Wishing for a return to “normal” ways—without investing in human capital, technology, innovation, and ecosystem development—will only hold leaders back from reinventing the systems around them.
Introducing AfterShock to 2023
“We have entered an era defined by climate collapse, AI acceleration, geopolitical instability, and economic volatility — all unfolding faster than most leaders can mentally or structurally adapt.
Much like Alvin Toffler’s Future Shock, we are now deep in what I call the AfterShock era: a compounding crisis of speed, scale and system breakdown.”
CAROLINE STOKES, Leadership Strategist and author of AfterShock to 2030
