After this? is a reflective exploration of what happens when the systems that shaped modern organisations begin to lose their authority. Drawing on decades of experience inside global enterprises, the book examines how design, culture, leadership and economics collide under conditions of uncertainty. It traces why so many transformation efforts stall, how culture protects itself from change, and why organisations often retreat to familiar patterns just as new ways of working become necessary.

Moving between personal insight and organisational case studies, the book reframes design as something far broader than craft or optimisation. It introduces Experience Town, a real-world experiment in designing organisations as living systems, and the Triangle of Influence, a philosophy grounded in ethics, systems thinking and behavioural reality. Written in a calm, narrative voice, After this? is for designers, leaders and thinkers who sense that the future of work will not be solved by more tools, but by a deeper understanding of what it means to design with human responsibility at the centre.
