I try to stay away from overt self-promotion in my newsletter, but just this once, I'll break my own rules. I'm super proud to announce the launch of the Fast Future Blur, which is in stores and online now. The book features all the members of the faculty of the Fast Future Executive program collaborating on chapters to show that all of the technologies we talk about are interconnected. I co-wrote my chapter on VR/AR and the Future of Work with the great Rajan Kalia.
I don't want to give too much away (buy the book!) but we spent a lot of time last fall digging really deep into how leaders can use this technology to solve real world problems and created a framework for applying it across an organization. There are clear and actionable steps for creating and deploying content and measuring outcomes. If this is interesting, I also lead workshops for companies and educational institutions that go even deeper into defining problems and figuring out what works in VR/AR, and then how to actually make the stuff.
While I can't quite claim this book is a beach read, it's definitely a good and educational read -- maybe something to turn your brain back on after a few weeks lounging in the sun. Is "flight home read" a thing? Maybe it should be.
And if you're interested in learning even more, we're doing a launch summit on June 11th at UC Irvine. You can register here. And the book is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Waterstones for you Brits.
