Managing the Game-Changing Trends That Will Transform Your World

Recommendation
Global futurist James Canton, whom CNN once called the “digital guru,” highlights the role of innovation in driving radical, exponential near-future growth and change. This gigantic metamorphosis is not merely economic or technological, but profound and civilization transforming. Stuffed with lucid snapshot speculations about the world of 2025 and beyond, Canton’s book sets out to “disrupt your thinking.” Though he occasionally indulges in jargon, he does a good job of rattling preconceptions. Canton remains ardently optimistic, yet his concerns about the ethical and existential upheavals of radical change cut through his pep talk. getAbstract suggests his vision to organizational leaders, strategic decision makers, and entrepreneurs who are prepared to imagine and embrace a future of wild, unbridled innovation, for good or ill.
