About the book
The most powerful geopolitical actors of our time do not lead armies — they lead
corporations. In the twenty-first century, global power has migrated from ministries to markets. Supply chains, digital platforms, capital flows, and technological ecosystems now determine the fate of nations. The individuals who command these systems — CEOs, founders, platform architects, and global strategists — have become parallel diplomats, system governors, and architects of global stability.
In Market Power & The Next Geopolitical CEO, Dr. Jean Narcisse Djaha delivers a landmark framework for understanding this transformation. Drawing on geoeconomics, systems leadership, and institutional strategy, he demonstrates that the modern CEO is no longer a corporate executive but a geopolitical actor whose decisions influence national resilience, technological sovereignty, and the balance of power among nations.
Through rigorous dialogue and unparalleled networking, the program provides the intelligence and relationships necessary to navigate a fragmenting world order.
