Flux Mindset: Thrive Amid Constant Change and Uncertainty
The pace of change has never been as fast as it is today... and yet, it's unlikely to ever again be this slow. Every day, we’re bombarded with information and feel pressure to keep up. We juggle increasing responsibilities and higher expectations, often set by others. And we’re doing this against a backdrop of uncertainty about the future: Will automation destroy my job? Will my children inherit an uninhabitable planet? Will I ever earn “enough?” For business leaders, there is added anxiety about what this means for talent, strategy, purpose, and profitability.
All this was true before a global pandemic changed daily life all over the world. It is even more true now, as we navigate even more unknowns today, tomorrow and into the future.
Answers to many of these questions are all around us… and yet we’re too busy, running too fast to notice them. We’re living in a world in flux, yet our obsession with predicting and controlling the future is hijacking not only our ability to show up and live fully today, but also how we perceive this future.
“Flux mindset” is a term I coined to describe how to thrive in a world of constant change. In this talk, I guide audiences on a journey through what a flux mindset is, why it matters, and how to develop one. I draw on my personal and professional experiences with flux (from losing both of my parents in a car accident when I was 20, to building an ever-evolving “portfolio career”) and countless examples from others. Whether you’re building your career, managing a company and team, triaging new workplace realities, or are simply not sure what to do next, you’ll learn unconventional and often counter-intuitive strategies for how to think, learn, work, live and lead better — not by running faster, but by slowing down, unsticking your mind, flipping your perspective, re-evaluating who and what you really trust, and learning to embrace flux.
The New Economy: What's It All About?
The sharing economy, collaborative economy, digital economy, on-demand economy, access economy... these terms are in the media daily and yet what do they mean for companies, individuals, governments, and the future? A renowned expert on emerging digital technologies and the new economy in all its forms, Rinne unpacks the headlines and hype, decoding crucial terminology, highlighting new forms of disruptive innovation, and identifying underlying trends to help leaders across industries forge a successful path forward. Touching on major shifts from centralized institutions to decentralized networks, to business models based on access rather than ownership, and on how to build trust in new ways, Rinne serves as a hands-on guide to the new economy, helping organizations translate uncertain change into economic opportunity.
The Future of Work: Preparing for What Lies Ahead
Almost every aspect of the way we work is changing as the world shifts from lifetime employment to freelance work arrangements, and as new technologies portend to displace jobs at an unprecedented rate. Today, in the U.S. alone, 34% of the workforce is already freelance, a number that is expected to rise to 50% by 2030. Drivers and retail clerks, two of the largest professions worldwide, are among the most at-risk for technological disruption as driverless cars and self-serve tablets become the norm. Tackling the complexity of the future of work in terms of its impact on companies, workers, and policy makers, Rinne reveals the trends behind the stats, helping stakeholders across industries prepare for the evolving nature of work. Breaking down complex shifts and interweaving powerful experiences with hard-hitting facts, Rinne shares how we can maximize the benefits of the future of work and ensure that new technologies augment rather than replace human potential, ultimately providing a playbook so that organizations and individuals can become predictive and proactive rather than reactive and stay two steps ahead of the competition.
What the Future of Work Means for the Future of Education
We hear the stories: of a future in which technology has addicted us, we have robot overlords, and we lose the ability to be in relationships. We see the statistics: of automation that will eliminate entire job categories, of rising inequality and safety nets that are fraying. Or will it be a future of unparalleled connectivity, collaboration and opportunity?
While the answers are up for grabs, one thing is clear: the future of work and education are fundamentally intertwined, and whether we get it right depends on understanding these forces at play. The stakes are high for parents, teachers, educational institutions, business, government and society at large… and most of all, future generations.
By and large, we are stuck in an education system that was designed for the First Industrial Revolution, which is a very poor fit for the Fourth Industrial Revolution that we live in the midst of today. Students study for the test and worry about grades, rather than sparking curiosity and innovation. Between 1989 and 2016, the cost of college increased eight times faster than wages did. With automation expected to scale in the coming years, how can our education system possibly keep up -- and what else should we consider?
April Rinne has been at the 50-yard line of these shifts. In this talk, she unpacks key themes -- from artificial intelligence to lifelong learning -- in a practical, approachable way. She helps educational institutions identify and address their blind spots as well as new opportunities, she helps companies rethink their talent strategy, and she helps parents give future-forward advice. She’ll challenge your assumptions, connect new dots, and help you see differently.
Future-Forward: New Ways of Learning, Working, Living and Leading
The future can feel overwhelming: it’s full of unknowns and risks, the pace of change is unrelenting, and sometimes it’s as though we’re losing our ability to understand one another. For young adults, there’s an added burden of older generations expecting you’ll fix the problems they created. Yet right now, you’d really just like to know: what should I study? What skills will be valuable in 10 years? Is a four-year college degree be worth the debt? You’ve been taught to study for the test, yet the future resembles a multiple-choice question with no good answers.
April Rinne is your guide to this future. She won’t give your parents’ advice to “study hard, get good grades and you’ll be fine” because she knows it’s outdated. She will help you understand the future landscape, navigate your own path, and adopt a mindset that will thrive.
April has been at the 50-yard line of the future of work, education, technology, innovation and globalization her entire career. She has a black belt in seeing beyond borders (in 100+ countries), crafting future-forward inroads and helping others do the same. These skills and perspective aren’t just the result of her professional expertise; April’s personal journey is also one of navigating the unknown. Following the death of both of her parents in a car accident at age 20, she had to ask hard questions -- about life, loss and what really matters. Without a map, she had to chart her future path.
This talk distills the best of April’s wisdom and personality. She connects easily with Gen Z and Baby Boomers alike. Listen to her explain why the future career looks more like a portfolio than a corporate ladder, or how having a midlife crisis at age 20 was a blessing in disguise. You’ll never look at today or the future the same.
A New Era of Citizenship: from Birthright to a Borderless World
While the idea of "being from" somewhere is as old as humanity itself, citizenship is not. National identity, passports and border controls are relatively new concepts, and they are ripe for disruption. As we scan the globe today, we find a range of places and initiatives that are fundamentally redefining how identity, community, rights and responsibilities, are -- and in some cases are not -- linked. From e-Residency in Estonia to global impact visas in New Zealand, virtual citizenship for sale in Malta and St. Kitts, and the ongoing plight of "stateless" populations, we see unprecedented opportunity for talent mobility, education and business as well as corruption and escape. What might a borderless world look like? Which places are ahead of the curve? And how can individuals, companies and governments best prepare? As an early e-Resident and global citizen, having traveled in more than 100 countries and laser-focused on emerging transformative trends, April Rinne sheds light on this evolving world of citizenship, revealing the implications and opportunities organizations should have on their radar.

Several of these engagements were first-time events for their host organizations, industries or locations. Often asked to collaborate on structuring for the day or event, April is happy to assist meeting planners with creating a truly immersive and memorable experience for your next meeting.
