Erica Orange’s Speech Topics

  • Reimagining the Future of Trust + Truth

    Today, there is a growing vacuum of trust. Our future will demand that we choose trust – trust in each other; trust in strategy; trust in our society; trust in progress – and we all need to find ways to put that into action because trust has become a precious commodity. We are also living in a time when the lines between what is real, fake, true and false are becoming more blurred, so reliance on human-centric solutions, not just technological ones, will become more critical.

  • Think Like a Futurist

    Being future ready requires not just lifelong learning…but forgetting. How do we begin to forget the stuff we’re holding onto that doesn’t serve us for where the future is moving? This requires getting out the “mental cobwebs” and seeing through new eyes. It’s about leaving past assumptions behind and approaching the ways in which we see the world and our organizations in a new light.

  • Templosion: The Accelerator Effect

    Templosion describes the fact that the biggest of things and the biggest of events are happening in shorter and shorter periods of time. Everything from corporate lifespans to financial planning cycles to the way in which we communicate is becoming more abbreviated. And technological innovation is happening at breakneck speed. Time is being truncated, and our experience of time is in overdrive.

  • Generational Compression: Redefining Gen Z

    Generations have long been grouped in birth year cohorts of 15-20 years. But generations are now seemingly refreshing every 2-3 years. Technology is changing so rapidly that kids only a few years apart struggle to have the same cultural and technological frames of reference. Understanding what makes this generation tick is critical for talent management, marketing, education/learning, etc.
