Cults - How the institutions, programs, and leaders designed to help entrepreneurs, are failing them. Dots - Entire industries are ripe for disruption (by entrepreneurs) because the old business models are disintegrating. Direct, straight lines, are being replaced by 'connecting the dots.' Abundance vs Scarcity - and how 'every abundance creates a new scarcity' is the new business mantra. Scale - is now a required strategy for every startup - otherwise you risk irrelevance: but scaling now can be far, wide, or deep. Crowds change everything - crowdsourcing, crowdfunding and collective intelligence. Sharing - is not just a fad - it's the new economy. Movements - the waves of the network: Join them, start them, leverage them - or risk being left out. All of these trends converge and change us - from customers, employees to vendors and companies - and this leads to a new kind of leadership, and a new style of entrepreneurship: Metapreneurship.This book is a not checklist on 'how to become an entrepreneur," nor is it a manual on 'how to launch a company.' The Age of Metapreneurship contains raw materials, ideas, paradigms, and ammunition so that savvy entrepreneurs and advisors can create unique strategies, and avoid using old ones. If you've been advising new ventures and guiding them through a bootcamp-like experience - only to see them sputter, and fade away, this book is for you.

If you're a highly experienced entrepreneur embarking on a new venture, this book is for you. The Age of Metapreneurship is like a collection of pieces to an unusual puzzle: Every time you put the pieces together, they form a different picture that is only for you.Success is no longer about being a rock star; it's about playing jazz in an ensemble.You are no longer an entrepreneur; you're a Metapreneur - playing in The Age of Metapreneurship.
