Demographic trends impacting the future workforce: a strategic planning day with Xerox PARC
Markus Fromherz and Brigitte Jordan asked me to participate in a new workshop series over at Xerox PARC Palo Alto. (I first met Gitti via our mutual involvement in the wonderful AnthroDesign email list.)
These Futures Workshops are designed to be part of strategic planning at PARC — getting in outside speakers to talk about trends impacting businesses over the next decade. PARC’s goal is to work on core technologies that are still 5-10 years away from mainstream commercialization — so they need to keep their eye on where the puck’s going, rather than where the puck is now.
My slides are over on Slideshare here. I also got to participate in a panel and played facilitator at times. Overall tons-o-fun spending the day with the PARC folks.
