Entering the Shift Age
Entering the Shift Age - David Houle

We have left the Information Age and entered the Shift Age

A time of transformation and change that offers both great risk and incredible opportunity.

 

In Entering the Shift Age, David Houle identifies and explains the dynamics and forces that have shaped our world and will continue to reshape it for the next 20 years. He shows how the Shift Age means a world which is fully global yet also focused on the individual, a world where the speed of change is so fast that change itself is the new norm. He also comments from the front lines of the Shift Age on key issues and topics that will affect our lives in the coming decades, from business and technology to the environment, media and global culture.
