Writer and Business Futurist
"The quality of the life and work of industrialized human beings - and the legacy they leave to successive generations - can be incredibly improved by making everyday choices more consciously."
Variously described as a ‘business visionary’ (The Futurist magazine) and as ‘a beacon lighting the way to a new paradigm’ (Stanford School of Business’ Michael Ray), John Renesch stimulates people to think differently about work, leadership and the future. He believes that commerce holds the key to creating a global shift in human consciousness thus creating a future of tremendous possibility for humankind - the possibility that will allow humanity to transcend the inevitable future that can be projected from current trends. Through his many articles, books and keynote speeches, John has become a highly respected business futurist and a renowned global thought leader.
