Mentality of Success: Learning from the Immigrant Business ExperienceRichard Herman
bThis presentation was made on 4/21/2012 at the National Hispanic Leadership Conference. The goal is to highlight the amazing success stories of immigrant entrepreneurs, and to encourage others (especially non-immigrants) to "Think and Act Like an Immigrant" (quote from billionaire Omid Kordestani, 12th employee of Google, inventor of its business model, and immigrant from Iran/UK).
The document discusses Canada's potential for economic and strategic power in the coming decades. It notes that Canada has consistently innovated and punched above its weight, especially in technology and natural resources. However, Canada is often underestimated by outsiders. The document argues that in the next 20 years, Canada will benefit economically from its large oil reserves and growing trade with China and the US. It posits that Canada is poised to become a major global economic and strategic player if it focuses on areas like technology and entrepreneurship.
Boomers are single-handedly re-defining what it means to age, giving rise to a brand new lifestage, 'The Second Act'. If you'd like a free PDF of BOOM! visit our site.
This document discusses generational differences in the modern multigenerational workforce. It outlines key events and attributes of four main generations currently in the workforce - the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y. There are intergenerational conflicts as each generation has a different perspective and approach to work based on the historical context in which they came of age. Managing a multigenerational workforce requires understanding these differences to effectively engage and retain talent from all generations.
Generation Edge in India refers to those born between 1994-onwards, numbering at least 400 million people. They have grown up in a time of rapid changes and increased opportunities in India. While ambitious and wanting to chart their own path, they still face pressures from traditional values emphasizing stability, modesty and conformity. As the first generation with widespread access to technology and global influences, Generation Edge struggles to balance individualism with social expectations in a still largely conservative society. For brands, it is important to inspire and support this generation by showing them how to pursue their dreams and manage multiple identities, while making the most of opportunities in the present.

Cemep General Presentation (05/12/2012)ColegioCemep
The document discusses embracing internationalization at Colegio CEMEP. It aims to show how the world has changed rapidly in recent decades due to technological, social, economic, and geopolitical shifts. It argues that students now need a broader global perspective and skills like cross-cultural competence, digital literacy, and collaboration to succeed. The school plans to launch an internationalization program with options like classroom partnerships abroad, summer camps on global issues, exchanges for students and teachers, and enhancing the curriculum with courses on world topics. This aims to provide students with a future-focused education to navigate an increasingly complex world.
This document calls citizens to action against large banks and corporations that do not pay taxes, have contributed to high unemployment and poverty rates, and have consolidated wealth at the expense of the middle class. It provides numerous statistics about the economic crisis and its impacts. It argues the current system is rigged in favor of the wealthy and controlled by lobbyists, not citizens, and calls for reform to return power to the people and sovereignty to governments over private banks that control money supply and lending practices.
This document provides an overview of American men in the early 2010s by examining realities, icons, and memes. It discusses the changing demographics of the US, with declining white population percentages and growing ethnic diversity. Economically, it notes the illusion of widespread prosperity fueled by debt, and outlines the current realities of uneven wealth distribution and declining prospects for many working-class men. It then examines prominent male icons from Hollywood and how they have reflected changing ideals of American manhood over time. Finally, it introduces the concept of "thought viruses" or memes that animate American cultural and political debates.
The document provides an introduction to understanding American men at the beginning of a new decade. It discusses that America is a diverse, immigrant nation making generalizations difficult. However, some common traits unite American men, such as a distinctive patriotism shaped by the country being founded by its people rather than inherited history. American men are also shaped by the interaction between their innate traits, national dreams/values expressed in media, and public debates exercising free speech rights. To understand American men, the document will examine realities, male icons, and influential memes.
This document discusses the four main generations currently in today's workforce: the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials. Each generation grew up during different eras and were shaped by significant events of their time. As a result, they have differing values, work ethics, and views of the world. Managing a multigenerational workforce can be challenging due to these generational differences, but research also shows that age alone does not determine job performance. Understanding each generation can help organizations better engage and retain all age groups.
For Goodness’ Sake: Satisfy the hunger for meaningful business Ogilvy
For Goodness Sake is about transforming businesses into “Purposeful Enterprises.” Business, being the most adaptable of human institutions, is already shifting to encompass the new priorities our global society is setting out, but a full change to purposeful enterprises—enterprises that exist for many interlocking reasons and strive for complex outcomes—will emerge only with great planning and thoughtfulness.
Immigrant Entrepreneurs: A Key to Rebuilding U.S. EconomyRichard Herman
new powerpoint to be delivered in detroit on 7/18 at the conference, "Immigration and Michigan's Future." Day-long conference to feature Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, major CEOs, President of Wayne State University, and a cast of thousands! The eyes of the nation will be watching Detroit. Can immigrants save detroit? I say --- yes! as part ofa new intercultural team with African American talent and entrepreneurs, and other diverse talent, as we work towards building the most powerful teams on the planet. We hope this conference helps galvanize efforts not only in Detroit and Michigan, but in struggling cities around the country. This city-driven, economic argument should be a MAIN PLANK of comprehensive immigration law reform. We are all immigrants!
This document discusses challenges facing Los Angeles and proposes solutions to improve its economic prospects. It notes that LA has experienced significant job and population losses in recent decades due to overregulation and high taxes that have driven out businesses. However, the author argues that LA still has strong fundamentals like a growing, diverse population and entrepreneurial immigrant communities that could support economic growth if basic reforms are implemented. The key is focusing on job creation, middle-class neighborhoods, and rebuilding infrastructure to create opportunities for upward mobility rather than just appealing to the wealthy.
Global Future Changes and Millennium ProjectJerome Glenn
Overview of global challenges, strategies, new technologies to improve the prospects for humanity from the Millennium Project and its annual State of the Future report
Who are Baby Boomers today? This is the question that this annual report tries to answer. By summarizing and highlighting the most compellingconclusions of academic research, polls,and media on the subject of Boomer
trends, Sabi’s annual BOOMer Report attempts to define key characteristics of the Boomer generation, as it
stands, today. Taken together, we hope these trends will paint as clear a picture as possible of the Baby Boomer generation in America in 2015.
The document discusses many trends in demographics, consumer behavior, and society. It notes that as fertility rates fall in Europe, the number of single-child families is rising. It also discusses trends like more young adults living with their parents, the impact of immigration on politics, and the unsustainability of large public sectors in countries like Greece. The document covers a wide range of social, economic, and consumer trends across different countries and populations.
"We Are All Immigrants" is a presentation that speaks to the urgent need to align our immigration policy with our job-creation goals. We can create jobs in America --- lots of them---- by flicking the switch and welcoming the job-creators from abroad. Compared to American-born, Immigrants are twice as likely to start a business, twice as likely to invent a new product, more likely have an advanced degree, and more likely to have the linguistic, cultural, and networking skill-set to sell U.S. products and services abroad. Immigrants are America's competitive advantage. It's time we stopped treating them like dirt. I've been talking about this for over 10 years! hoping that someone would listen.... and help save my hometown (Cleveland) and country! I'm an immigration lawyer ---- I know how broken the system is --- and how to FIX IT! I co-wrote a book, "Immigrant, Inc." to tell these stories. I co-wrote the immigration policy for the 30 chambers of commerce from Chicago to Pittsburgh. Awareness is increasing, through programs such as Global Michigan, Global Detroit, Global Cleveland, Global Pittsburgh, and others. NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg is one of the biggest champions of the notion that smart immigration reform can CREATE jobs in America and help revitalize its cities.
This document discusses inequality in Maryland and around the world. It provides data showing that wealth and income are increasingly concentrated at the top, both globally and within the U.S. and Maryland. Research shows that greater inequality is associated with worse social outcomes like lower life expectancy, higher crime, and less environmental sustainability. The document argues for policies like stronger unions, higher taxes on the wealthy, and pay ratio limits between top executives and median workers to promote a more equal distribution of wealth and reduce the problems caused by growing inequality.
The document discusses several perspectives on predicting the future including that the future is uncertain, predictions are often wrong, and it's difficult to foresee changes. It also explores trends related to population growth, economic development, environmental challenges, and reducing poverty that will impact the future global landscape. Futures thinking is presented as a way to stimulate imagination, encourage creativity, and help identify opportunities to shape the future in a wiser way.
1) Cocktails are mixed drinks that combine alcohol with other ingredients. They originated in the 19th century and have evolved significantly over time.
2) There are countless cocktail recipes as new ones are continually being created by bartenders around the world. Common cocktails include the martini, Manhattan, pink lady, and Moscow mule.
3) In the 19th century, cocktails gained popularity as refreshing drinks served cold with ice. Different eras saw the rise of certain cocktail styles, from spirit-forward drinks to vibrantly colored and flavorful mixtures.

The survey aimed to assess students' confidence and competence in various information literacy skills and examine expectations of these skills. Key findings included students reporting higher confidence than competence, and teachers having inflated views of students' skills compared to lecturers' expectations. Further analysis of the results could help align secondary and tertiary teaching of information literacy.
The document summarizes the Sarasota International Design Summit held in November 2007 in Florida. It discusses challenges around accommodating population growth in Florida through 2030 in a sustainable way that maintains a sense of community and quality of life. It outlines focus areas like energy, water, land use, and green building to work towards more sustainable communities. It also discusses strategic habitat conservation and greenways to protect natural areas and resources.

The document discusses opportunities in serving the growing aging baby boomer demographic across four main areas: health and healthy living, entrepreneurship and work, entertainment, and spirituality and giving back. It notes that baby boomers represent over $2 trillion in annual spending and are increasingly interested in health, wellness, technology, and staying active through hobbies as they age. The document advocates that entrepreneurs and companies should create innovative products and services targeting this large demographic.
Cool Uniforms and Flying Cars: The Evolving Workforce and the Challenge to ...Bill Wooten
1. The document discusses how the evolving workforce, known as knowledge workers, and changing expectations and technologies are challenging US businesses.
2. Key trends include a shrinking pool of skilled labor, changing family structures and gender roles, and different expectations around work-life balance from younger generations.
3. Technologies are transforming where and how work gets done, with many knowledge workers expecting flexibility in working remotely and setting their own schedules.
1) The document discusses trends showing that diversity is increasing globally and demographics are shifting, with minorities becoming the majority in many places.
2) It highlights how diversity positively impacts team performance and innovation, and makes the business case for diversity and inclusion from a financial perspective in terms of markets, talent, and operations.
3) It argues that companies must develop cross-cultural competence and an inclusive culture to succeed in a globalized world where different groups have different needs and worldviews.
This document proposes that credit unions create a Disability Counselor position to target the growing disabled community market segment. A Disability Counselor who is disabled themself could effectively communicate the credit union's capabilities to meet the unique needs of people with disabilities. Over 30% of Americans acquire a disability before retirement, and most will be disabled by age 75. As the population ages, the number of disabled and elderly Americans will also greatly increase. People with disabilities represent a sizable portion of household spending and assets, making them an attractive market for credit unions.
The document discusses challenges and opportunities for attracting and retaining talent in Texas. It notes that Texas will face a tight labor market as the Baby Boomer generation retires and the working age population grows more slowly. Younger generations, especially Generation Y, value quality of place factors like the environment, recreation, and diversity. Adapting to their needs and improving education will help Texas compete for talent going forward.
Juan Hernandez proposes building housing developments in the Americas to suit the needs of retiring Baby Boomers. This large and affluent generation is looking for affordable places to retire with access to healthcare, finances, communication, education, and recreation. Developments need to provide a quality lifestyle as well as opportunities for work and learning to engage this active generation. Meeting Baby Boomers' needs could attract many retirees to relocate abroad.
The document discusses many issues facing the United States including political polarization, economic inequality, environmental degradation, flaws in the democratic system, and societal problems. It argues that the current systems of government, economics, and society are not adequately addressing these challenges and proposes numerous reforms to improve democracy, reduce the influence of money in politics, strengthen worker and environmental protections, and promote shared prosperity and sustainability.
This document provides an overview of hot demographic trends, industries, businesses, and consumer trends for 2016. Some of the key points include:
- Generation Z (ages 0-15) and Millennials represent a large portion of the population and spending power, and retailers should tailor their marketing and products to these demographics.
- Pet ownership and spending on pets is rising, with opportunities in pet food, treats, supplies, and services. Clean technology and solar energy are also growing industries.
- Men's grooming and health/beauty is a $5.5 billion industry as men spend more on skin care, hair care, and anti-aging products.
- Millennials are

The Golden Economy: the consumer marketplace in an ageing societyukactive
- The document discusses the growing market of older consumers, as people are living longer and the population is aging. It notes that older consumers currently spend significant amounts and will continue to grow as a percentage of the total consumer population.
- However, it argues that older consumers should not be viewed as a single homogenous group. Factors like age, generation, income, values and cognitive abilities all impact consumer behavior and preferences differently for different older adults.
- Many companies have been slow to recognize and cater to the older consumer market. But those that understand the diversity within older age groups and segment them appropriately stand to benefit from the substantial spending of an aging population.
Senior living is a burgeoning industry driven by an exploding senior population and demand from an aging demographic with increasing needs for specialized residential requirements. This demand will drive strong growth in the senior living industry over the next several decades. The baby boomers are the largest generation in U.S. history, constituting a sizable demographic wave. With 82.8 million people born between 1946 and 1964, the baby boomers represent over 30% of the U.S. population. There is an estimate of 75 million baby boomers who are on the verge of retirement. For the next twenty years, an average of 10,000 people each day will reach age 65, which has historically been the retirement phase of life (Pew Research: http://pewrsr.ch/T4o2Hs ).

Generation X refers to those born between the early 1960s and early 1980s. They are typically more independent and skeptical of marketing than previous generations. When making purchases, Generation X consumers conduct extensive research online and value authentic brands that respect their independence. Effective marketing strategies for this generation involve providing ample product information on multiple platforms, personalized communication through email and direct mail, and avoiding stereotypes. Examples of successes include Miller Lite appealing to Gen X nostalgia and masculinity through packaging updates and sports star endorsements, as well as Dove's Campaign for Real Beauty empowering Gen X women. In contrast, Lifelock's dramatic marketing stunts were an epic failure that damaged the brand's credibility.
Tourism and Distribution - New Paradigm: ATEC, Sydney, 2007Anna Pollock
Anna Pollock gave a keynote presentation about trends, drivers, and paradigms affecting tourism. She discussed how increased connectivity and complexity have led to more uncertainty. While there has been more access to information and media over time, there is also less trust, attention, comfort, peace and time. New generations think differently and value community and customization. Recommendations included rethinking marketing models to engage customers and enable emergence; focusing on quality, service and care; learning to let go and engage residents; and investing in adaptable people and infrastructure.
The document discusses marketing strategies for different generations. Baby Boomers, born 1946-1964, are motivated consumers nearing retirement. Generation X, born 1965-1979, value work-life balance over salary and are skeptical of labels. Generation Y, born 1980-1994, are tech-savvy, brand-disloyal, and career-focused. Case studies show successful marketing to Gen X and Y focus on individuality, causes, and technology. All generations are impacted by recessions differently based on life stage.
This is a keynote presentation I made at Idaho State University on October 19, 2012 at the 5th Annual Thomas Geriatric Health Symposium in Pocatello, Idaho. It was also streamed to the Meridian campus. I discuss demographics, how boomers will change the aging culture and the impact on Medicare and Social Security.
Bryan Sims, 24 year-old CEO of brass|MEDIA Inc., speaks at a credit union conference about the importance of reaching Generation Y to the financial services industry. Sims outlines basic demographic information of Gen Y, provides statistics illustrating the difficulties in reaching them, shows the power of changing media and technology, while giving examples of how other financial institutions have successfully created programs that resonate with young adults.
brass|MEDIA Inc. is a multimedia and technology company that produces brass|MAGAZINE, a lifestyle money magazine written for young adults, by young adults.
Falling birth rates around the world pose a threat to human welfare and economic stability. Rapidly declining populations will slow economic growth, strain government finances, and make it difficult to support aging populations as the ratio of working people to retired people falls dramatically. Many developed nations now have fertility rates below 2.1 children per woman, the level needed to replace the population. While some developing nations still have high birth rates, these are starting to fall as well. The long term consequences of sustained low fertility could include population decline and even human extinction if trends continue.
This document outlines three major paradigm shifts that will impact society in the 21st century: 1) A disproportionately large elderly population as baby boomers retire, straining social programs. 2) Increased life expectancy, requiring longer retirements and placing greater financial burden. 3) Transition to a knowledge-based workforce as physical labor is replaced by technology, requiring different job skills. The key message is that individuals need to take control of their financial planning and not rely solely on government programs to fund longer retirements in this changing environment.

On June 11-16, several important international events were organized and they are expected
to contribute to Ukraine's resilience and victory: URC2024, the G7 meeting, and the Global
Peace Summit.
According to the IER, real GDP growth slowed slightly to 3.5% yoy in May compared to 4.2%
yoy in April due to significant damage caused by russian attacks on electricity generation.
Restrictions on electricity supply to industry and the population continue: efficient consumption
and the installation of decentralized power generation capacities are a priority.
The Ukrainian Sea Corridor allows an increase in the exports of ores and metallurgical products.
Foreign aid was the lowest in May. However, already in June Ukraine should receive about
USD 4 bn in loans.
In May, as in the previous three months, consumer inflation was slightly above 3% (3.3% yoy).
In June, the NBU again reduced the discount rate – from 13.5% to 13% per annum.
The hryvnia exchange rate has surpassed UAH 40 per dollar due to the growing demand for
cash currency.

12. China's Population by Age Groups, 1950-2050* During the next 50 years China will experience a dramatic population aging. According to this most recent UN population projection (the 1998 Revision), China will have about 630 million people age 50 and above in 2050 - while there will be only some 78 million children below the age of 5 and just 324 million children and teenagers below the age of 20. In other words: by 2050 China will have almost twice as many people above age 50 than below age 20. * These estimates and projections include the population of Mainland China and Hong Kong.
