As we begin the journey into another year, we are prepping our team and tools to be ready and ahead of the game plan to bring you the necessary coaching and leadership you would expect from your business strategic coaching partner.

So what does 2018 look like? Your guess is as good as anyone else’s, but there are a few indicators that we are looking at to help understand the trends for the next 12 months. We will be keeping a close eye on these to watch for new developments in each area.

We will unpack some of these during this next week, but here is a short summary of some of them:

Health – We will see a huge leap forward on gene editing and anti-ageing moving into human trials. Also, polio and Diabetes type 1 will see new vaccines.

Space – If all goes well, we will see three countries get to the moon, asteroid exploration and two deep space missions launched to Mars and Mercury

Electric Cars – We will see the commercial rollout of new brands and mass production of electric cars

Fintech – Bitcoin and cryptocurrency will keep us entertained but watch out for AI as it drives investment management: good or bad, we will have to see

Environment – Icebergs, water, climate change and the debate will continue. The deep drilling through the earth’s crust will start once a safe location is chosen from three proposed sites

More on these in later posts.

We have also developed a new formula for success for 2018. This based on research and the above trends and developments. This formula we will be using to unpack our tools over the next quarter for both ourselves and our clients.

So here it is 2018 success = RI2

Welcome to the new year. We trust that it will be a success as we work together.
