3. 17 May – Peter Fisk on Game Changers
A new generation of businesses is rising out of the maelstrom of economic and
technological change across our world. These companies are shaking up the
world. In Gamechangers Peter Fisk has sought out the brands and businesses,
large and small, from every continent, who are changing the game and shows how
we can learn the best new approaches to strategy and leadership, innovation and
marketing from them.
Gamechangers are disruptive and innovative, they are more ambitious, with
stretching vision and enlightened purpose. They find their own space, then
shape it in their own vision. Most of all they have great ideas. They outthink their
competition, thinking bigger and different. They don’t believe in being slightly
cheaper or slightly better. Why be 10% better, when you could be 10 times better?
11 October – Andrew Hatcher on Metrics
This Guide takes a wide ranging look at the world of marketing measurement
including what role those measurements play, how to make them effective and
how they can be used to drive subsequent commercial decision-making. It starts
by considering the role of marketing. It then looks in detail at the key areas of
marketing metrics. It also looks at different measurement techniques in different
contexts. It then looks in detail at measures of marketing performance and of
marketing activities. Finally, it considers sources of data for metrics, how metrics
can impact on each other and the tools available for marketing insight and strategic
decision-making.
14 June – Alan Moore on No Straight Lines
In No Straight Lines, Alan Moore argues that we have reached the nadir of the
adaptive range of our industrialised world. Now faced with an unsustainable
trilemma of social, organisational and economic complexity, we have entered an era
in which the rules we have previously organised our lives around no longer apply.
Leaving us with both a design problem and a design challenge which we must
urgently solve.
