SourceCode Communications is working with media theorist Douglas Rushkoff on a new series of reports that will examine the changing nature of culture, work and society, with the goal of providing guidance for business leaders. The first Trendsights Report, Business, Economics & Work, spotlights “a shift from the decades-long focus on runaway growth towards greater sustainability and value creations,” according to SourceCode co-founder and managing partner Rebecca Honeyman. The report, which also says that 2021 will see major changes in how consumers engage with brands, explains how marketers and corporate leaders can shift their thinking to deliver against these changing priorities. SourceCode will also release reports covering meaning, culture and society; and narrative and media next year. To download the first Trendsights report, click here.
