The young man wanted to make the old man look foolish and thus impress others with his cunning. A To achieve his goal, the young man concealed a live bird in his hand and planned to dare the master to guess if the bird was alive or dead. If the master guessed that the bird was dead, he would release the bird to fly away. If he guessed that the bird was alive, the young man would snap the bird’s neck and drop the dead bird to the floor. “Master,” said the young man, “I hold a bird in my hand. Tell me, is it alive or dead?” The old wise man replied simply: “It is in your hands to choose.” I was a Boy Scout when I first heard this story sitting around a campfire and it came to mind as I thought about this special 50th anniversary edition of IR Update magazine. This issue brims with nostalgia and celebration. It is right to recognize and reflect on Gary A. LaBranche, NIRI’s history and its impact on the IR community. We have every right to be proud. FASAE, CAE But major anniversaries beg the question: “What’s next?” President and CEO The answer is up to you. NIRI’s founding, development, and growth were the result National Investor of the hard work of generations of members, volunteers, and staff. Now NIRI’s future Relations Institute is in your hands. [email protected] The odyssey from founding to today was neither straight nor easy. There is no reason to suspect that the road to the future will be any smoother. But your hands will steer the course. The journey has begun. A report on the future of investor relations was released earlier this year. “The Disruption Opportunity” isn’t a roadmap to the future, but it provides some directions and gives us things to talk about on the way. (Please see page 28 for an article on this report). “The Disruption Opportunity” also identified artificial intelligence as a major disruptor of the future. As a result, NIRI’s next Think Tank is now hard at work focusing on that subject, with a report due just before the 2020 Annual Conference. The “Investor & Issuer Invitational Forum” was also launched in 2019. The “Big I,” as it is called, is designed to focus in-depth on a single topic. ESG was the first topic selected, and for good reason: it is a mega-trend that will impact the corporate and investment world for years to come. Just prior to the first “Big I” in March, NIRI issued its first ESG Policy Statement (available on the NIRI website). Also newly launched is NIRI’s “40 Under 40” program, recognizing rising IR stars. This issue includes a commentary about the future of IR (see page 42) by one of them. Also launched in 2019 was the Developing Leaders Roundtable (DLRT). Patterned on the Senior Roundtable, the DLRT will provide a community for practitioners with 3-10 years of IR experience. The Investor Relations Charter (IRC) credential, launched in 2015, will be the hallmark of this generation. Into their hands is bequeathed the future of IR and the future of NIRI. I look forward to celebrating NIRI’s 75th anniversary with you in 2044.
