For many years China was considered a basketcase with its population, resigned to a life of poverty in the rice fields . Yet today, 120 million Chinese tourists go abroad each year, often snapping up all of the latest trinkets of luxury brands like YSL, Prada and Chanel. In the last ten years alone, China’s GNP has increased from US$4.6T to over US$12T dollars, in fact, in 1985, that number was less than $500B. Less than 25 times what it is today. To put this into perspective, in the same timeframe, the United States’ GNP has little more than doubled, from US$8T in 1989 to about $17.5T today. So how did this happen and what can corporate innovators learn from this? --- If you’d like to receive a weekly email from me, complete with reflections, books I’ve been reading, words of wisdom and access to blogs, ebooks and more that I’m publishing on a regular basis, just head over to www.futuresquared.xyz/subscribe and you’ll get the very next one.

On 17 January 1944, the Office of the Strategic Services of the CIA issued the Simple Sabotage Field Manual. The manual remained classified for decades, becoming declassified in 2008. The purpose of the manual was to present suggestions for inciting and executing sabotage. The manual is full of 1940s references such as ‘axis nationals’, the latter no doubt falling victim to many of the manual’s methods. The manual breaks methods down into a number of categories such as Buildings, Manufacturing and Organisations. For example, on Buildings it states: whenever possible, arrange to have a fire start after you have gone away").  What’s striking about this section of the manual is its section on Interference with Organisations. Their suggested methods sound a lot of the dated management practices that plague large organisations today. In this episode of Fast Fix Friday I’m going to read out 5 ways you might be sabotaging your organisation. --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/fut

Arj started his career in comedy after graduating from high school in 1989. His first gigs were at an old café called Caffe Nuvo in downtown San Anselmo where he hosted stand-up night every Sunday throughout the early 1990s. Barker has appeared on Premium Blend, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and The Glass House. He twice hosted Comedy Central Presents and was featured in Comedy Central's animated series Shorties Watchin' Shorties. Barker appeared in the HBO sitcom Flight of the Conchords and has enjoyed success in Australia for a number of years since first appearing at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2000 and is currently in Melbourne as part of his We Need To Talk tour. You might be wondering why I invited a comedian to appear on the show. For one, there are many parallels between making it as a comedian, a musician, an athlete and an entrepreneur and we explore them in today’s conversation. That and Arj’s show, which I was lucky enough to catch on the Saturday night before this convers

On October 23, 2001, using the slogan “1000 songs in your pocket”, Steve Jobs introduced the original iPod which left us enamoured and with it he ushered in a new age that, with the launch of the iPhone six years later in 2007, would go on to fundamentally change the way we interact with the world around us.

Jon Satterley is an experienced entertainment & media industry executive and thought leader. I have been recognized as an innovator with expert knowledge of new products, emerging technology and digital business strategy.   When he was just 17, Jon started a record label and wound up signing hundreds of bands while studying to get his law degree.  Jon led digital strategy for Roadrunner Records: growing from a small independent record company to become one of the world’s leading labels. Today, Jon is the Chief Digital Officer at Village Roadshow, and we’ve been working together on the Xperience Accelerator, a program that brings together startups working with VR/AR and Village to develop new applications for the entertainment industry.   We explored lots of questions during this conversation, often going off on tangents, and three things you can expect to learn: Why Jon decided to pursue his record label instead of a career in law and what helped him shun societal expectations in favour of

In the early days of Collective Campus, like most new organisations, we kept ourselves afloat by taking part time jobs on the side and working with a number of small clients who paid us just enough to keep the lights on. After building up enough case studies and collateral working with smaller organisations, we worked our way up and eventually hooked our first big A-list client, a global law firm with over 1,200 employees and revenues in excess of US$1B. Long story short, we f*cked up. In this instalment of Fast Fix Friday, I reveal how we screwed up and what we did about it that was a critical juncture in our organisation's 'growing up'.  --- Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!
