Complexity and disruption are growing and challenging our traditional concepts of management as a search for predictable order.  The book is a collection of works by academics, consultants and alumni of the TEE executive MBA about the experience of managing different types of complexity.  From AI and what Orghidan calls the 'ontological rupture' that is transforming work, the challenge of hybrid work, how to think differently about innovation, the technological challenge to democracy, to a toolkit to improve efficiency, reduce costs and improve profitability from sustainaibility that Gleadle calls the Sphere Economy.

The book is deliberately written in an accessible style and will be useful to executives and policy-makers trying to navigate disruption and complexity in their professional lives, as well to students of most social sciences.
