About this audiobook
An innovation agenda for turning our biggest global societal challenges into opportunities to thrive
The future will be better than you think. Thriving shows how innovation can regenerate nature, society, and the economy by taking us from degradation to restoration of ecosystems, from depletion to renewal of resources, from disparity to responsibility in communities, from disease to revitalization of health, from disconnection to rewiring through technology, and from disruption to resilience of infrastructure and institutions.
Thriving strives to:
• Inform about why change is necessary and how it happens in society, as well as counter prevailing despair and pessimism about the state of the world with hope and optimism
• Inspire with what change is possible and where it is already happening, showing how we can go from problems of breakdown to breakthrough solutions
• Impel by creating a desire to turn information and inspiration into action, adding momentum to the growing regeneration movement
Thriving is not an exercise in blind optimism about technology or other miracle-cure solutions; rather, it is an accessible approach to systems thinking and an offer of pragmatic hope based on purpose-driven creativity and innovation. Whether you’re a progressive leader, a professional in the sustainability field, or someone who simply wants to be better informed about ways to take positive action, this thorough guide is for you.
