Steve Keen
The Navigator
Judgement in the fog, money, risk and the call others cannot make.
Steve Keen earns The Navigator by refusing the comfortable map. As a heterodox economist, he treats orthodoxy as terrain to be tested rather than followed, and his appearance on The Diary of a CEO showed that instinct at work, steering audiences through complexity toward conclusions others avoid. His leadership lies in orientation, giving people bearings when consensus fails, and in the discipline to hold a contrarian course when the intellectual weather turns hostile.
“Our system is far more fragile than we've convinced ourselves that it is. We can make observations about potential futures which presumably robustness we don't have.”
“20 percent of the world's fertilizer, helium, sulfuric acid, all pass through that straight. If you take them away, you can't make microchips, you can't make fertilizer — the globe has a famine.”
“I'm actually looking at the overall system and saying, how do we make the system sustainable so that people can live within it? What we've got is an unsustainable system.”
