the groundswell A
The groundbreaking book by Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff has been a source of inspiration for this class because it captured what was really taking place behind the blinding and distracting technological innovations of the past decade. This shift in power, resources, and influence is about people doing what they've done forever: get what they want, as directly as possible.
This module introduces the book and the "groundswell" concept.
