In the coming decade the world will experience technologically enabled economic change that will redefine the role of western civilization in the global economy.
Cloud based services and intelligent hardware will be far more disruptive on existing business models than the advent of the commercially viable internet a decade ago.
The opportunity for a new era of entrepreneurial activity worldwide will be supported by these new, lower cost communications, computation and media technologies.
New opportunties for leveraging technology innovation will allow undeveloped and developing countries to accelerate their economic growth and become global competitors at a speed that we have not experienced in the past 50 years.
Management and leadership in public and private sectors will have to actually adapt their companies and organizations in order to remain viable in the face of more agressive competition.
The traditional business education, management and IT models of the past 25 years are rapidly becoming obsolete. A western MBA may only have a shelf life of 3-5 years, there will be as much emphasis on agile and flexible cost based management as there is on tactical leadership; temporary competitive advantage will become more important and possible than sustained competitive advantage. IT as we know it will slowly disappear.
The disruptions in the western dominance of commerce will be larger and more impactful than is anticipated. The creative destruction cycles of capitalism are now being accelerated by the global proliferation of foundational and rapidly scalable technologies.
The Brenva Institute will provide the needed knowledge development and knowledge transfer programs to support the need anticipation and learning required by our clients.
