Futurology

In the last episode of the Futurology Show (for now) the team discusses the guests who have been on the show, things that have changed, and what will change in the future. They explore what has been learnt and look back... way back... to throw forward about what’s coming next for the team.

Part 1 of #ThinkDigital futurology looks at where we are going in 2018. What does digital mean to us? How do we need to embrace digital to redefine our lives and our businesses? 2018 also brings a lot of change for the Futurology Show - which we will discuss this week and next.

In this podcast we chat to Tony Hughes about how you can bring the customer experience to life. Tony is the most read person in LinkedIn on B2B selling and shares his thinking on leadership, business-to-business (B2B) strategic sales, modernised selling, and sales enabling technologies.

Roelia Malan from FNB wants to live in a world filled with innovative people inventing extraordinary, and beautiful yet less complicated methods to perform day to day activities where ideas can be transformed into practical solutions in a blink of an eye. As a banker with over 10 years’ experience, she has worked in the fields of marketing, sales, business operations and more recently customer experience for the biggest call centre at the most innovative bank in the world.

In this podcast we chat to Andrew Vorster, who shares his thinking about understanding your customer through data. Although Andrew has spent the last 20 years living in the UK, he is first and foremost an “Imbongi” – an African Storyteller, an honorific he picked up in his youth when armed with a portable slide projector, he would entertain the locals from surrounding farms with stories of far off places that his father had travelled to, regaling them with tales of cultures and technologies that had not yet reached our shores. Today, as an Innovation Consultant, it is he who travels far and wide in search of the impacts and implications that technologies and innovations are having on society, industry and the individuals within, acting as a catalyst to create the story of a future not yet written.
