The author has had the privilege of teaching in countries all over the world and helping senior executive teams re-gear and reinvigorate some of the most admired companies in business today. The content of this book is framed around two questions: “What creates new futures?” and “How can you and your team or your family co-create the best possible future?”
The goal of this book is to awaken the readers to the opportunities presented by their own inquiry about the future, and to encourage them to unleash the full potential of their creative power by practicing the art of conversation. Throughout this journey Aviv shares his discoveries, and the strategies and frameworks he has applied to help senior executives and their teams achieve extraordinary breakthroughs that led to game-changing results.
