poptech: sheryl connelly

sheryl is the head of Global Trends and Futuring Manager at Ford. we met at TED 2007 and had a great conversation about the DoC work. She told me that she loves the cards and apologized for not getting in touch.
Our talk hinged around the future of mobility and the challenges that a legacy company like Ford faces. in chattig, she pointed out that ford is over one hundered years old and has a very large, real moral responsibility to its long-term workforce. in addition, they are not able to simply retool due to long-term concessional contracts with the unions. fascinating!
