Publisher's Summary

New York Times best seller!

"Few are better positioned to illuminate the vagaries of this transformation than Galloway, a tech entrepreneur, author and professor at New York University’s Stern School. In brisk prose and catchy illustrations, he vividly demonstrates how the largest technology companies turned the crisis of the pandemic into the market-share-grabbing opportunity of a lifetime." (The New York Times)

"As good an analysis as you could wish to read." (The Financial Times)

From best-selling author and NYU Business School professor Scott Galloway comes a keenly insightful, urgent analysis of who stands to win and who's at risk to lose in a post-pandemic world

The COVID-19 outbreak has turned bedrooms into offices, pitted young against old, and widened the gaps between rich and poor, red and blue, the mask wearers and the mask haters. Some businesses - like home exercise company Peloton, video conference software maker Zoom, and Amazon - woke up to find themselves crushed under an avalanche of consumer demand. Others - like the restaurant, travel, hospitality, and live entertainment industries - scrambled to escape obliteration.

But as New York Times best-selling author Scott Galloway argues, the pandemic has not been a change agent so much as an accelerant of trends already well underway. In Post Corona, he outlines the contours of the crisis and the opportunities that lie ahead. Some businesses, like the powerful tech monopolies, will thrive as a result of the disruption. Other industries, like higher education, will struggle to maintain a value proposition that no longer makes sense when we can't stand shoulder to shoulder. And the pandemic has accelerated deeper trends in government and society, exposing a widening gap between our vision of America as a land of opportunity, and the troubling realities of our declining wellbeing.

Combining his signature humor and brash style with sharp business insights and the occasional dose of righteous anger, Galloway offers both warning and hope in equal measure. As he writes, "Our commonwealth didn't just happen, it was shaped. We chose this path - no trend is permanent and can't be made worse or corrected."

Perfect way to focus on the future

If you follow Scott with Kara on their Pivot podcast you will have heard some of this content. However it is a great summary of the trends and the path forward. Interesting to view through the lens of now having a vaccine and helps get your head in the game as we slingshot out of the pandemic.

Fantastic!!!! Incredible Perspective!

This was such a solid listen!

The world has changed so much during Covid - good and bad. With Covid going to go away eventually (replaced?) what will be different going forward, and what have we learned since?

Tech boomed and is more essential than ever. Tech is just a tool. How do we make it better for society?
Or do we really want this? Really, do we want this?

The power that tech has over us is incredible. The younger one is, the more control it has over them. They may not know it.
They can change that or make it more beneficial.

Think about the world before the cell phones. We still managed to survive, even thrive. I am not saying let's toss our phones.
Let's do better.

This is a great perspective on what HAS happened. What will happen is up to us.

The reader is funny, and has great tone.

I hope there is a follow up, because already this audio book is a bit dated.

Still worth it!
