I wanted to let you know that Salim exceeded all expectations and was an amazing kick-off to our conference. His session was thought provoking, insightful, and an unbelievable fit with our SHIFT theme. I could not be happier, he spent time answering a ton of questions and hung out with our folks after at the bar. — Global CLP

 

Exponential Organizations should be required reading for anyone interested in the ways exponential technologies are reinventing best practices in business. — Ray Kurzweil, Director of Engineering at Google

Exponential Organizations is the most pivotal book in its class. Salim examines the future of organizations and offers readers his insights on the concept of Exponential Organizations, because he himself embodies the strategy, structure, culture, processes, and systems of this new breed of company. — John Hagel, The Center for the Edge
