Fourth Industrial Revolution – Davos 2017
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is upon us and the implications on society, economy and culture are tremendous… For some of us in the field, we notice the rate of the change. The speed of the technological revolution is incredible.
Every leader, no matter how small or large, high or low your position is, needs to make sure this continues to be a top of mind topic. We need to understand it, manage it and help everyone in the transition.
I am very happy to see that the topic was top of mind at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2017 in Davos, Switzerland. I am more pleased that they made all the sessions available for the world to see… The global representation of the presenters was impressive.
