Fit for the Future: how can chief operating officers prepare?

 

PA Consulting Group is running a series of round-table events for the chief operating officers of major quoted companies or equivalent organisations. The next event in the series takes place in London on Wednesday 19 October, when we will be addressing the theme:

Getting fit for an uncertain future: the trends that will change our world

The keynote speech will be delivered by David Bodanis, futurologist, former University of Oxford lecturer and author of 'E=mc²', 'Electric Universe' and 'Passionate Minds'. David specialises in analysing changes in technology, economics and social behaviour to forecast the major trends that will affect businesses in the next 15-20 years. 
 

Our event will bring together senior leaders in operations from across various industries to share their insights and experiences.

 Particular areas for discussion will include: 

  • emerging social and business trends, as observed by leading FTSE organisations and economic observers

  • the potential impact on business operations, and strategies for managing through them.

The format of our round-table events is simple and informal, and always results in a lively and insightful discussion: 

  • 6.30pm-7.00pm – arrival and networking reception

  • 7.00pm-7.30pm – keynote speech by David Bodanis

  • 7.30pm-9.30pm – round-table discussion over dinner 

 

The discussion will be held under the Chatham House Rule.
