Disrupted: Strategy for Exponential Change
Disrupted: Strategy for Exponential Change details a practical approach for being disruption ready, the fundamentals of Strategy in Action (SiA), and examples of organisations leveraging disruption.
Disrupted is the distillation of the wisdom of Resilient Futures' twenty-five plus years of researching and applying SiA in the USA and Australia.

Owning Your Future Work
The responsibility for identifying and preparing for future work resides solely with individuals. The role of their organisations is to assist people in this process and not to be the primary arbiter in organising positions that fit their future needs.
Driving this thinking is the whole purpose of Larry Quick’s new book: ‘Owning Your Future Work’.
Coming Soon, through Simon and Schuester.
“This is a book that makes readers stop, think, and reflect on the capabilities of their own personal business model as well as their organization’s. In doing so, readers are guided through a process of repurposing those existing capabilities to enable a systemic and adaptable response to change rather than ignoring it or suppressing it.”
- Saul Kaplan, Founder of the Business Innovation Factory (BIF) on ‘Disrupted’

Tertiary Learning Futures: Transformation Now!
Tertiary learning institutions are no longer contemplating the confluence of disruption and transformation—they are experiencing it, every day.
Long before the COVID-19 pandemic, there were indicators that the tertiary learning sector was in desperate need of reinvention. In 2020, many of its leaders finally accepted the need for critical change. But the question remains: how can this sector find a pathway towards a sustainable future in conditions that are severely disrupted?
Tertiary Learning Futures: Transformation Now! An Introduction to What’s Possible and the Framework to Start is Resilient Futures’ latest research report, which highlights four objectives:
➢ Demonstrating the need for a revisioning of the tertiary learning sector
➢ Providing a framework for adapting the sector’s mindset, toolset and strategic focus for meeting the needs of twenty-first century learners.
➢ Providing a ‘start small, grow smart’ pathway for tertiary learning institutional transformation.
➢ Providing prompts – not predictions – for considering the tertiary learning sector’s future environment and capability requirements.

Micro-manufacturing: The Makings of a Boom
Micromanufacturing is a fast-emerging industry sector that has the potential to revolutionise manufacturing in Australia. As with other industries that have emerged, engaging and empowering a movement requires understanding and aligning on essential aspects of the change.
The purpose of this document is to outline for leaders some of those key factors in sectors critical to ensuring the successful development of Micromanufacturing – industry, education and government.
Our research and thinking over the past five years has informed the views in this document and we look forward to gathering feedback to further shape a collaborative understanding as to the possibility of Micromanufacturing in Australia.
