prepare for the future

Change is here and security has to change with it. In this episode, Mark speaks with Ron Worman, Founder of The Sage Group and Managing Director of The Great Conversation. Ron talks about how the security industry is ripe for reinvention. 

With AI shaking things up on a fundamental level, security leaders must adapt to this reality and let go of outdated methods. Aside from a mindset focused on innovation, leaders must build a business model for the future that allows people to get retrained and redeployed during downturns.

Tune in as Ron digs into embracing change and emerging technologies on The Fearless Mindset Podcast.

GOLDEN NUGGETS

Reimagine security as times change- Ron: "I am now putting security in the category of bookstores, music, and taxis just for a second. And we're doing it as a thought experiment, not because we're saying that security's no longer relevant. Music is still relevant, books are still relevant under a different form, even on a Kindle, and taxis are still relevant under a different form called Uber and Lyft."

Prepare for the future and save money - Ron: "You shouldn't wait till you get laid off to be putting money in the bank. Don't take that extra trip to Hawaii. Don't spend money on that 60-inch screen. Make sure you're putting 10% every day out of your pay. And if really want to buy off on the fact that everything you do impacts your world, set another contribution aside to nonprofits who are helping people."

In this episode, we welcome Sven Gabor Janszky as our guest and we are going to have a look into the future. Did we recently change the narrative on the Virtual Frontier to an esoteric psychic show?

If we take a look into the past, it is filled with stories of people who possessed supernatural talents and abilities and could foresee the future. The talents of these oracles were often feared but also widely respected and access to them was guarded, in many places, only the priests, the wise men or even the ruling class had the privilege to consult the appropriate oracle. Whoever had "reliable" information about the future, could use it to his advantage and thus sometimes be a decisive step ahead of the rival.

Questions and views highlighted in this episode:

• What distinguishes scientific futures research from general predictions or interpretations?
• Why do we tend to think more in terms of individual cases rather than possibilities?
• The classic 5-year strategy has had its day. Companies are looking for new ways to prepare.
• Trends for 2030-2035. digitalization and demographics.
• How can we work on our positive future images?
