My guest today is Terence C.M. Tse, an educator, speaker, advisor and commentator. He is a co-founder of Nexus FrontierTech and co-author of "Understanding How the Future Unfolds: Using Drive to Harness the Power of Today's Mega Trends." His mantra is "You can't predict the future, but you can be ready with a plan." Terence's book focuses on a term he calls "Presentcasting." He does not promote forecasting but rather teaches people to look at what's in front of them and see how things are unfolding in current time. He has created the acronym DRIVE – defining 5 interrelated mega trends: demographic and social changes, resource scarcity, inequalities, volatility, complexity and scale and enterprising dynamics. These are the five directions Terence points clients in when they start thinking about improving their lives.
