Realigning with Purpose

Institute of Design (ID) + Kaplan Institute

Those who embrace purpose emerge as winners—a pre-SXSW discussion of Fjord, Accenture, and IIT Institute of Design reports.

Kaplan Institute

ProgramAs businesses reconsider their relationships with people, enterprise partners, and the world at large, what’s emerging is nothing short than a major realignment of fundamentals. This shift, partly driven by society’s ever-increasing love for technology, is presenting opportunities to innovate operating models, services, and products around new definitions of value. In this pre-SXSW discussion, we’ll present the unique perspectives of two new Accenture reports, <a href="https://trends.fjordnet.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Fjord Trends 2020</a> and <a href="https://www.accenture.com/us-en/insights/technology/technology-trends-2020" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Technology Vision</a>, as well as IIT Institute of Design&#x27;s report, <a href="https://id.iit.edu/lead-with-purpose/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Lead with Purpose</a>, to show how those who embrace their long-term impact and purpose in the systemic complexity of the world will emerge as winners.11am: Partner/Friend of IIT Lunch in Steelcase Commons12:45pm: Program Begins1:45pm: Student Lunch Pickup 2pm: Program EndsLunchCorporate partners and friends of IIT, please join us for a lunch at 11am in Steelcase Commons.

We are an international community of learners and practitioners who are addressing the biggest issues of our time by eliciting a power unique to humans: creativity.
