the thinkertank newsletter

ThinkerTank is a futures studio that I founded. We provide research and advisory services, built on the idea of wanting to make people more informed about what’s happening in the world around them and what that means for the future. We’re committed to making you more informed about what’s coming so that you can prepare now for what’s next and in doing so, take a more active role in shaping the kind of future you want, because if you don’t you’ll just end up living in a world that was designed for someone else.

I also take a glass half-full approach. Because whenever I talk to the people around me, there’s this view that the world sucks and we’re all going to hell in a hand-basket. But through my work, I’m convinced that the future is something that we should look forward to. And that’s where the newsletter comes in.

It will land in your inbox each month, profiling a series of curated trends that may not have made the front page of the news, but nonetheless give us an insight into how we might live, work, and play in the future.

book: the kickass career

Work is a massive part of our lives. If work changes, we change. And change we will. Change is happening at the fastest rate in human history. It’s also the slowest you’ll experience change for the rest of your life. And according to the experts, we’ll have at least 17 different jobs across 5 completely separate careers. Many of those jobs don’t even exist yet, with 25-40% of jobs set to be automated by 2030. This makes navigating the new world of work more complex than ever before. Society is evolving, technology is advancing, and jobs are changing. And that was before a global pandemic. But we’re approaching new challenges with old ideas, which is why there’s a need for a fresh take on careers and how you can succeed in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. ‘The Kickass Career: How to succeed in the future of work, now‘ throws conventional career advice out the window and takes a new approach. It will help you to better understand what’s happening in the world of work, why it matters to you, and what you can do about it. It’s designed to help you have the mindset, skills, and know-how for building a successful career in a volatile, uncertain and ambiguous environment.
