Kim Lear | Generational Futurist Speaker

Data-driven content mixed with lively storytelling

 

The topic of generations has become too anecdotal. A random assortment of personal stories does not help explain how our culture changes.

 

Kim Lear relies on data, consumer insights, engagement surveys, demographic information and in-person focus groups and interviews to get an accurate snapshot of trends. She mixes this insight with storytelling to create meaningful ah-ha moments for audiences.
