‘Leaders worldwide are under immense pressure to pick the right choice.’ HOW 16 DISRUPTORS HELP TO INSPIRE INNOVATION

- Citizen reporter

Success Secrets of Disruptors provides 16 unique perspectiv­es from profession­als who’ve become bona fide game changers in their respective fields while finding ways to pivot and adapt in today’s warp-speed economy.

“Disruptors operate in a world where every industry is being affected by one or all of the following: AI, blockchain, capital markets, climate change, electric vehicles, food shortages, homeworkin­g, inflation, the IoT, robots, scaling cities, the metaverse, water demand and, of course, war,” writes Thomas Power in the book’s foreword.

“Growth is harder; companies struggle, and leaders worldwide are under immense pressure to pick the right choice.”

Featured authors in Success Secrets of Disruptors include:

Antony Abell, who is turning the world of property investment on its roof;

Roddy Herbert, who seeks to disrupt education; and,

Barry Paisley, who is a visionary in the music and entertainm­ent industry.

By sharing their individual stories, all 16 of these high-impact profession­als hope to inspire readers to mastermind progress in their own industries through innovation.

“Thirty years of the internet have brought us to a place where we cannot back out, we cannot escape, we cannot choose to avoid facing where we now are,” Power writes. “All of us have to operate, and make choices and decisions, in this real time economy.

“We turn to the disruptors – individual­s who are in the thick of it, living and breathing new world experience­s all day every day.”

Success Secrets of Disruptors features the following authors: Antony Abell, Anthony Basker, Marilise de Villiers-Basson, Kate Faragher, Daniel Hammond, Roddy Herbert, Chris O’Hare, Owen O’Malley, Barry Paisley, Dr Paula Petry, Sarah Piddington, Anthony Pollock, Tim Robertson, Malcolm Tullett, Jane Young and Mark Young.
