Why is it dangerous to make long term business predictions?

Leo Tilman (Author & CEO, Tilman & Company)

Leo Tilman discusses his philosophy of dealing with an ever-changing world that he lays out in his book, Agility: How to Navigate the Unknown and Seize Opportunity in a World of Disruption that he co-authored with General Charles Jacoby. He explains why it is a bad idea to try and predict future crises and areas of growth and why it makes more sense to study and prepare for whatever comes using theoretical and analytical tools.
