Prepare for the exponential future with Singularity’s customized learning programs, expert briefings, and novel approaches to strategic planning. Our solutions range from deep-dive events to continuous coaching and advisory services.
Our methodology is consistent, yet flexible to accommodate every unique team. We offer three tracks, each able to stand alone or integrate, tailored to educate teams in their optimal format and setting. To illustrate, we’ve selected two sample programs from our library per track. For additional examples or to customize from scratch, contact us at sr@su.org.
Uncover how exponential technologies are driving disruption trends across sectors. Build core exponential capabilities, mindsets and cognitive flexibility to lead amid accelerating change.
Become an expert on the tech that's accelerating humanity. Programs in this category provide an in-depth understanding of how exponentials like AI and robotics are evolving so you understand why they're shifting industries and professions so quickly. Assess risks and opportunities as you demystify disruptive technologies.
Envision possibilities and chart strategic responses to increasingly complex futures. Identify unconventional innovations and solutions emerging from technological convergence and intersection. Harness creativity and systems thinking to explore adjacent possibilities amid accelerating change.
Brad Templeton is a Canadian software architect, civil rights advocate, and entrepreneur. He is considered one of the early pioneers of the Internet, having founded ClariNet Communications Corp., the first company to deliver news and information services to Internet users, in 1989.
Dr. Chander is a physician, neuroscientist, and futurist who trained at Harvard, UCSF, UCSD, and the Salk Institute. She is Chair of Neuroscience and Faculty of Medicine at Singularity University, Visiting Scholar in Medicine (Bioinformatics) at Stanford (where she was on the Anesthesiology faculty for 8 years), and Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council GeoTech Center. Her postdoctoral research allowed her to use light-activated ion channels inserted in DNA (optogenetics) to study sleep and consciousness switches in brains. Her goal is to understand neural mechanisms of consciousness, the evolution of human consciousness secondary to human augmentation, and how mapping consciousness in humans may help us to understand consciousness and intelligence in other life forms (e.g. animals, non-terrestrials).
Elie Losleben is a dynamic speaker guiding leaders in navigating change while preserving well-being. With over a decade of experience leading Code Innovation in global development projects, she's backed by UNICEF, UK Department for International Development and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Elie's insight from post-conflict Liberia emphasized well-being's role in impactful work, inspiring her to teach aid workers to combat burnout. She's empowered thousands in person and online, and rooted in neuroscience and trauma research, Elie teaches evidence-based strategies for personal resilience in the face of stress. Holder of a Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University and a BA from the American University in Cairo, she's also integrated well-being into Singularity University programs since 2014. Elie's an Edmund Hillary Fellow, based between the Bay Area and New Zealand, championing effective leadership and well-being amidst rapid change.
We use SU to give them insight into the technological possibilities of the next decade and the fast interchange of those possibilities in relation to the ethical questions they present. There are several takeaways they all mention after the program. First, they are shocked about everything that is technologically possible that they were not aware of and begin thinking about how that is going to impact their business models and their businesses within the next 1-2 years. They suddenly see what is possible, what is new for them, what impact it might have for their business and what they can learn from developments and innovations in other industries. This is one of the great insights and takeaways from SU.
My visit to Singularity was inspiring as well as confronting. The future is today! I took home lots of ideas to develop our company to the next stage. Artificial intelligence, robotics and healthcare developments will change the role of mankind and the nature of our business. Yuval Noah Harari’s Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow came to life.
Exponential technologies and innovation are in our DNA at Airbus. What was radical about SU and its approach to innovation was teaming across domains at Airbus and being challenged and inspired to project farther into the future to define the system we needed to develop today. Singularity brought uncertainty to our process, which initially was very uncomfortable for us, but really added value in pushing us to improve our solution. Once we accepted it, we were able to better plan with more positive propositions and better, more flexible outcomes for the short and long term. The Singulartity process adapted very well to the technology.
