The Paradox of Having a Vision and Remaining Present
Alex gives us a look into the cyclical nature of history and its impact on today’s tech, sales, and leadership landscapes. Drawing inspiration from the book “The Fourth Turning,” Alex explores the concept of historical patterns repeating every 80 years, leading to transformative societal shifts. He reflects on past revolutions and civil wars, connecting them to the present-day emergence of AI, cryptocurrency, and environmental challenges. Alex also tackles the paradox of pursuing goals while remaining present, offering insights into becoming an ‘alluviant leader’—one who masters their craft through authenticity and presence. This is a call to embrace the process of self-discovery and to lead by example, inspiring you to do the same as we approach a new paradigm predicted for 2030.
