Rod McLaren: Words that work |||

Words that work for digital + climate transformation

Hello, I’m Rod McLaren. I’m a writer.

If you thought digital transformation was spiky and disruptive, wait til you see climate transformation. It is going to feel like the sudden reinvention of many things we take as given today - jobs, education, housing, energy, industry, agriculture, infrastructure, finance, cities, society, the world.

They need reinventing because we built them for a world that no longer exists. They will be remade for an era of heightened change that demands more resilience and adaptability, better use of materials and energy, and fairer outcomes for all. We have to work so hard and so fast at it. The good news is this will create many opportunities.

If the last decade was about digital transformation, the next few decades are going to be about climate transformation.

I will help you get the story right, build a clear message, unlock an idea, explain an opportunity, and make the audience understand. Some of my work and projects.
