It’s a reason to believe in change.

The concept of a tipping point has its origins in sociology, but it wasn’t until Malcolm Gladwell published his book of that title in 2020 that it became mainstream.

Gladwell’s book described how small, daily changes—in society or in other systems—add up until they reach a moment of critical mass, or a threshold, after which they produce a big change.

The idea of tipping points became popular pretty quickly for good reason. It captures and brings to light a part of our experience that bubbles under the surface. It just makes sense.

It’s also a hopeful concept.
