Apps, Nets, services, companies

All available by the score for every conceivable opportunity (and) space ??

All well documented and advertised !

The divisions between people, peoples, devices and things, plus machines of all kinds are being eroded by need, opportunity, and the necessity to reduce waste in the interests of finding sustainable solutions…

A future of collaboration includes machines and things on the move

interdependenceNo company, institution, government, big or small can afford all the in house resources and expertise they need… …they have no choice but to adopt networking and sharing…

…and this is mostly on a global and highly dynamic scale!

old  methodsFundamentally unable to meet our needs and satisfy the demands of a technologically driven world…

…we need an entirely new approach to the way we work, solve problems, create new products and solutions

Experience  &  InstinctServed us well in a slow, disconnected and well behaved linear world …but now they are very often dangerous…

…in a fast, highly connected and non-linear world, things are not generally well behaved and emergent behaviours are the norm

INSTANT  EXPERTISE

Remembering stuff and processes is no longer sufficient…

…we need better problem solving skills and more creativity…to realise sustainable economies and futures…

Comprehension

Our single biggest challenge is to understand the natural world, and the one we created and now live in…which is accelerating faster than ever before…

…both are non-linear, choatic (in the mathematical sense) and confounding !

On the day they graduate to treating patients about 50% o f eve r y th i n g t hey were taught and learned is out of date…

…and no matter how they tr y they cannot keep on top of c l inical advances and stand no chance of reading all the published works…even in the specialisms they are defeated by the speed of advance…
