Back to the Future – Retrofuture Foresight with Steve Wells30 Mar 202600:09:50
If you follow the headlines, it’s hard to escape the sense that we are standing on the edge of something unprecedented. Artificial intelligence is advancing at extraordinary speed. Machines are beginning to perform tasks once thought uniquely human. Entire industries are being reshaped in real time. It feels like the beginning of a radically new era.


But here’s a useful pause for thought: Every generation, when confronted with powerful new technologies, has felt exactly the same.


So in this episode of the podcast, I will explore the value of looking back, to make sense of the rapidly emerging future.

Transformation of Work (part 3) with Steve Wells05 Mar 202600:12:30

Over three podcast episodes, I am exploring The Transformation of Work by 2040. In the first episode https://open.spotify.com/episode/5fbqKnkuQzY8vCsHhgmzg7 I reviewed key drivers and explored a number of potential future business models. In the second https://open.spotify.com/episode/3HgXWRvPrDvK6zZllqAPFM I shared some thoughts the skills evolution; which skills might diminish in importance and which will be of emerging or increasing importance, and then explored a number of possible future jobs.


In this, the third and final episode of this mini-series, I will share the three work models and consider what I think this means for organisations now.


This series of three podcast episodes is based on a presentation I recently gave at the Corporate World Intelligence event exploring digital transformation in HR, in Dubai. In my presentation, I explored how technology, culture, and business could redefine employment and work by 2040. I looked at skills evolution, what sort of new jobs we might seein 2040, looked at the key drivers of change, explored three different work models and their supporting business models, and shared five key take-aways.

Emotion in Organisational Change with Jennifer Bryan15 Jan 202600:23:50
On this podcast we have considered not only technological, geo-political, social, and environmental issues impacting the future of life society and business, but also some of the essential evolving leadership capabilities. Developing new and different perspectives on how we enable a smooth transition into our rapidly changing reality is just as important as considering the trends and weak signals we observe in our foresight.


In this episode of the Informing Choices mini-pod, we will consider one of those enabling capabilities and explore Emotion in Organisational Change. To do this, I am delighted to welcome change expert and author, Jennifer Bryan to the pod.

The Twelve Days of Tech-mas with Steve Wells16 Dec 202500:06:00
I usually do something a little different around Christmas or the New Year on the Informing Choice’s Mini-pod; for example the episodes; “Five for 25 – Hopes and Fears for 2025 with five Futurist Friends of the Podcast” (here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAEcQ1yXvqY) and “The Future of Christmas with Steve Wells and Friends” (here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qar80wIchms).


But this year for a giggle, I thought I’d put generative AI … and my voice … to work. So I asked ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and Perplexity to help me take the Twelve Days of Christmas song and tech it up for the festive season!


So, here goes …… don’t forget to sing along! Happy holidays!


By the way, if you want the visuals to go with the song, hop over to YouTube: https://youtu.be/o3QeSr41hus

Accounting in the Metaverse with Steve Wells06 Aug 202500:13:20
In May 2025 I spoke at the Accountex 2025 event in London, an event that brings together accounting professionals, software and service suppliers with a CPD-accredited education programme. My topic was all about navigating the opportunities presented to the accounting profession by the metaverse as a platform for engaging with traditional clients and as an immersive place to conduct virtual business for virtual clients in a virtual space.


So building on my presentation, in this episode, I explore how the metaverse is set to reshape the accounting profession—from immersive client engagement in virtual offices to managing digital assets and compliance in virtual worlds.

The Future of Beverages with Trisha Mehta21 Apr 202500:16:49
According to Design Futurist and Social Entrepreneur Trisha Mehta, “Beverages are having an identity crisis. They’re no longer just liquids in bottles- they’re interfaces, systems, rituals, and occasionally, biotech experiments in disguise. Think lab-grown everything, AI-enhanced hydration, refill networks replacing retail, and psychoactive sips edging into wellness culture.”


With that as context, we are going to explore The Future of Beverages; the critical drivers of change, technological innovations, and the changing experience of consuming beverages.

Realising UN SDGs through Inner Development Goals (IDGs) with Paula DosSantos Papel20 Jan 202500:22:50

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) represent a balanced template with which we might collectively address the global challenge of creating a sustainable future by paying attention to the economic, environmental, and social enablers of change. But what skills could act as valuable enablers to achieving the goals?


In this episode of the podcast, Consultant, Analyst, Project Leader Paula dos Santos Papel and I will explore how the Inner Development Goals (IDGs) align with the UN SDGs. We will shed light on how these human skills and qualities differ from traditional leadership traits and their transformative potential in navigating an increasingly complex, uncertain world. We will explore how IDGs empower us to address existential risks while unlocking the immense possibilities of our shared future.

The Future of Biophilic Design with Vanessa Champion06 Jan 202500:24:48
In the world of design, a spectrum of methodologies shapes how we build and move. From modernist minimalism to cutting-edge parametric design, each approach brings its own priorities—efficiency, aesthetics, or technology. Among these, two methodologies take their cues directly from nature: biophilic design and biomimicry. While they share a connection to the natural world, they couldn’t be more distinct in their purpose and application.


In today’s episode, Director of Vanessa Champion Media and Founding Editor of The Journal of Biophilic Design, Vanessa Champion and I will explore biophilic design—a practice that goes beyond just mimicking nature's mechanics to fostering a relationship between human beings and their environments.

The Future of Connected Entertainment Experiences (part 1) with Rachel Noonan16 Oct 202400:23:52

In this episode of the podcast, in collaboration with Sylvia Gallusser and Silicon Humanism, we are going to explore “The Future of Connected Entertainment Experiences”. "Connected Entertainment" refers to a new paradigm of interactive, personalised, and networked experiences across digital media. It represents a shift from passive consumption of content to dynamic engagement, where complimentary technologies collaborate to deliver more intelligent, adaptive, and connected entertainment. For example, AI enhances content personalisation by analysing user preferences and behaviours to create customised experiences, while immersive technologies make these experiences more engaging by blurring the line between physical and digital realities. Entertainment systems can be networked, allowing for shared, real-time interactions between users globally, often integrating social elements, multiplayer platforms, and virtual communities. To explore the Future of Connected Entertainment Experiences, Sylvia and I are joined by Forward Studio Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer Rachel Noonan.

Reflection and Speculation – The 100th Podcast Episode with Steve Wells27 Mar 202400:12:14
Having reached the notable milestone of 100 episodes of my podcast, I wanted to do something a little different. To a lesser or greater extent, I have covered different aspects of: Communication; Education and Skills; Enterprise and Economy; Food and Agriculture; Health and Wellbeing; Jobs and Work; the Natural Environment; Politics and Geopolitics; Social and Societal Shifts; Sustainability; and of course, Technology and Systems. But it is often technology that ties these topic areas together. All of which got me thinking: 1) What were the technological innovations that had a profound impact on life, society, and business, 100 years ago? 2) And what might the technological advancements be that achieve the same recognition in 100 years’ time? So this episode is about my thoughts on the five technologies significant in the 1920’s and those that could be significant in the 2120’s.

A Day in the Life of an Enhanced Human in 2050 with Rohit Talwar14 Feb 202400:40:36

Human enhancements can cover a wide range of capabilities, from increased strength, endurance, and speed to enhanced memory, focus, and emotional control. They may also extend to more sophisticated modifications such as the integration of digital interfaces directly with the human brain, allowing for direct communication with computers and other digital devices, or the augmentation of sensory perceptions; for example, seeing a broader spectrum of light or hearing beyond the normal range. So, with this as context, the question we are addressing in this episode of the podcast is, “what might a day in the life of an enhanced human in 2050 be like?” To explore this fascinating question, I am delighted to welcome back to the podcast futurist and keynote speaker Rohit Talwar.  You can learn more about Rohit and his work by connecting with him as follows: Email: Rohit@fastfuture.com LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/rohit-talwar-futurist-keynote-speaker Twitter: https://twitter.com/fastfuture Website: https://fastfuture.com Credits Images Titles https://pixabay.com/photos/doors-choices-choose-decision-1690423 Other images OpenAI DALL-E Video https://pixabay.com/videos/human-dna-code-science-medical-5458 Music PIXABAY LICENSE CERTIFICATE This document confirms the download of an audio file pursuant to the Content License as defined in the Pixabay Terms of Service available at https://pixabay.com/service/terms Licensor Username: https://pixabay.com/users/zen_man-4257870 Licensee: Steve-Wells Audio File Title: Background Loop Chill Techno#05 Audio File URL: https://pixabay.com/music/electronic-background-loop-chill-techno-05-3511 Audio File ID: 3511 Date of download: 2023-07-13 13:17:07 UTC Pixabay GmbH c/o Lacore Rechtsanwälte LLP Berliner Freiheit 2, 10785 Berlin, Germany.

Design Fiction – Provoking the Future with Gina Clifford07 Feb 202400:31:44

There are a number of different approaches, models, and frameworks to help us explore the future – or potential futures - from driver mapping to horizon scanning, scenario development to design fiction, to mention just a few. Today, we are going to focus on design fiction which can be defined as a creative approach that speculates about possible futures through the design and portrayal of products, services, or scenarios. It blends storytelling and futurism with design thinking to explore the implications of emerging technologies and social trends. But what role can design fiction have in helping us consider the future? To help address this question, I am delighted to welcome back friend of the podcast, strategic communicator and futurist Gina Clifford.

Deepfakes: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly with Sylvia Gallusser & Tunu Wamai18 Jan 202400:32:33

Deepfakes are synthetic media that have been digitally manipulated, often using artificial intelligence and machine learning, to make it appear as if someone is saying or doing something they never did. To achieve this, a person's face or voice is superimposed onto another person's body or audio recording. Deepfakes – like pretty much any technology family - can be used for a variety of purposes, both good and bad. Some common uses of deepfakes include entertainment, art, education, but also fraud, reputational damage, and other criminal activity. For this podcast episode I am delighted to welcome Tunu Wamai; an Economics and Political Science graduate of Minerva University and creator of Tech Policy – The Human Perspective blog (link in the podcast details), and Global Futurist and Metaverse Strategist Sylvia Gallusser.

The Evolution of the Identity Economy with Gina Clifford, Sylvia Gallusser, & Rob Tyrie08 Jan 202400:22:56

Identity economics is a branch of economics that explores how our identities influence our economic decisions. It argues that people can be motivated by a desire to maintain a consistent sense of self, which in turn means that our identities can play a role in determining our choices about work, consumption, and other economic activities. So how can generative AI – and other technologies and change drivers – impact the evolution of an identity economy across life, society, and enterprise?

Today, Global Futurist & Metaverse Strategist Sylvia Gallusser and I are joined on the podcast by strategic communicator and futurist Gina Clifford and technology innovator Rob Tyrie to explore the evolution of identity economics.

Generative AI – An Exploration of Alternative Futures with Gina Clifford, Sylvia Gallusser, and Rob Tyrie04 Jan 202400:43:36

In this third episode of a mini-series in which Global Futurist and Metaverse Strategist Sylvia Gallusser and I are exploring the future of media, news, and content creation we explore three scenarios from 2050: Frugal AI – AI for greater good, characterised by effective regulation, with personal identity safety a priority; Tech Supercharged World - with lots of immersion, interactive assets, fully automated content creation, and the harnessing of identity; and The Reality Continuum – A transformation scenario with device and platform plurality, tools to help us identify if content is human or AI leading to the normalisation of AI.

We are joined by strategic communicator and futurist Gina Clifford and technology innovator Rob Tyrie to share new perspectives on the scenarios and broaden the debate.
