LAS VEGAS<\/span>, Oct. 9, 2025<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0Corporate America isn’t drifting into cultural volatility; it’s already operating inside it. As 2025 draws to a close, Executive Advisor TaChelle Lawson<\/b> issues her strongest warning yet: outrage has become a business model, and in 2026, it will intensify, organize, and punish on a larger scale. Lawson, President of FIG Strategy & Consulting<\/b> and author of Black is NOT a Credential: The Corporate Scam of DEI<\/i><\/b> will publish America’s Corporate Culture Forecast 2026<\/b> in late December 2025, and announces her new book, Culture Crisis: Inside America’s Outrage Economy<\/i><\/b>, releasing February 2026.<\/p>\n

Lawson’s record is predictive. In 2020, while corporations rushed to issue DEI statements, she warned there would be an expiration date and consequences for performative action; she was right. In 2023, she predicted that a Republican administration would move to cut federal DEI programs and funding; she was right. In 2024, as companies retreated from public commitments, she forecasted backlash from both sides\u2014employees and consumers\u2014and she was right again. “If you’re a betting person,” Lawson says, “bet on me. When it comes to culture, outrage, and corporate risk, my record speaks for itself.”<\/p>\n

\n

The 2026 Forecast<\/b> details where pressure will hit next and why standard corporate playbooks fail. Lawson highlights seven flashpoints enterprises must prepare for: symbolic statements that trigger external attacks; internal radicalization evolving from activism to insurrection; election-charged loyalty tests that drag brands into political trench warfare; boycott cycles that convert corporations into currency; the penalty of “no comment”; the fallout of DEI reversals (matched by equal risk in doubling down without strategy); and a new phase of accountability where executives are canceled and <\/i>replaced. “The Outrage Economy is very real,” Lawson adds. “And in it, anyone can have power, not just the traditionally powerful.”<\/p>\n

Lawson has opened a limited number of private Forecast Briefings in Q4 for enterprise teams, corporate boards, and media. Availability is limited and will close on December 12, 2025.<\/p>\n

<\/b> Culture Crisis: Inside America’s Outrage Economy<\/i>\u00a0will be available in February 2026.<\/p>\n
