Design Your Future!
What’s Your New Playbook?
We currently face a climate crises without a playbook or framework to guide us. With no historical experience, we are left scrambling to find ways to navigate through these challenges.
To succeed, we must tackle the root cause: the design of our core business model itself.
In business, much can be gained by contrasting powerboat and sailboat designs.
Designed for Choppy Seas
Powerboats are rigid, vulnerable vessels reliant, on fossil fuel.
Sailboats, in contrast, thrive in wind and waves; their systems and crew adapt effortlessly to changing conditions. Unlike powerboats, they harness the natural power of the wind without leaving a trace.
Companies that embrace agility to harvest market value can navigate challenges and build resilience for lasting success.

Ultra high technology - Designed for strength & speed
Dynamic response - Reconfigures on-demand
Harnessing vs. battling nature

Minimal footprint - Leaves no trace
Versatile, prepared crew - Improvisation on demand
Redundant systems - Always back-ups
