K D Adamson    

Futurist & Ecocentrist

Leading female futurist and ecocentrist K D Adamson argues that the most important relationship we have is with the future, and the future has got stuck in the past. Pinpointing the cherished societal and business certainties set to be dismantled, as an accelerating global syndemic distorts our understanding of intrinsic value, she fundamentally reframes the future that could, and should, replace them.

An adviser, presenter, keynote speaker, writer & filmmaker, whose performances have been likened to a TED talk on steroids, she is a global authority on the sustainable transformation of business and future value creation and expert in organizational transformation, ESG, leadership, technology & digitalization and the blue, green and circular economies.

Adamson's stellar client list spans every continent and industry including major global brands, multi-nationals, governments, non-profits and NGOs.

Speech Topics

The New Moral Age

Purpose, eligibility, equity and business value is being redefined by zero-tolerance New Crusaders for our New Moral Age.

  • The Ashes & The Flame: A New Value Nexus, causative leadership, ESG and the Great P.I.V.O.T is about to make legacy business culture and leadership obsolete.

  • The F-Word: FREE is a four-letter word abused by the global Suggestion Economy destroying our collective understanding of value and values.

  • The WHealth Ecosystem: Food, health and finance are market failures unfit for the New Moral Age, Caveat Venditor will create a net-new WHealth ecosystem.

The Global Syndemic

  • Taking the Red Pill: Most data isn’t new and it’s used to sell us stuff. Covid-19 exposed how little we really know, and the opportunity for us to change that.

  • The Global Syndemic: A synergy of co-occurring epidemics in economics, health, ecology and technology means our global system is about to stall.

  • Invent Horizon: The global economy was a great start up but it won’t scale, so innovation has to be jettisoned in favor of invention.

NOBELIZATION: The future of business

The dawning of a New Moral Age where profit is not the only metric is undermining the foundations of business. ESG, Agility, purpose-led business and the blue, green and circular economy will all be crucial. The future is not globalization but nobelization, and it demands bold vision inspired by purpose, articulated authentically, executed consistently and translated effectively into sustainable, generative momentum.

From re-booting digital transformation to re-calibrating value, re-imagining competition to re-defining innovation companies must create holistic and dynamic sustainable transformation strategies, which are resistant to prolonged uncertainty and encompass not just technology and digitalization but cultural resilience and depth.
