NATIONAL BESTSELLERShortlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award
“The best window I’ve seen into this new world.â€Â —David Brooks, The New York Times
Â
In this indispensable guide to navigating the twenty-first century, two visionary thinkers reveal how “new power†is reshaping politics, business, and life to be more open, participatory, and peer-driven. Here, Jeremy Heimans and Henry Timms reveal a new and compelling lens on the biggest stories of our age—from the out-of-nowhere victory of Donald Trump to the rise of mega-platforms like Facebook. They show the strength of new power—movements like #MeToo; platforms like Airbnb and Lyft; organizations like TED and Lego—as well as its dark side. They contrast it to “old power,†the foundations of which are coming under assault in an age of ubiquitous participation.
Â
The battle between old and new power is determining who governs us, how we work, and even how we think and feel. This groundbreaking book provides a new way to understand the world—and the tools we all need to thrive in it.
