One of the highlights of 2010 had to be the day that I was the opening speaker for the 94th Annual General Meeting of the PGA - Professional Golfers Association of America. It was the first time they have ever had an external speaker open their meeting; I was invited in to discuss the major trends that will continue to impact the growth of the game, and the innovation strategies that could be pursued to accomplish that.
So it is a fitting way to close out 2010 as we wind down the officer here, by offering up a video clip from that keynote, "*Where's the Growth*." It's from a section in the talk where I put into perspective some of the key trends and innovations which will provide for sustained economic recovery over time.

There some additional insight on trends going forward into the future in my post, "[Trending in 2011: 10 Major Trends to Start Thinking About Now](/2010/10/trending-in-2011-10-major-trends-to-start-thinking-about-now/)."
Here's to 2011 --it's going to be a great year. Indeed, the future is going to be fabulous!
