It is a soaring, searing examination of what it means for a community to love, to grow, and crucially to disagree.

Throughout the 20th century, technology and economics drove a dominant logic: bigger was almost always better. It was smart to scale up - to take advantage of classic economies of scale.

And a new generation of upstarts is using artificial intelligence to automate tasks that once required expensive investment.

Bombastic headlines about science and technology are nothing new. To cut through the constant stream of information and misinformation on social media, or grab the attention of investors, or convince governments to take notice, strident headlines or bold claims seem necessary to give complex, nuanced information some wow factor. But hype has a dark side, too. It can mislead. It can distract. It can blinker us from seeing what is actually going on.

This new form of onboarding presents many opportunities and challenges for businesses today, and in the future.

Leadership is not what it used to be and not what it once was. Too many leaders today are calibrated for a world that no longer exists. And people are demanding something so much different in leaders of today. Like a new house outfitted with the greatest VHS system on the planet, too many leaders are addressing today's problems with the style and substance of yesterday's leadership. In this book, Clay Scroggins uncovers nine counterintuitive axioms of leadership that will help leaders adapt to the rate of change while becoming today's version of a leader worth following.

The future of work is already here, and what this future looks like must be a pressing concern for the current generation of leaders in both the private and public sectors.

What is it like to live in a society utterly focused on what is going to happen next?
