Knowing What to Expect in 2008 -- Lecture by Mitchell Levy March 18, 2008

How often do you hear about large multinational companies being "surprised" by demographic, economic, or political trends in the marketplace? Why do you think that, as a group, these firms are remarkably well prepared to maximize the economic opportunities that "luck" brings them?

Simple: They talk to each other. At Business Roundtables, social organizations, service groups - wherever CEOs gather, they discuss coming trends and give each other the benefit of their individual insights.

Now Mitchell Levy, Publisher (Happy About Publishing), and Director, Silicon Valley Executive Business Program. - The Man with the Killer Rolodex - has harnessed the insight of his network to produce a new book: "Happy About Knowing What to Expect in 2008 - getting a handle on the year ahead." To produce the book, he interviewed 50 Business Executives and distilled their collective wisdom into 179 pages chock full of predictions, analysis and easy to use guidance about what to expect in 2008.

Come and hear what business and social trends will be affecting your business in the coming months. Find out what trends will offer the best opportunities, where YOUR clients can expect the toughest challenges, and how you can prepare to serve them.

This is not the first year Mitchell has tried his hand at predicting the business future. His record for the last few years has been very good. He seems to have a knack for using this interview method and selecting the key business trends for the coming year:
