This document appears to be notes from multiple corporate startup summits on November 15th and 16th, 2017. It discusses how power is changing and becoming easier to gain but harder to use and lose. Specifically, it notes that factors that traditionally kept power structures in place like size, money, armies, and technology are being overwhelmed by mobility, mentality shifts, and other changes. The notes provide tips for companies and individuals to survive and thrive with the end of traditional forms of power, including not abusing any power gained, having patience, and taking extreme ownership.
