A New Era
Structures, Synergies & Systems
The Shift by Design, not by Accident
Four Generations of Industrial Revolution have brought us to this Point of Arrival (POA) where all Structures, Synergies and Systems we have created are through the lens of Commerce.
It is now time to shift that focus on Commerce to Life. Where every Living Being matters. And Design Focuses on the Quality of Life before the Success of Enterprise. We have to Create for Data Driven Individuals and Society.
We are on the Cusp of a New Era that is nothing like any of the previous era. Digital Technology takes center stage of life on the planet and this needs to be dealt with responsively and responsibly.
Unlike the previous eras where only a few had the Power of Money and Knowledge to Initiate and Sustain Transformations, the Internet along with the emerging IOT, Sensors, Scanners, Wearables and Computing Devices is democratizing that power.
It is now up to each individual to leverage that power to reverse the impact of poor design on every sphere of life and renew it with Sustainable Solutions and Applications.
Structure:
Is the Shift of Power from a few to many. This automatically changes the relationships in our societies that we have become conditioned to. This new shift will automatically enable Diversity, Equity and Inclusion when Individuals become Data Driven.
Synergies:
As a consequence of the above shift in the Structure (Relationships) the Synergies (Culture) that is reflected through Values, Convictions and Assumptions will need to Transform. In the process empowering more Creators.
Systems:
Systems that are essentially driven by Digital Technology in the Future will provide better Returns On Assets when Human Capital in conjunction with Value and Intellectual Capital will bring about Transformational Growth that is Holistic and Sustainable in the Future.
Connecting Life
The Seven Stations
The journey of life for every living being on the planet is connected through the seven stations of Environment, Education, Health, Wealth, Mobility, Technology and Governance. Digital Technology demands new solutions that holistically connect the life journey rather than the disconnected enterprise systems we are used to until this point in time.
Roles Driven Digital Identity
Data Driven Personalization
It is ironical that enterprises promoted personalization that manipulated people to buy the mass produced Products and Services. In the digital age, with the emerging concept of a segment of one, the very same personalization is inverted to address the Life Context of the person instead of the conventional product / service inventory. This dramatic shift is inevitable and this demands a preparation on every member of the society to participate. Those who do will emerge in the forefront as Leaders and Early Movers.
The Emerging New Era
5 Significant Markers
-
The Human Ecosystem replacing the Financial Ecosystem with the democratization of Systems.
-
Transversal Technologies that connect the Seven Stations through which the Life Journey courses the planet.
-
The Changing Demographic of GenA and GenZ demanding very different things of life than the Millenials, GenX and Baby Boomers.
-
The need to use new Materials such as Nanotech and Biotech, Resources such as Robotics and Artificial Intelligence as well as New Sources of Alternate Energy.
-
The finite availability of Capital and the Democratized access laying an emphasis on Value Based Investment.
The Future of Work is the GenA and GenZ who want to find meaning in the work they produce. More importantly, technology enables and demands sharing and collaboration. Data, Talent, Materials, Capital and Infrastructure need to come together for Intelligent Outcomes. Operations and Innovation have to mutually manifest the rapid cycles of growth that is mandated.
Future of Work
Pervasive Computing and Enmeshed Networks provide the opportunity for being global locally rediscovering trade balances. At the same time, advancing causes such as Sustainability that addresses Diversity, Equity and Inclusion while delivering Growth. Learning, Sharing and Collaborating are the ways and means for renewing life on planet.
