ABSTRACT
In the keynote, Simon Wardley, the originator of Wardley Maps, takes the audience on a journey through the realm of strategic planning in the modern business landscape.

he is ahead of his time, I think right now his overall framework is too advanced and isn’t very approachable, as soon as a few intelligent analysts begin to test some of this out, he will be remembered as a pioneer. I wish I could really understand this, but it’s far too intelligent for me, but I can see the makings of something very revolutionary
