Future-Proofing Your Business in Our Rogue Wave Era. An actionable framework for driving change.

At this moment, rogue waves are forming under your business. If you thought COVID was a surprise, prepare for bigger waves. Ten barely manageable undercurrents are colliding to create a sea of radical systemic change. When they well up, they’ll sink companies and wash away entire industries overnight.

Jonathan Brill

Jonathan Brill prepares organizations to profit from radical change. He is an expert on resilient growth and innovation amidst uncertainty. As a senior leader and Global Futurist at HP (Hewlett-Packard), Brill directed long-term strategy programs.
