No innovation.
No ownership.
No future.

THE SHIFT YOU NEED

The future belongs to the builders.

Unfortunately, most organizations are waiting for tomorrow to happen to them instead of designing it themselves.

Everything you’re trying to do:

    • Navigating A.I. transformation
    • Upskilling your leaders
    • Building resilient employees

depends on Future Design™ — let’s build a tomorrow we’re all proud of.

FULL TALK INFO

Hi! I'm Josh Allan Dykstra.

I grew up in a small midwestern town, raised by amazing entrepreneurial parents who taught me the future is something we design and build together.

Remember when the future felt exciting? When we dreamed of flying cars, cities in the sky, and a world where technology made life more delightful? That optimism got buried somewhere under decades of dystopian predictions and doomsday scenarios.

Over the last 15+ years, I’ve had the honor to work with some of the best organizations on earth who collectively employ over a million people. I’ve learned how to recapture that “World Of Tomorrow” excitement — and how we can build the future we actually want to live and work in.

I’m here to share the blueprints with you.
