"Become the pioneering intelligence that shapes the future!"
This is a book written by Yeom Jae-ho, the former president of Korea University, who consistently emphasizes "becoming a pioneering intelligence."
The book aims to help young people understand how life and work will change in the future and what they should be preparing for now. The 21st century is evolving into a new normal society, vastly different from the industrial society of the 20th century. Out of concern for young people who blindly follow the success methods of the older generation, Yeom began writing this book. As someone who has long researched and taught about future societies, he unpacks key insights, from the history of human civilization to the transformation of industrial structures and work, and the characteristics of intelligence needed in the future, making it easy to grasp the new normal of the 21st century. For young people who want to design their own lives and take on challenges, this book serves as a compass essential to navigating the journey of pioneering the future.
