David Baxter Speaking Topics

  • Future Work: Where the Jobs Are

    The slogan "the end of work" is as false as it is catchy. In truth there will be work in traditional and new economies in the future. Baxter brings his thorough demographic analysis to this vital topic, refuting common predictions and explaining the subtleties behind the numbers. Retirement of the post-war generation continues to mean significant replacement demand for employees, particularly in the skilled sectors, with an increased expectation of net demand for workers overall. The difference in the future will be the nature of work, the skills that workers require, and where work takes place. In his high-energy, entertaining, and customized presentation, Baxter provides insightful commentary designed to facilitate change and growth, and a deep understanding of the world of work.

  • Demographics, Lifecycles, and Lifestyles: Niche Marketing versus Mass Marketing

    In a highly customized and exhaustively researched presentation, Baxter drills down to the very essence of how and why consumers are clustering in niches and seeking individualized products and services. Sector-specific and content-rich, this presentation illustrates the importance of understanding a fragmented market and analyzes the challenges that organizations are facing as lifecycle and lifestyle shifts dictate the importance of reacting quickly and decisively to consumer realities.
