We are living in extraordinary times. We face challenges on all levels: economic, environmental, educational, corporate, governmental, personal, and spiritual. Experts and thought leaders in all of these arenas put forth ideas and models for the way forward. However, great as many of those ideas and models may be, if we are going to create a world that works, there must first be a shift in how we think and how we “show up” to life each day. We must learn to look at challenges from the perspective of potential and opportunity rather than thinking of them as problems to be solved. We must become co-creators of a new and different world rather than trying to fix an old one.
Create a World That Works: Tools for Personal and Global Transformation by award-winning author Alan Seale is a practical and accessible guidebook to making these shifts. Through this book, you can develop:
- an authentic, dynamic, and impactful personal presence that by its nature is transformational
- a keen awareness of your intuitive intelligence for guidance in life, leadership, and service
- an understanding of how life and leadership work as energy in motion
- tools for co-creation with the matrix of energy that connects all
- an ability to listen to the great potential of our future and let it show us the way forward
Alan Seale shows you how to live, lead, and serve in ways that inform and inspire more enlightened and effective action, creating a world that works for today and tomorrow.
Our world is at a tipping point. We are the best hope for a bright and sustainable future. Create A World That Works lays the groundwork by giving us a foundation of skills for the road ahead.

"Most models for leadership describe how a leader can have an impact on an organization. Most models for change assume a leader with a visionary plan and measurable, communicable goals. Real leaders today, however, realize that by the time the plan is put into action, the needs of the organization have already moved on. Leaders find themselves chasing the very change they are supposed to be leading. In Create a World That Works, Alan Seale proposes a model for transformational leadership—indeed for all human initiative!—that works instead by co-creating the change that wants to happen. Instead of planning to meet today's changes with yesterday's information, leaders will find themselves working backward from tomorrow's potential to what needs to happen today in order to get there. I cannot emphasize enough the power of Seale’s invitation to leaders to be the transformational presence they plan on."
—Rev. Peter Heinrichs, United Church of Christ Minister
"Ripple effect. This is what Create a World That Works is all about: Moving from the deeply personal awareness and presence to the powerful impact I create around me, inspiring others to do and be the same. If Alan Seale can live it, so can I. And so can everyone else. This is the way we create a world that works. Simply. Beginning right now. This book shows you how."
—Tine Gaihede, Director, European Leadership, Copenhagen
