Ninja Future: How Innovation Will Change Our Lives and What We Can Do to Thrive
In Ninja Future, Gary Shapiro explains how to understand the evolving technological landscape, both breakthroughs currently happening and those that are coming. Longtime economic mainstays from cash to traditional cars are on the way out, he makes clear. They will be eclipsed by a diversity of “new” products consumers actually want.
Shapiro uses case studies to identify companies and countries that are addressing today’s challenges particularly well - and draws lessons from those who have stumbled. Drawing on the insights he has gleaned as a martial arts black belt, he shows how businesses can only thrive in today’s turbulent environment by adopting the mindset of “ninjas” - they must be able to adapt to change - to capitalize on positive opportunities or overcoming challenging obstacles - at lightning speed.
