If I Rule the World: Winning in an Age of Change and Complexity

By Adedipe Oluwafemi

Two changes will define the world of the 21st century. One, the world's growth will no longer come from the high-income economies (according to the latest figures, these countries collectively consume 77% of world GDP today- that will shrink to only 32% by 2050). Two, just as industrial technology shaped the societies of Europe and the United States in the 20th Century, information technology will be the basis of the emerging economies of the 21st. But don't read too much into this. Even though the world is undergoing huge changes, the fundamental laws governing human and societal progress have not changed. The power of choice, the power of relationships, the absolute importance of being uniquely different- none of these things have changed. Now as the Industrial Age winds down, and other powerful forces rise in its stead, how can we position ourselves to reap the opportunities inherent in the structure of the post-industrial age?Blending cutting edge analysis with imaginative thinking, Adedipe Oluwafemi opens our eyes to the complex forces shaping our world today and prescribes a roadmap to success that is as old and as unchanging as the hills.
