BOOK CLUB: "Adapt" by Andrea Clarke
Join host Victoria Carthew as she chats with Andrea Clarke about her brand-new book "Adapt", which was QBD’s Non-Fiction Book of the Month in March 2025.
After the global pause in 2020, we returned to a world that feels faster, looser, and less structured – our professional boundaries have been erased, social and cultural norms are shifting rapidly, and at the same time, we're facing profound developments in artificial intelligence. We're facing more change more often, and we're applying a mindset that is simply outdated and no longer fit-for-purpose.
In Adapt, work futurist and award-winning author Andrea Clarke offers a fresh perspective. Rather than retreat from change or resist it, Clarke argues that we must engage with it continuously – learning not just how change unfolds, but how we can shape it. With four simple yet powerful principles, she shows how to move from merely reacting to change to anticipating and influencing the future. This book reframes change as a powerful playbook for growth, opportunity, and lasting transformation.
