1) Technological innovations like smartwatches create "technological fields" that have gravitational pull on companies, similarly to how black holes pull objects.
2) As with relativity, time passes more slowly for objects moving very fast or near strong gravitational fields. For companies, moving toward new technologies results in time passing more slowly, keeping them younger.
3) Smartwatches in particular are poised to have a major impact due to their multi-functionality, health tracking abilities, and proximity to users on their wrists. Companies that embrace smartwatches will age more slowly while those that resist will age more quickly.

Technology, progress and the emergence of collective intelligenceRoberto Siagri
This document discusses exponential growth versus linear growth and how humans naturally think linearly. It provides an example of exponentially folding a sheet of paper to illustrate how exponential growth is counterintuitive. Technology progresses exponentially as each new innovation builds on previous ones in an S-curve pattern, unlike nature which follows S-curves but is ultimately limited by resources. The document examines how technology allows "doing more with much less" by compressing matter, energy, space and time through innovation and miniaturization. It argues this trend will continue as more "intelligence" in the form of information and computing power is incorporated into everyday objects.
1) The future is shaped more by our ability to imagine what can be done with new technologies, rather than the technologies themselves. We interpret new things based on our own experiences.
2) Broad-bandwidth thinkers are helping form the future by envisioning possibilities and dragging others along, not by extrapolating trends. This is similar to the Renaissance, fueled by polymaths and craftspeople.
3) Emergent behaviors, reactions to new products/services, will continue playing a big role in shaping the future as communication accelerates. The future remains uncertain.

Disrupting the Discourse of the "Digital Disruption of _____"Randy Connolly
Talk given at University of Applied Sciences for Management and Communication in Vienna in January 2017. It critically interrogates the narrative of digital disruption. It will describe some of the contemporary psychological and social research about the digital lifeworld and make some broader observations about how to best think about technological change.
1) The document discusses how humans tend to view the future through an "intuitive linear view" where they assume the future will be similar to the present rather than recognizing gradual changes.
2) It uses the metaphor of an ant's perspective on a roller coaster track to illustrate this point, where from close up the track appears flat but from above its clear it curves upward.
3) The development of technologies like computers, the internet, and new manufacturing methods like nanotechnology are given as examples of changes that were not anticipated by previous generations but will significantly impact the future in the same way past innovations transformed society.
Understanding the Elements and Characteristics of a Trend.pptxFlourlynSotto1
The document discusses trends, including their key elements and characteristics. It defines a trend as a pattern of change over time that can be observed in data. Trends have elements like the number of participants, patterns of behavior, and lasting a long period of time. They also have causes that start them and consequences from their impact. The document outlines different types of trends from microtrends to gigatrends, with examples given. Microtrends are small, observable changes while megatrends are large shifts that affect many people over decades. Understanding trends requires analyzing these elements and characteristics.
The document discusses how the future often appears flat and linear from our current perspective, similar to how the horizon appears flat from the ground or a track appears flat to an ant. However, just as the horizon curves and a track leads up a hill, technological changes often occur gradually over time in an S-curve pattern. Molecular manufacturing and nanotechnology may lead to especially rapid and disruptive changes similar to previous industrial revolutions but on an accelerated timescale. It is important to gain a broader perspective to recognize and prepare for upcoming technological changes rather than assume the future will be similar to the present.
This document provides an overview of the evolving career advice ecosystem. It discusses how careers have changed radically due to technology and will continue accelerating. Traditional top-down career advice models are being replaced by peer-to-peer social network approaches enabled by technology. The document analyzes the career advice space through the lens of evolutionary theory, discussing variation, selection, and amplification of ideas. It argues that punctuated bursts of change are disrupting traditional static career advice systems. Young people now access career information and advice from a wide variety of online and offline sources using their attention in dynamic ways.

This essay discusses three main functions or justifications of punishment: retribution, deterrence, and rehabilitation. It argues that while retribution and deterrence aim to enforce justice and prevent future crimes, rehabilitation should be the primary goal of punishment in order to reform criminals and reintegrate them into society.
Punishment serves several important functions in society. First, it achieves retribution, or just deserts, by inflicting harm on criminals in response to the harm they caused. This enforces society's view that criminal acts deserve punishment. Second, punishment deters crime. The threat of punishment is meant to discourage would-be criminals
The document describes some of the author's cherished childhood memories of family trips in a minivan, including trips to Disney World, the beach, and the mountains. At Disney World, the author was too excited to sleep due to anticipation of the theme park. At the beach, the author enjoyed finding seashells and learned from their father about different ocean creatures like jellyfish, skates, and sand fiddlers. In the mountains, the author went hiking and was fascinated by the different types of trees.

The document discusses the concept of progress and how it is socially constructed. It questions whether technological advancement necessarily leads to meaningful progress or improved lives. While societies often view new technologies as progress, this view obscures the complex social networks needed to develop, produce and maintain technologies, and may cause people to overlook issues caused by certain technologies. The narrative of progress also prevents examination of alternative views of social organization and human purpose.
Future Outlook on Urban CompetitivenessWendy Schultz
The narrative of my 22 June 2010 presentation to the Global Innovation Forum in Seoul, sponsored by the Korea Economic Daily. Please refer to PDF of slidedeck, above.
The document discusses writing a short essay on the broad and profound theme of life, noting that it requires the ability to distill complex ideas into concise and impactful statements while balancing personal reflection with universal relevance. It acknowledges the challenges of selecting life experiences to focus on within a short scope, conveying meaningful insights concisely, and maintaining objectivity given the personal nature of the topic. Overall, the document asserts that composing a short essay on life demands creativity, introspection, and an understanding of the complexities of the human experience.

El documento argumenta que la noción de "perfil bajo" para los empresarios es una etiqueta errónea, ya que el perfil se construye a través de valores, actitudes y acciones más que subir o bajar la exposición. Los empresarios deberían esforzarse tanto en construir su imagen como en otras áreas de sus negocios, en lugar de dejar que otros creen su perfil, para poder controlar cómo son percibidos.

1. Mobile devices are becoming ubiquitous and marketing must adapt to target mobile professionals on the go. A clear, simple message will be key to success in reaching these mobile users.
2. Companies are becoming more fearful in times of global crisis and economic uncertainty. Those that continue investing in customer engagement, even minimally, will gain an advantage over competitors.
3. The IT market is becoming saturated with similar offerings, so differentiation is important. Simplifying messages using concrete language and examples, rather than abstract concepts, will help companies stand out from the noise.
Nearshoring IT development to Argentina offers time zone alignment with major US cities. Matching working hours between project owners and leaders is vital for success but hiring from different time zones creates complications. Argentina has the same time zone as the eastern US seaboard, allowing development teams to be available during regular US working hours with less stress. Working with Argentina means the CIO will collaborate with people on the project simultaneously.

Five Trends in Management to follow during 2016Interbrand
1) IT departments are shifting from a support role to a strategic business unit focused on innovation and competitive advantage. More IT managers are obtaining executive leadership positions.
2) Innovation requires significant resources but must be focused and aligned with organizational goals to be successful rather than just an artistic exercise.
3) Delivery of technology is key for IT departments but must be balanced with agility to adapt to a company's culture and ways of working. Agile methods should enhance performance, not hinder it.
The document summarizes a software project called SIGNO that was developed by Quadion for the Chamber of Notaries of the City of Buenos Aires. The 8-month project involved 3,000 hours of effort to create an electronic billing software. The software allows notaries to create invoices and budgets based on templates, integrate with tax authorities' web services, and includes accounting and client relationship management features. It addresses the challenge of new tax rules in Argentina requiring electronic billing for professional services.
Three Trends in Human Resources to follow during 2016Interbrand
1) Companies must focus on developing their employees through training and work-life balance policies like flexible hours and breaks to attract and retain top talent in IT.
2) Job searching has become mobile as new apps allow professionals to search and apply for jobs from any device at any time, increasing competition for candidates.
3) Remote work technologies are enabling meetings and collaboration to occur outside the traditional office, fostering creativity while saving time and costs compared to commuting.
1. Mobile devices are becoming ubiquitous and marketing must adapt to target mobile professionals on the go. A clear, simple message will be key to success in reaching this new mobile audience.
2. In times of crisis, companies grow fearful and cut investments, but those that continue investing in customer dialogue, even at a minimum, will gain an advantage. Seeing "crisis" as both an opportunity and danger implies the early investors will capture consumer mindshare.
3. The IT market is saturating as offerings become increasingly similar; distinguishing oneself by simplifying messaging and focusing on concrete differences rather than abstract concepts or claims of superiority will help companies stand out.

This document provides an overview of social media and why companies should engage with it. In 3 sentences: It discusses how social media usage has grown tremendously, with billions of users worldwide spending significant time on sites like Facebook and YouTube. While many companies have a social media presence, most do not truly engage with customers and communities through two-way conversations. The document argues that for companies to truly benefit from social media, they need to define a strategic approach focused on conversations rather than one-way marketing and be willing to listen to and engage with customers.

and date.
The brother traveling stays in outer space for one year. When he comes back, he finds that his
brother has grown a lot older than he has. Perhaps two years, or five, or fifty. Had the former stayed
longer in space, his brother could have died of natural causes. Time passed differently for each of
them.
All is relative.
Relativity states that if Charlie - the brother sent to space- travels at 90% the speed of light (aka ‘c’,
hence ‘Charlie’) his watch, his inner clock, his body, even his synaptic connections will tick 44%
slower than Sebastian’s (the ‘staying’ one). If Charlie is sent at 99% of the speed of light, his time will
tick 14% slower than Sebastian’s (the staying brother). Finally, at 99.9% of the speed of light, his
clock will tick 4.5% slower than his brother’s. In this last scenario, 'when the second brother comes
back, he will have aged 5 year whereas the first will have aged 110 years.’ (1 - Neil deGrasse
Thyson)
Why is that? Due to gravity and velocity. The closer to one of these forces an object is, relativity
states, the slower times passes on through it. And the stronger gravity or velocity are, the more
profound the effect.
This is explained by Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity and Lorent’z Postulate of Time
Transformation: a moving watch will experience a slower passing of time in relation to a
stationary one.
So, the brother aboard the spaceship and the brother on earth will experience different (or relative)
time spans. The one traveling -or moving- undergoes a slower lapse, which has a much softer
impact on him. The one staying on earth -or staying still- will endure a harder impact.
The former, on the move, will age more slowly and enjoy a prolonged youth. The latter, motionless,
will go through that process faster, perishing at a relative earlier stage.
The same occurs when exposed to a gravity field. The bigger the field and stronger the gravity, the
slower the time passage.
3. If we metaphorically extrapolate physics to other areas of life, standing still will translate as growing
old, languishing, dying. On the contrary, moving or exposing oneself to stronger forces will mean
staying younger, enduring, living.
The Physics of Businesses.
The laws of physics can not be applied directly to companies and brands. Nevertheless, they create
an excellent analogy to explain some of the phenomena experienced in arenas such as business,
management and marketing resulting from the introduction of new technologies.
Brands and companies have a lifecycle: they are born, grow, get strong, grow old, decay and in most
cases, disappear. Time affects them.
Let’s imagine that competing enterprises are twin brothers. One of them travels in space (in our
metaphor, it moves) and the other stays on earth (it stays still).
Time, like space, is a relative magnitude. But unlike the latter, time can not be traveled forward or
backwards. 'Time can be bent or squeezed, but it can't run backwards’. (2 - Interstellar, 2015.)
Similarly, a company gets going through space, but not through time. It can, for example, make the
decision during its first quarter of the year to penetrate a different niche, develop a new product,
or adopt a new technology.
Whether the strategy is -or is not correct- the firm can always
go forward, backwards or sideways: leave the market, go
deeper into the niche, invest heavier on technology. What the
company is not able to do however, is go back in time, and at
the closing of the fiscal year say: "Let's return to Q1 and
disregard investing on this technology".
Time passes and space coordinates vary. The first gives no
options but the second does.
In physics, time can not be modified, but its effects can be
altered by managing velocity or proximity to a gravity field. That general principle is applicable to
clocks, spaceships or people. Again, it is an analogy to what happens to companies.
In space, the faster one goes ahead, or the closer to a gravitational field one is, the more sluggish
the elapse, the younger one stays, and the more relevant one remains.
The same applies to brands and businesses. Only that gravitational forces do not appear when
nearing the speed of light, bigger planets or blackholes.
They come when the company -or brand- face different circumstances that heavily impact on them:
changes in consumer trends, capital issues, market shifts, regulatory matters or technological
innovations.
Coming from wherever they might, these events always have something in common: weight. For
they sort of gravitate in a companies' life. Hence, this weight is often referred to as 'gravity'. The
more ‘gravity’ an event or situation has, the broader its impact.
A company gets
going through
space, but not
through time.
4. Over the last years, companies have encountered technological innovations as one of their
toughest and most disruptive challenges ever.
Technology Fields.
Like giant blackholes, new technologies have appeared mostly unforeseen and have impacted
companies, markets and businesses alike. Some were sucked in, some destroyed and torn apart;
and while some contracted, others expanded. Whatever the case, the event horizon pulled them,
and their business were accelerated or sent to a different dimension.
Over the last decade, thanks to the massive digitalization of society and businesses, corporations
have come near a new form of gravity fields, which we will call Technological Fields.
Varied in form and size, these technological fields imply different advances, happening
silently,iteration after iteration, before they explode in one singular event that alters the landscape
around it forever.
Technological Fields have, since the inception of the contemporary digital world in the 1950’s,
elevated or buried firms, as well as created and transformed markets. Think of the personal
computer, the internet, the world wide web,
the graphical user interfase, social networks,
blogs, digital photography, search engines,
emails, smartphones, tablets, cloud services, e
-commerce, software as a service, smart TVs,
mobile apps, digital entertainment stores or
streaming services.
All of these tech fields have had their impact.
Uber, for example, car riding app, is taking on
the taxi consortium; Amazon, an online retailer
is eating brick and mortar retail stores; Google,
born as a web search engine, defies the status
quo of advertising and media purchasing;
iTunes, a digital entertainment store created
the conditions to bring physical stores to a
closing; and Netflix -a streaming service and
content producer- competed against DVD
rental stores and beat them.
Tech Fields do not always have an easy genesis to spot. Often, they are of such magnitude, that
is impossible to avoid, escape or deflect them, even from their very humble beginnings. And what
brands are facing today -and being pulled towards- is a new technological domain, a gigantic
uncertainty of an immense force called
“Wearable Technology”.
Wearables come in many forms: bracelets, smartglasses, clothing, GPS watches, activity trackers and
many others. So far, enterprises have managed to stay in a relatively safe orbit, just out of its gravity
pull. But with the surge and massification of smartwatches and the introduction of the Apple Watch
in particular, the event horizon is quickly approaching, and its gravitational pull will become ‘so great
as to make escape impossible’. (3) Neil DeGrase Thyson
There are three key elements smartwatches possess to create such a gravitational effect:
multi-usage; health tracking and body proximity.
Technological Fields
have, since the inception
of the contemporary
digital world in the
1950’s, elevated or
buried firms, as well as
created and transformed
markets.
5. As a general principle, smartwatches allow people to perform mostly all the technological hand
interactions right from their wrists: controlling the home’s thermostat, moving through a
presentation’s slides, responding to an SMS, turning on the lights, etc.
While smartwatches are not presented -for the time
being- as replacements for smartphones, they allow
their users to let go of their devices for some time
during the day, just as they do with their computers.
Besides, as batteries become longer lasting, and
smartwatches resist better the exposure to the
elements (water resistance, etc…), they slinger
attached to their users’ wrist. Eventually, they will
become a regular part of the person’s ecosystem and
fully synergize with their daily lives.
As industry analyst and blogger John Gruber recounts on his podcast The Talk Show (Episode #118
- "Sloppy on the side”, may 2015), it is now common at Apple’s HQ to have people getting up from
their chairs in the middle of a meeting, standing for a minute or two. Why is that so? Because it
commonplace now to have their smartwatches tell them to get up and do some exercise.
If such levels of interaction have been reached only months after the introduction of a product, the
devices’ use penetration into a person’s life will soon become exponential.
Smartwatches will not bend time for their users, but they will for brands.
Keep Moving.
Time being relative, it will not run exactly the same for all of them. As in interstellar travel, time will
run more sluggishly for those accepting, approaching and adopting the technology. The brand’s
clock will run slower on them, and the effects of the passing of time will be more gentle.
On the contrary, for those companies staying on the surface, and avoiding the event horizon, time
will seem to dash. At the end of the day they will become older, long before the brands accepting
the challenge.
As time bends in the new technological arena, the former businesses will prove efficient in
stretching it, remaining young, healthy, close to their users. They will survive. The latter will, hard
as they may try, perish.
Biology, psychology and physiology evidence that when a person moves -be it by migration, heading
emotionally or psychologically towards or from an event, or exercising their bodies-, they avoid
getting involved in a lethargic time passing. The key to staying young is “Moving”.
Technological fields are showing that going forward is the only path for an enterprise to stay young.
With smartwatches, this is more visible than ever. And as the event horizon gets closer, managers
will learn that while business and economics laws can be altered or avoided, the laws of physics
definitely can not.
