Fred is currently developing 2020F, a global community to help identify, track and find ways to minimize risk/maximize opportunity of disruptive events that shape our global community.
His experience includes analyzing businesses, markets and products, figuring out what makes them work, or fail, and developing creative solutions to encourage them to work better. This involves looking at how trends and events influence strategic business planning, social media strategies, corporate and product market development, information/analytical methodologies and cross-organization communications.
In addition to 2020F, he is the Managing Director of the McClimansGroup and serves as an advisor and consultant to a variety of emerging and established businesses, including web-based CurrentAnalysis.com, a global market intelligence firm which he founded in 1997.
An award winning author and speaker, Fred published his first book on networking in 1991 and has published over 200 editorials and articles on technology, business strategies and global market trends (including through IDG and CNN online).
His current writing focuses on the role of influence and disruptive events in business and society. He was also a contributing author to “SHIFT & RESET: Strategies for Addressing Serious Issues in a Connected Society” by Brian Reich (2011, Wiley & Sons).
