The biggest risk in 2026 is leaders using 2016 mindsets to lead...but mistaking it as a 2026 mindset. I've been meaning to share my interview with @rotmanschool of Management Magazine. This is a “Novel Economy,” where disruption is constant, compounding, and *always* novel (AI, climate, geopolitics, quantum, spatial intelligence… all evolving, emerging, and colliding). And when leaders talk about a “new normal,” it’s often a tell: we’re trying to steer back to business as usual instead of translating change into opportunity. That’s why I wrote #Mindshift. A few takeaways you can apply immediately: 1) Reframe disruption. The question shouldn't be “How do we protect what we built?” It’s “What is this disruption inviting us to rethink, redesign, and reimagine?” 2) Build trend literacy across 3 layers: • Microtrends = early signals in niche communities • Macrotrends = broader movements across industries • Megatrends = seismic forces that reshape society The opportunity is in connecting the dots between them. 3) Self-awareness is a business advantage. A self-aware mind is a shiftable (and growable) mind. It helps you escape “default thinking” (like reflexively cutting costs or automating away people) and see growth paths others miss. 4) Innovation = experience + speed + reinvestment. The disruptors I’ve studied obsess over frictionless experiences *and* fast, decisive execution. Momentum matters. 5) Use the 6-stage mindshifting framework: 1) Receive, 2) Perceive, 3) Weave, 4) Conceive, 5) Believe, 6) Achieve. Signals become strategy. Strategy becomes action. If you’re navigating AI and uncertainty right now, start here: be curious, listen deeply, and ask better questions before rushing to “solutions.” Read the full Rotman Q&A + then go deeper with Mindshift! 💡 🔗 Rotman interview: rotman.utoronto.ca/news-events-an… p.s. thank you Karen Christensen! 🙏 #Leadership #Innovation #AI #DigitalTransformation #FutureOfWork
