    Randall Hancock

    Founder and CEO of AcceleratingBiz

    Randall is a business strategist, exponential futurist and hardcore research analyst. As a global explorer, news junkie, technologist and transhumanist, he loves to discover, analyze and determine the implications of each next new thing. He believes that facts trump theories, scenarios beat forecasts, pyramid principle thinking outperforms stream of consciousness, and that it’s far better to surf the tsunami of technology-enabled changes than fight gravity with legacy mindsets.

    Bringing nearly three decades of experience as a strategy consultant, entrepreneur, general manager, corporate executive and thought leader working in Asia, Europe and North America, Randall helps executive teams anticipate, assess and address the market disruptions and opportunities impacting their business in today’s accelerating business environment.

    Randall has an MBA with distinction from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, and an A.B. in economics from Harvard. He maintains residences in Somerville, Massachusetts and Makati, Philippines, operating on a time zone roughly equivalent to Alaska’s Aleutian Islands.
