Thrilled to share that I co-authored "Navigating the Age of Chaos," releasing Oct 28! Alongside Jamais Cascio and Bob Johansen, we introduce the BANI framework— Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible—as a framework for leading in unprecedented times.

I'm excited to get back on the @TEDTalks stage to share my work on social simulations of what some call "unthinkable" and "unimaginable" futures. @IFTF we invite you to think creatively and courageously about possibilities that others dismiss as impossible tedtalks.social/4gd5zGR

Jane McGonigal @avantgame is a futurist, game designer and brilliant human. She both understands and shapes cultural zeitgeist. We met through @iftf, and I’ve been a fan of her books Imaginable, SuperBetter, and Reality Is Broken for years. I’m so delighted that she’s lent her support to the publication of THE GUARANTEE.

Delighted to receive the @iftf Imagination Leadership Awards - and the AI artwork that comes with it. Not an NFT, but a unique image for each recipient of a “utopia factory, imaginetic center and sanctuary for social imagination.”
