This book gathers insights from dozens of elite figures from various fields about the next decade, attempting to pierce through contemporary uncertainties and construct a future image from economic, geopolitical, technological, cultural, and environmental perspectives, proposing various possibilities. They provide frameworks and clues to help businesses think about how to build their adaptive advantages and successfully navigate the next decade. This book is not a typical business publication.
