Transform chaos into opportunity. This groundbreaking framework helps leaders navigate uncertainty, build organizational resilience, and create positive change in turbulent times.

The world we once described as volatile and uncertain has shifted into something far more chaotic: BANI, or brittle, anxious, nonlinear, and incomprehensible. In Navigating the Age of Chaos, Jamais Cascio, the originator of the groundbreaking BANI framework, unpacks the tools and perspectives needed to navigate our increasingly turbulent era.

Joined by coauthors Bob Johansen and Angela Williams, Cascio provides real-world examples, practical strategies, and visionary insights to help leaders, organizations, and individuals not just survive but thrive in the chaos.

Breaking down the BANI framework, readers will discover how to tackle each aspect of a BANI world:

• Brittle—Recognize fragility in systems and strategies to build resilience.
• Anxious—Address widespread anxiety with empathy and attentiveness.
• Nonlinear—Navigate unpredictable scenarios with adaptive thinking.
• Incomprehensible—Find clarity in overwhelming complexity.
• Positive BANI—Reframe chaos into actionable opportunities for growth.

As a definitive guide to understanding and harnessing the power of the BANI framework, this book equips readers with the knowledge to reshape challenges into pathways for innovation and success.
