Looking Ahead to Build Future Success

Businessman holding a glass ball,foretelling the future.

terry_jones_printDisruption and innovation are two sides of the same coin, says Terry Jones. “It’s a question of, ‘Did you do it?’ or ‘Did someone do it to you?’” The Travelocity and Kayak founder will delve into this topic and other vital strategies for business success when he headlines RISMedia’s 21st Annual Power Broker Reception & Dinner on Nov. 4 in Orlando, Fla.

Currently chairman of the start-up WayBlazer.com and managing principal of ON Inc., a consultancy he founded to help companies in their transition to the digital economy, Jones will show Power Broker attendees what they need to know now for success in our complex digital world and offer key insights to creating a more innovative organization.

“In real innovation, being comfortable isn’t good. You have to be uncomfortable,” says Jones. “You don’t necessarily need to know how to do it; you just need to know that you have to do it.”

Jones will also talk about how savvy entrepreneurs can do more with less. Successful leaders are those who are unafraid to fail and who realize, “what got you here won’t necessarily get you there,” he explains. His address will offer the audience tactics for overcoming the fear of change and mitigating risk in order to keep their companies growing and moving forward.

The invitation-only Power Broker Reception & Dinner will take place on Friday, Nov. 4, at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Fla., during the annual 2016 REALTORS® Conference & Expo in Orlando. For more information on attending, please contact Randi Vannucchi, randiv@rismedia.com
