A practical guide to becoming future-ready in the Age of Intelligence The future doesn’t arrive all at once?it emerges in signals, patterns, shifts, and stories. Designing the Future is your field guide to making sense of that complexity. In their book SuperShifts, authors Steve Fisher and Ja-Nae Duane mapped the tectonic transformations reshaping society. And now, in their new work Designing the Future, they demonstrate how to take the next step: how to apply foresight methods to your life, your work, and your organization. Designing the Future isn’t about trying to predict the specifics of tomorrow. That’s impossible. It’s about preparing for possibility today. It explores what it’s like to practice futures thinking in real time, helping you discover what kind of futurist you are: a signal spotter, a systems mapper, a storyteller, or a strategist. Whether you’re a leader, innovator, or curious learner, you’ll build the confidence to see change early and respond with clarity. The book revisits the Macrohistory and the Ages and Eras Theory, tracing long arcs of civilizational change that include the Ages of Faith, Industry, Machines, Digital, and now the Age of Intelligence. It shows you how to understand the past so you can navigate the future, revealing how today’s disruptions connect to centuries-long patterns of transformation. Fisher and Duane dive deep into the Nine SuperShifts: Generational Drift, IntelliFusion, Techceleration, Reality Remix, PowerFlow, EcoAwakening, SocialQuake, World Mosaic, and BioNexus. This time, however, you’ll connect them directly to your own domains: your career, your community, your products, and your organizational strategy. They walk you through you how to translate global transformation into personal and professional action.
