About the Book

Every day, legacy business models and traditional best practices are transforming around us, driven by technologies like AI, blockchain, 5G, and quantum computing that are radically altering our future vision. As a leader and innovator, you’re facing an accelerating pace of change that makes it more difficult than ever to navigate the murky future ahead. You need to cut through the noise and hype, but without a playbook to guide you, it’s difficult to know where to start. In Future Ready, Nick Davis shares the actual frameworks Singularity University uses with clients, along with case studies detailing how those enterprises have applied these strategies to leap ahead and stay there. More than half of the Fortune 500 have chosen Singularity University to develop their future vision and strategies. SU has developed a full range of tools, programs, and methodologies to help leaders and decision-makers build future-ready organizations. With this book, you will learn how to create your organization’s future exponential vision and strategy, develop the leaders of tomorrow, and build future customer value using cutting-edge technologies.
