The behavior economy is an emerging business paradigm driven by new models for value creation, through digital platforms that shape experiences and information flow. In the marketplace new spaces for businesses to compete are emerging rapidly, enabling new engagement models, and profiting from behaviors that did not exist prior to their invention.

There is a gap in understanding what is unique about the individuals capable of maintaining foresight over time while implementing innovation daily. By investigating the companies that are at the front of the behavior economy and the individuals that built them, a framework for understanding the desired leadership qualities was developed. This Five-Point framework integrates the opposing forces of integrator and disruptor, philosopher and entrepreneur and the pilot force. The framework can be used to identify leaders with high capacity for foresight innovation and used to develop tools for personal development.
