Imagine ourselves in 2043

A collective, speculative view of our lives 20 years from now.

The survey is now closed. You can see the results here.

This note is not part of the regular newsletter. It is an exceptional message, a call for participation in a survey. The regular format will continue in future notes.

I’m preparing a website and podcast about our future in 20 years.

My research includes seeking input from people around the world. (Survey link at the bottom)

The goal of the survey is to bring together ideas from around the world on a 2043 vision.  How do people see the future? What should we be thinking about? What should we be preparing for? 

Imagine ourselves in 2043....

The survey has 14 questions, and covers a range of topics. For each topic, I ask you to place a cursor between two opposing future perspectives, and to add a few comments. I also ask you to share your ideas about other topics to explore. Overall, the survey takes 15 to 20 minutes.

As a thank you for your contribution of ideas, I’ll be happy to send you a hardback copy of my book The Gig Mindset Advantage, A Bold New Breed.

There’s a place at the end of the survey to request your free copy, and/or to be notified when the survey results are published.

The topics....

• cities and urban society,

• wealth distribution,

• healthcare,

• corporations seeking profit or social impact,

• big data,

• jobs and employment,

• social media,

• the arts,

• education,

• role of scientists,

• world governance,

• climate change,

• and belief systems.
