Summary

A guide to adapting quickly in the face of change and using the power of reinvention to your advantage, from the editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine and host of the Build for Tomorrow podcast

We experience change in four phases。 The first is panic。 Then we adapt。 Then we find a new normal。 And then, finally, we reach the phase we could not have imagined in the beginning, the moment when we realize that we wouldn't go back。

Build for Tomorrow is designed to accelerate that process--to help you lessen your panic, adapt faster, define the new normal, and thrive going forward。 And it arrives as we all, in some way, have felt a shift in our lives。 The pandemic forced a moment of collective change, and we are still being forced to make new plans and adjustments to our lives, families, and careers。 Many of us will never go back, continuing to work from home, demanding higher wages, or starting new businesses。

To help people along this journey, Entrepreneur magazine editor in chief Jason Feifer offers stories, lessons, and concrete exercises from the most potent sources of change in our world。 He speaks to the world's most successful changemakers--from global celebrities like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Maria Sharapova to innovative CEOs and Main Street heroes--to learn how they decide what to protect, what to discard, and how to move forward without fear。 He also draws lessons from history, looking at how massive changes across time can help us better understand the opportunities of today。 For example, he finds guidance for our post-pandemic realities inside the power shifts that occurred after the Bubonic Plague, and he reveals how the history of innovations like the elevator and even the teddy bear can teach anyone to be more forward-thinking。

We cannot anticipate tomorrow's needs, but it shouldn't take a crisis to push us forward。 This book will show you how to make change on your own terms。

Novels, recorded music, automatic elevators, teddy bears and the waltz。 What these things have in common? They were all controversial when they first emerged in society。 Change is inevitable, but most of us are hesitant to embrace it。 Feifer argues that by examining the initial reactions to and ultimate results of changes in the past, we can better anticipate and adapt to future changes。 He details parts of daily life that are commonplace now, but were sources of discomfort at their origins。 Rea Novels, recorded music, automatic elevators, teddy bears and the waltz。 What these things have in common?

Walks you through the process of navigating panic。 First panic, then adapt, then be your new self authentically。 Great pop culture examples in each part that shows that you are not alone in panic and that adaptation is a long process and not easy。 Very easy to read and get along with the author voice。 Enjoyable :)
