Humanity stands at a pivotal juncture, marking the transition from one age to another every 200 years, now propelled by swift technological and societal transformations that have accelerated the pace of change from decades to months. This era of rapid evolution presents a choice: to slow the adoption of new technologies, potentially monopolized by a few, or to democratize access and knowledge, fostering a shared progress. In SuperShifts, leading behavioral scientist Dr. Ja-Naé Duane and world-renowned innovator and futurist Steve Fisher highlight the various catalysts for change currently affecting individuals, businesses, and society as a whole. They also provide a model for transformation that expertly bridges the gap between theory and practice to provide a holistic view of making radical change through three lenses: you as a leader, your organization, and society.
