Welcome to NEXT
This exciting book series will explore what’s NEXT for enterprise, education, leadership in our increasingly virtual lives.
It’s time to step forward and lead. It is our industry that will be the leadership model for the future. Time to share that vision of the future with the rest of the world. Whether industry, commerce, education, recreation–not one aspect of our lives will escape a universal virtual future. Let’s help shape the businesses, organizations, schools, and leaders of tomorrow. Let’s show the world what’s coming NEXT!
What will our NEXT leaders be like? What skills will they need? What new leadership models will they create?
What will our NEXT corporations be like? How will they function? How will they succeed?
What will our NEXT educators be like? How will they teach? What will they teach?
NEXT is designed to answer some of the questions which only our industry can address. That’s why this series of books will be based on interviews and conversations with thought leaders and key futurists.
The impact of the immersive web, 3D applications, virtual worlds, online games, social networks–all these hold the key to our future lives. The NEXT series will open that door and give all of us–especially those not in our industry–a glimpse into the future and offer tools and resources to meet it with confidence and success.
The NEXT series will be edited by E.M. Kaye, Founder, Association of Virtual Worlds
