He brings his expertise to life through novels that blend fiction with real-world organisational dynamics, offering readers a unique lens into the complexities of work, power, and transformation. His literary works span genres, from the whimsical and insightful “Through the Work-Glass”, which reimagines the inner workings of organisations, governments, and society in the spirit of Lewis Carroll, to the gripping corporate gothic suspense of “From Chains to Wings”, a novel that exposes the hidden battles for control in today’s workplaces.<br>&nbsp;<br>His most recent novel, “ECHO PROTOCOL – Where Governance Meets Memory”, delves into the collapse of traditional consultancy empires and the rise of agentic AI as it disrupts the entrenched power structures of governments, influencers, and global financial institutions. Through these narratives, Dr. Butterfield explores not just what is happening in organisations and society, but what could be.<br>&nbsp;<br>This fusion of storytelling and strategic insight is central to how Dr. Butterfield engages with clients, audiences, and readers. Rather than prescribing answers, he invites people to explore possibilities, reflect on their own experiences, and arrive at meaningful conclusions. This approach has made him a sought-after advisor in both business and academia, where his methods continue to inspire new ways of thinking about work, management, and the future.<br>&nbsp;<br>In everything he does, whether writing, advising, teaching, or speaking, Dr. Butterfield challenges conventional wisdom, encourages curiosity, and champions the human dimension in an increasingly automated world.<br>
