This volume explores the crucial concept of change, which is often recognized only in hindsight. The editor, founder of Psychological Future Management, posits that we are on the cusp of the most significant transformation in human history. This is an opportune moment to closely analyze individuals' capacity for change, using Germany as a representative case study. The findings highlight that while Germans exhibit considerable resilience and problem-solving skills, they also show a strong inclination to preserve the economic status quo and harbor fears about potential negative changes. Their social environments reveal contradictions, particularly among the wealthy, who prioritize security and are hesitant to embrace experimentation and risk—qualities essential for navigating a rapidly evolving landscape. This raises questions about what lessons other nations can draw from the current state of one of the world’s leading countries. Additionally, the psychological impacts of digitization and artificial intelligence are discussed, as they challenge our cognitive and emotional responses. The volume aims to explore how we can enhance our future competence and adapt to new knowledge more swiftly and continuously, examining the phenomenon of change from various national and international viewpoints.
