LAS VEGAS—Mauro F. Guillén is said to be one of the most original thinkers at the Wharton School, where he holds the Zandman Professorship in International Management and teaches in its flagship Advanced Management Program and many other courses for executives, MBAs, and undergraduates. He was just recently appointed the next Director and Dean of Cambridge Judge Business School. An expert on global market trends, he was the keynote luncheon speaker at the CREW Network Convention where he discussed a few key trends that he says will collide in 2030, will impact the CRE landscape and reshape our future.
"The world as we know it will be gone before the end of this decade," he said. "We have changes going on in population, the economy and, of course, technology."
But he says that if you consider each of those three things in isolation of the others, you will miss the point. "I like thinking about the future laterally. What you need to do is connect the dots so you can anticipate unanticipated effects," he explained. "Individual trends don't matter as much as how they come together."
