How Snowboarding can Train Your Autopilot for change and future proof?
A few weeks ago, my family and I went on a ski holiday in the mountains. It was a beautiful day with great weather, and my two girls, aged nine and eleven wanted to learn snowboarding.
They had tried it a year or two ago, and it was kind of okay. But this year, it was much more challenging, and it was fascinating to see how they adapted to the new learning experience.
My 3-year-old son, on the other hand, was skiing with little effort,...
The skills of the future
Navigating in uncertain world is like getting into a space ship and taking off. You dont know what is out there. We simply dont know, how far we go, what is behind the next corner and what news we will receive.
We simply have to learn and simply navigate it. Get into this Ship that will take us into the future.
We have heard a lot about Adaptive leadership, Learning Agility, Strategic agility, Fast Decision making and Judgment, the number 1 skill following WEF ranking for 2030.

What does ‘future-proofing’ even really mean?
And what does it take to be successful?
What skills and attributes do employees and leaders need?
What it takes to be successful.
I have been working on this topic over the past fifteen years, discovering, and studying adult education and innovation. I have been connecting, learning and doing, and discovering big gaps between those two elements.

I have worked for many years in organizations in transformation, change management, and innovation. In every book, course, or business, I always heard, ‘Change has to come from the top.’ THE CEOs, MANAGEMENT, BOARD etc
Everybody is looking to the leadership to implement and enforce change.
But change has to come from the heart.
This is the place in every human being where change happens. If change doesn’t reach the heart, it doesn’t stick.
Change happens because someone gets an idea or vision of a better world, becomes passionate about it, and takes the first step....
My own discovery and outcome about masterminds.
“You can accomplish in one year more than you could accomplish without it in a lifetime.” Napoleon Hill, the creator of the MasterMind concept.
Mastermind groups have become a massive trend for modern entrepreneurs and business innovators. These groups allow business owners and entrepreneurs to collaborate and share ideas. They create an excellent environment for growth.
But seriously, how is it possible that you could accomplish so much in one year?
Jim Rohn once says, “You are the average of the...

There’s an old English saying, ‘You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear,’ meaning you can’t make something of high quality from low-quality ingredients. From this old saying is born another phrase, ‘to make a pig’s ear of it,’ meaning to take something of sound origin and mess it up beyond redemption.
I bring this up because it feels apt for today’s discussion of Harley Davidson’s Livewire electric motorcycle.
Take a Silk Purse Brand…
Harley Davidson, it could be argued, is a silk purse of a brand. Established in 1903 and incorporated in 1907, by the 1920s the Harley Davidson...
Due to the pandemic three years ago, we experienced a mass shift towards global digitalisation. The process was already underway; the pandemic merely condensed the timeframe.
Or did it?
We are still in that process, only now we are deeper into it. And now another topic is coming to the fore: sustainability.
What do these two things have in common? Unfortunately, we have seen many failures in both areas due to a simple lack of understanding that leads to a flawed approach.
Let me explain.
Why We’re STILL Digitalizing
