What if organisations struggle to change because they cannot see what is holding them in place?
We tend to think organisations are shaped by strategy, structure and leadership. But beneath these visible systems lies something more powerful: memory.
Every organisation carries the accumulated experience of its past. Assumptions become habits. Habits become culture. Ways of working that once made sense become so familiar that they disappear from view.
After this? explores what happens when we begin to notice them again.
Drawing on decades of experience inside global organisations, Aleks Marinkovic takes us behind the language of transformation and innovation to examine what actually shapes change: the way people think, the systems they inhabit, the cultures they inherit and the conditions that determine what they are able to see.
At the centre of the book is an intensely personal story. After brain surgery disrupted the relationship between memory, personality and certainty, Marinkovic began to recognise a striking parallel between individual cognition and organisational culture. Both are shaped by accumulated experience. Both depend upon memory. And both can mistake what is familiar for what is true.
Through stories of design, experimentation and transformation inside organisations including Novartis, HSBC and others, After this? explores what becomes possible when those inherited assumptions are made visible.
This is not a methodology for managing change. It is an invitation to see change differently.
Because before we can decide what comes next, we may need to widen our field of view.
After this, what might we see that we could not see before?

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What comes after the systems that shaped modern work? Most organisations still operate using models built for a different era. Industrial thinking prioritised efficiency, hierarchy and control. These structures created stability, but they now struggle to adapt to complexity, digital transformation, artificial intelligence and changing human expectations. After this? explores what comes next. Drawing on real-world experience inside global organisations, Aleks reframes design as more than a creative discipline. It becomes a way of shaping organisational systems, influencing culture, guiding decision-making and redefining how work is experienced. This book sits at the intersection of design thinking, systems thinking, organisational culture, leadership and the future of work. It challenges conventional approaches to innovation and transformation, moving beyond tools and frameworks to examine the deeper structures that shape behaviour inside organisations. At its core is the Triangle of Influence. A framework built on three interconnected principles: Ethics. Design is never neutral and carries responsibilitySystems. Outcomes are shaped by structure, not intention aloneCognition. People do not behave as strategy assumesTogether, these forces explain why many transformation programmes fail, and how organisations can begin to evolve in more meaningful ways. Blending narrative, philosophy and practical insight, the book explores: Organisational transformation and change managementHuman-centred design and user experienceInnovation, creativity and design leadershipBehavioural science and decision-makingThe impact of AI and digital transformation on workSystems thinking in business and leadershipRather than offering quick solutions, After This? provides a deeper lens for understanding how organisations behave and how they can change. It is written for leaders, designers, strategists, innovation teams and anyone interested in the future of work. This is not a book about doing more. It is a book about seeing differently.
