I plan to support the shift many people say they want to see in the world, starting with those at the top. How about you?
Introducing AfterShock to 2030
“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
