Abstract

In this interview, Alvin Toffler, Tom Johnson, and Larry Bennigson talk about the forces driving change and how business leaders can stay abreast of the threats and opportunities arising out of these changes. The biggest strategic threat to many successful businesses will come from the external environment that tends to be outside the peripheral vision of corporate leadership. Culture, religion, politics, environment, and ethics are all going to interpenetrate one another to an extent never before seen. They will, in turn, penetrate business in all sorts of strange new ways.

Today, business competition is like a duck shoot at twilight; you can barely see the target, which keeps moving and changing its profile, and you lose if you fail to hit it. Be assured then, that if about a thousand corporate executives take time out from negotiating the hazards of a recessionary economy to attend a conference, they expect results and value for their money no less than if they made a similar investment in consultancy advice. Still more so, for the significant number who travel halfway around the world to hear speakers address them in a tongue other than their own.
