Leading, Defining and Measuring the Transformation Economy

The TTC is proud to be leading a tourism roundtable in a guided innovation, strategy, and insights journey to define, measure, and lead the transformation economy being led by Joe Pine, author of “The Experience Economy,” Dave Norton, Founder of Stone Mantel, and Aransas Savas, a leading transformation coach and experience strategist.

Our economy is changing from one that delivers experiences to one that creates transformation.“Transformation business models will be much harder to imitate than those that offer only goods, services, or experiences. And they promise to generate a handsome reward” according to The Harvard Business Review.

After years of difficulty and reflection, most people today want to change. They want to work differently, think differently, manage their health and wellbeing better. They want to use tools and technologies that deliver personal transformation. And not just deliver, sustain. All types of companies and organizations can play a role in helping people to change and become what they want to become.

What is Transformational Travel?

 

Testimonials

 
They change their sky, but not their soul, who rush across the sea.
— Horace

Roman philosopher Horace warned about the overweening pride of some of the travelers of his time, meaning that the mere act of travel won’t make us better people or change our character, not if we are rushing around without understanding what we’re looking at, or what our purpose is for being there.”
