Cecily Sommers is a futurist, business consultant, and author of Think Like a Futurist. Cecily defines her practice as a futurist in terms of someone who studies the principles and mechanisms of change by looking at history, biology, and the universe in order to understand how societies transform over time. As a business futurist, Cecily’s zone of genius is as a consultant to some of the world’s biggest brands in the disciplines of strategy, innovation, and leadership development, helping organizations recognize and strategize around the forces of change impacting business and society.

This week on The Wonder Dome, Cecily shares the significance of developing what she calls change literacy; an ability to cultivate an inner stability in tandem with an understanding of how the cycles of change function so that we can readily meet the future as it approaches. In an ever-changing geopolitical landscape, Cecily’s work is a balm that soothes uncertainty by helping us develop, “the other AI: an Anticipatory Intelligence that tells us not just what to follow, but how to leverage change for growth.”

"The Future" by Rainer Maria Rilke, translated by A. Poulin The future: time's excuse to frighten us; too vast a project, too large a morsel for the heart's mouth. Future, who won't wait for you? Everyone is going there. It suffices you to deepen the absence that we are.
