The 12 Paradigm Shifts That Are Changing Our World- Futurists Peter Leyden And Gerd Leonhard

European Futurist Gerd Leonhard often compares the current times to the turbulent years between 1968 and 1973, when the world last underwent a series of seismic shifts in the way things were done. During this period, not only was there a sense of instability, but also one of liberation, and ultimately, progress. It was a time when 'everything changed'. Gerd proposes that we are entering a similar era, today. American Futurist Peter Leyden similarly sees the coming decade as marking a rare juncture in history, bringing an unusual number of fundamental system changes that will require a series of paradigm shifts in how the world will now work. He sees these system changes as largely positive and adding up to what he calls The Great Progression that will play out over the next 25 years. For this special event, Gerd and Peter are teaming up to look closer at a dozen of the most important paradigm shifts of the 2020s that everyone should better understand.
