Alvin Toffler

Best Selling Author of Future Shock, Revolutionary Wealth, The Third Wave, Powershift, and War and Anti-War.

Alvin Toffler, the original "futurist", created an all new discipline around the study of change and its impact on business and culture.

Alvin has a remarkable aptitude for defining the trends and forces that shape the future in ways that help audiences shape their own future in today's knowledge-based economy. His global impact comes not just from successfully predicting individual changes, but also from the understanding the forces behind change and synthesizes this knowledge into a coherent, intellectual framework that can guide policy and decision-making.

What makes Alvin Toffler so extraordinary is that he asks questions nobody else has thought of and then answers them by fundamentally redefining things in ways that keep making sense as the future unfolds. He has created several lasting thought paradigms — new frameworks for understanding ourselves and the way we change — that offer invaluable strategic advantage to those who are paying attention. And he pegs these frameworks with predictions and insights that consistently verify that his sense of direction is correct.

Throughout his extensive career, Alvin has remained one of the world's most prescient, insightful, and influential voices in business and intellectual life. He has continued to produce creative ideas that define how we think about our world. Time magazine wrote that he has "set the standard by which all subsequent would-be futurists have been measured."

Today Alvin Toffler is routinely ranked among the world's top advisors in management.

Alvin's bestsellers have influenced the Clinton White House, the Republican Congress, and many global corporations. He is a leading consultant to military and intelligence communities around the world.
