The Future, Interrupted by a Tornado

The Future, Interrupted by a Tornado

Mike Bechtel doesn't just study the future — he makes a living seeing it before the rest of us. As a historian, futurist, and professor at the University of Notre Dame, he spends his days tracing the throughlines between what's come before and what's coming next in technology and corporate innovation. In this conversation, Cal and Mike go deep. It's the kind of conversation that makes you lean forward, laugh and stop to ponder. But then a tornado warning cut it short. As Mike went off to safety, Cal realized he'd been in on a treasure of a conversation. We can all be grateful that Mike and his family came through the storm okay . . . and that Mike will be back for some more Big Questions.
