10th Grade - Technology

Once upon a time, business as usual was often good enough.

No more where we are going good enough is dead.

In a world where everything is connected.

Where everything is equally excellent.

Where performance is reaching perfection, there is only one space left to innovate in. YOU.

Right now, you are a central point of the raging tornado of change fueled by digitalization, mobilization, argumentation, disintermediation, automation … well the list goes on!

Science fiction is becoming science fact. Think about self-driving cars or computers that can learn and think.

The way we work will never be the same, the skills we need will be dramatically different.

Winning or losing are now happening faster than ever before.

So, what’s your response?

How will you discover new opportunities in one of the most transformational times in human history?

Are you driving chance, or are you being driven by it?

Disruption has become the new normal with change it’s always gradually than suddenly well things really have stopped happening gradually this change is exponential.

Everything that used to be dumb and disconnected is now wired and intelligent. Cars, cities, poets, farms, even our bodies will be wired with sensor and will talk to each other.

These game changes are also combinatorial, they amplify each other creating a perfect storm of change. Quantum computing, fuels, big data, the internet of things fields artificial intelligence and deep learning which fields robotics. However, anything that cannot be digitized or automated will become extremely valuable.

Human only treats such as creativity imagination, intuition, emotion an ethics will be even more important in the future because machines are very good at simulating, but not at being. Yes, robots and softwares will do some of our work, but this will allow us to focus on things that cannot be automated. To imagine change squared you’ve got to start engaging more with what might be, not just with what is. Immerse yourself in the immediate future five to seven years out from today. We need to go beyond technology and data to reach human insights and wisdom.
