In a time of climate crisis, social upheaval, and economic uncertainty, traditional growth models are no longer enough. Sustainable Futures offers a bold, actionable roadmap for organizations ready to lead in a post-growth economy—where success is measured not just in profit, but in resilience, sustainability, and long-term value.

At the heart of this timely book is the Emerald Deal—a strategic framework for businesses seeking to break free from outdated economic thinking. Rooted in regenerative, circular, and socially responsible principles, it empowers organizations to remain competitive while aligning with global sustainability goals.

The authors introduce Predictive Intelligence (PI) as the game-changer for navigating this transformation. By combining data analytics, AI, and foresight, PI enables leaders to anticipate challenges, make smarter decisions, and uncover new growth opportunities—without compromising future generations.

The book also explores Collective Intelligence, showing how collaboration, transparency, and shared knowledge can drive innovation and create agile, future-ready organizations.

With a compelling mix of theory and practice, Sustainable Futures provides:

• Proven frameworks for embedding sustainability into your business model

• Tools to build resilience in uncertain environments

• Insights from award-winning projects and industry case studies

• Practical strategies for forward-thinking professionals who want to make a real impact

Whether you're a leader, policymaker, consultant, or academic, this book is your essential guide to thriving in the decade ahead.
