Cathy Hackl, founder of Journey & Tech Futurist, wrote the Foreword to Volume I:

"With his team, Roger created an operating manual, a system of content to build fluency in the language of uncertainty, disruption, and unpredictability. This guidebook offers a rich and practical set of resources for anyone - organizations, entrepreneurs, policymakers, educators, and learners - to capitalize on disruption."
