Summary
Since so much of how humans do life is in need of rethinking, it is hardly surprising that as part of that we need to look again at the way we do business. This short chapter is not a comprehensive guide for business and technology in the Anthropocene but just has a few top-level thoughts, drawn partly from the evidence and logic of the book so far, and partly from 20 or more years consulting in organisations, including a few of the world’s technology giants.
