Multiple emerging technologies stand poised to alter many of the business and operational models currently in place and establish new models, industries, markets and expectations.  This will dramatically change the way organizations operate and the way business is conducted as well as what customers are likely to expect and demand.  A survey of professionals determined that only about 5% had initiatives underway and felt they were prepared. Clearly, organizations and professionals must aggressively adapt or risk becoming irrelevant.

It is nearly impossible keeping up these days. I don't know how most people can to be honest.

The only mitigation is to keep learning and be selective.

Dear Kevin
Interesting on your perspective: "Are you at risk of becoming irrelevant?"
Thanks for sharing

I am convinced that many organizations will become irrelevant ...
I see it replaced by other organizations ...

The question is:
- What will be the lifespan of new organizations?
