizing health as life expectancy expands
  • Refinement vs Retirement

With years of research and extensive entrepreneurial experience at Fortune 500 companies, startups, and midsized companies, Lytle explains in simple terms the New Reality, democratization, and how to differentiate yourself and succeed. He covers how technology will impact human abilities and our world, and what to expect regarding careers, healthcare, wealth, and new definitions for success, residency, and retirement.

Lytle says accelerating change, democratization, and deinstitutionalization are not about doom and gloom, but unparalleled opportunity for everyone who acts to seize it. The goal is a higher level of personal performance and a broader perspective of the changes afoot. He offers immediate steps to improve personal readiness for the future while leaving the world a little better in the process.

Participants must register by Noon on December 10th to receive details on joining the discussion. The Zoom link will be sent out 24 hours before the event.

Please note that no refunds will be issued.
