Tom Friedman in Conversation with Gidi Grinstein: The World Is Fast

Some nations implode, others explode and in the USA we are witnessing unprecedented political turmoil in the recent Presidential election.

There is one force that underlies these major disruptions, and it is the change in the nature of change. Our world is moving faster than ever before, and these dynamics are affecting all societies, as governments are increasingly incapable of keeping up with the pace of change, while families become more vulnerable. Join three time Pulitzer Prize winner Tom Friedman as he discusses these themes from his new book, Thank You for Being Late: An Optimist’s Guide to Thriving in the Age of Accelerations with the founder and President of the Reut Institute, Gidi Grinstein.

Don’t miss this fascinating exploration with two leading thinkers on the reasons, implications and remedies of this great disruption to our world.
