This list hardly mentions books about how business can be a force for social good - the future of business has to be about how to navigate and help solve society's challenges - from climate change to education to helping the world's poor make a better life. The future is also going to be about how to work within complex systems so skills in collaboration and networks are key. Here are several books I highly recommend:
- Thinking in Systems by Donella Meadows
- Owning the Future - Journey to a Generative Economy by Marjorie Kelly
