Frankfurt, Germany Business Philosopher

Expert on the leadership skills required in the 21st Century
Anders Indset is one of the world’s leading business philosophers and a trusted sparring partner to international CEOs and political leaders. Dubbed “Rock’n’Roll Plato” and “Digital Jesus” by European media, he is currently one of the most sought-after intellectuals with his approach to practical philosophy.
Thinkers50, the premier ranking of global business thinkers, regarded as the “Oscars of Management Thinking” by many, has recognised Anders on the Radar as one of 30 Global Thinkers “most likely to shape the future of how organizations are managed and led”. For the 2019 Thinkers50 Gala his work on the “Q Economy” was a finalist for the Breakthrough Idea Award.
The native Norwegian, based out of Frankfurt, is a guest lecturer at leading international business schools, a founding partner of the Global Institute of Leadership and Technology and advisory board member of the Swiss-based deep tech pioneer Terra Quantum. He is known for his unconventional way of thinking, his provocative theses and his rock star attitude.
His latest book “The Q Economy – What comes after Digital?” entered the Spiegel-Bestseller list and was #1 in Manager Magazin and Handelsblatt for the most sold business books in the German speaking region. Q Economy has already been translated and sold to 11 countries around the world. His international bestseller “WILD KNOWLEDGE – Outthink the Revolution” was released in Europe in 2017 and has been translated into further languages in 2018 and was also a Spiegel-Bestseller in 2019.
His forthcoming book The Infected Mind is scheduled for early 2021. Additionally, Philosophy@Work, a collection of philosophical concepts on how to cope with today’s technological fast-paced and complex society will be published Q3/2021.
WHAT IS COMING AFTER DIGITALIZATION
The rapid development of artificial intelligence, the first quantum computers, and the automation of more and more areas of life and work will have a massive impact on our future and our economic model. Algorithms become authorities and they will inevitably compete against each other. But technology alone can not and will not be the answer to all our challenges. Still, we humans are the drivers and links that can control our environment, society, economy and reality.
Anders Indset develops three scenarios for the next 10 to 20 years in which our future will be irreversibly decided, and outlines the fundamentals of a new economy that can also be the basis of our future coexistence.
