We live in times of great change. Or so we are told. Headlines blast messages about clashes between tribes, civilisations, political factions, East and West. We are told that unless we abstain from eating meat, flying or enjoying other modern amenities, the planet is doomed. We live in times of trouble. Of crossroads. Of signs of decline. We live in special times. In turn, future thinking is often reduced to people having opinions about other people’s opinions.
As opposed to manifesto, in manifesto many small ideas are created to inspire one person, your- self. By sharing the vision of the future, we can avoid telling stories and instead strive to surround ourselves with as many strange, conflicting ideas that we can in order to immerse ourselves in future possibilities and possible futures. Incorporating recognisable examples, Minifesto will illustrate how the world changes when a single individual does something new.

REVIEWS
While Lindkvist’s ideas are anything but small, this blurb can be tiny: This Is Great.
Ben Hammersley, RSA Fellow,Wired journalist, Internet Visionary and author of Approaching the Future: 64 Things You Need to Know Now for Then
Magnus Lindkvist is not only a world-class trendspotter and a futurologist with uncommonly deep insights into the shape of things to come, he is also a highly original thinker. In thisMinifestohe has condensed a remarkable amount of challenging and contrarian thinking into a rousing defense of small, but not insignificant, ideas. Itis a refreshing attack on pompous futures thinking and overly broad claims regarding the future, and champions humility and creativity in the face of the profoundly unknowable. An important book for all those who care about the world tomorrow.
Professor Alf Rehn, innovation thought-leader, listed on the 2016 Thinkers50 Radar as one of the 30 management thinkers most likely to shape the future of how organizations are managed and led
