What it’s all about in 80 words:
Wildly altered context (technology, China-India, global terrorism, etc.)
Only answer: Adaptive skills and bold-breathtaking innovation (top-line focus rather
than cost-cutting focus)
Race way, way up the value-added curve (implemented “game-altering solutions”
rather than “services,” “experiences” rather than “transactions,” and more)
Radical (!!!) use of IS-IT
A “Roster” of Weird & Wondrous & Entrepreneurial “Talent” engaged in
“Wow Projects”
“Metabolic Leadership” (Passionate Leaders who instill a Discipline of Execution,
a Quick Tempo Culture and an appetite to “Eat Radical Change for Breakfast”)

“The senior sweepstakes kicks into high gear this weekend as the first baby boomers turn 60 and states, cities, and small towns mount ad campaigns to attract up-and-coming retirees and their spending power.”
As Re-imagine! readers know, the pursuit of the boomer-geezer market is one of my hobbyhorses. So: What, precisely, are your boomer-geezer product-development and marketing-distribution plans? Despite the staggering #s (80M boomers in the U.S. alone, commanding Trillion$$$ in dollar-power), damn few firms have made a … Strategic Commitment … to this market. Hint: This is not a “Citigroup issue” issue/opportunity. It is an opportunity for almost all of us!

Our captain was a natural, though. He not only nipped a potential passenger riot in the bud, he also won over a tough crowd with his candor and charm. As unlucky as we felt to be on a thrice-delayed flight, we felt fortunate to have flown with him.

Food forecasters are predicting some provocative trends, including such possibilities as Christian-raised chicken, and diet and beauty advice from experts as you shop for groceries.
Trend expert Faith Popcorn, keynote speaker at the Future of Food conference last month in Washington.
Popcorn also told food executives at the conference, which was sponsored by the supermarket industry, that it’s a myth women love to grocery shop — they really hate it. They’d like it a lot more, Popcorn said, if it were “an experience” in which they could participate, such as by talking to a nutritionist or beauty expert about new products.
