Paul Gibbons

Paul Gibbons is a polymath, futurist, and the bestselling author of eight books, including The Science of Organizational Change, which was named one of the top ten organizational change books of all time. His most recent work, Adopting AI, has been hailed as one of the "2025 AI Books of the Year."

Paul writes from "above the noise," bridging the gap between philosophy, technology, and the human sciences. He is a former investment banker, consultant, and professor who has worked at IBM, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, and PwC. In 2001, he founded Future Considerations, which became one of Europe's most highly regarded leadership consulting firms.

His latest project, The Great Collisions Series, maps the five converging forces that will define the economy of 2026: Medicine, Markets, Intelligences, Enterprises, and Science. Paul argues that the most urgent question of our century is how to direct the "Intelligence Explosion" toward humanistic ends—balancing the massive potential for innovation with the risks of fraud, inequality, and the erosion of truth.

Paul’s work is grounded in rigor, not hype. He holds degrees in biochemistry, philosophy, and psychology, with postgraduate study in economics and neuroscience. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and has been named a "Top-30 Global Guru" in organizational culture. His writing has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, and The Guardian.

He lives in Colorado with his two sons, serves on the board of Denver’s Institute for Enterprise Ethics, and competes in "mindsports" including chess, bridge, and poker.
