Think Like Your Future Depends on it, Because it Does | Ann Herrmann-Nehdi | TEDxBigSky

For most of our lives, we’ve been told that to be a success you need to become an expert. Find your sweet spot—what you’ll major in, your career path, what you’ll be when you “grow up”—and then get great at that one special thing you do. But industries are evolving faster than ever. Specializations are becoming outdated. Single-mindedness is closing us off from opportunity. The question is, how can you become future ready when “what you know” won’t necessary apply and might actually be blocking your view and ability to learn? Transform your thinking. When the world is volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous, it’s going to take all your thinking capabilities, not just your specialized strengths, to be future ready in the midst of so much rapid change. But the good news is, you have the best tool available for the task—your brain. And with specific mindhacks based on creative thinking and learning, you’ll be able to get and stay future ready no matter what comes your way.

Ann Herrmann-Nehdi travels the world as a speaker, author and thought leader helping people, teams and organizations apply what we know about the brain to improve personal and business performance. As CEO of Herrmann International, she continues to build on the pioneering research of her father, whose studies revealed four patterns in how the brain perceives and processes information. This led to the development of a system to understand one’s preferred mode of thinking and maximize the use of one’s entire brain to improve performance and results.
