Futureneering or future nearing?

March 31, 2005 Graeme Codrington Future Trends No Comments

I have recently acquired an awesome piece of software, Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 8. This is voice recognition on steroids. I am in the process of training it to my voice and my vocabulary. In fact, this particular blog entry has been done entirely by voice command.

Anyway, while tidying up an article on predictions, I used the word futureneering. The voice recognition software recorded it as ‘ future nearing’. Not bad, I thought. That’s sort of what I meant. The only point of visioning or predicting is to make a valid attempt at trying to create the future you’re dreaming of.

You’re going to have to change your management style

You’re going to have to change your management style

I spend a large part of my year in conversation with managers working hard to try and understand today’s younger workforce. The pain they’re feeling is palpable. The evidence of change is overwhelming. Making the necessary changes, at times, seems impossible. The hope is that the challenges are being interrogated and slowly but surely acted [...]

A Radical Proposal for Executive Pay

A Radical Proposal for Executive Pay

Everyone agrees that something must be done about executive pay. One of the major contentious issues emerging out of the financial crisis is the way that senior executives and manager, especially in the financial industries, are remunerated. These days, executive pay often seems to be unrelated to the company’s performance, and in many [...]
