well we’ve all been speaking about the
baby boomers Gen X and Y’s Millennials
all that right very familiar well let me
tell you it’s familiar it actually does
not explain what’s happening globally
let’s begin by realized the only about
one-third of the planet ever had a baby
boom to begin with we’ll take baby poops
for granted but two-thirds of the world
never had one and I bet you’ve heard
something like this before right
children now love luxury they have bad
manners
come temporal Authority and they show
this respect for all the people they
love gossip and they don’t like activity
her dad yeah well guess what that was
sent by Socrates 2,400 years ago okay so
a generation gap is nothing new as a
rapper to be amazing it how consistent
the opinions have into the thousands of
years you know that’s really surprising
but it’s nothing new would so what we’re
living right now is not your average
generational gap it is not created by
generations range what we’re going
through is created by the incredible
autumn unprecedent leap in technology
we’ve created in the last 30 years that
never been seen before in human history
and that is coming right back and
shaping afters humans that’s what it
really meant the key it’s the the big
difference is digital immigrants and
digital natives that’s tough happening
right now digital immigrants are people
like my talk of who were born waiting
for the web and we spend a lot of our
life without any virtual environments we
had to migrate into them now digital
natives are people like my 13 year old
son who were born with those virtual
environments and for them it’s like
that’s where it is drew was sitting you
know this is valid for
which is correct so we are actually
seeing right now it’s not really a
generational gap which has always
existed there’s always been a
generational gap what we’re seeing is
actually a generational break on
fundamentals had existed for thousands
of years like the concept of community
for thousands of years community has
been a physical concept you want to be
with your community and all of a sudden
less than two generations it has become
a virtual concept your community goes
with you wherever you go and it’s all
mine that’s what’s really happening and
that can’t break it’s happening in how
the work how we see communication how we
see ourselves and how is the world in
general it’s all changing all coming new
fundamentals okay that’s where it’s at
and it’s the time to ask ourselves how
those breaks taking us where we should
be going
are those breaks in from the metals
leading to a positive place companies
expected you know all the IT staff to
make us more productive more active
right well guess what there’s nothing
called a solo paradox that has analyzed
a very strange phenomenon from 1939 to
the year 2000 the average annual
increase in individual productivity in
the US was 0.7% per year from the year
2000 um that wasn’t crashing down 2.9
percent per year and the only
correlation they’ve been able to find is
the intensive use of ITT so now don’t
get me wrong I love technology I like it
I like it very much I do a lot of my
work online and you know it saves me a
lot of time and a lot of effort
but here’s the thing I use technology
I’d never let technology gives me it’s a
mindful using technology so when you’re
faced with new technologies or any kind
of technology ask yourself is this
technology making me barek physically is
it making you better emotionally is it
making me better intellectually is it
making me better professionally if the
answer is no but it’s really fun well
look at it like I don’t know like you
would look at the killer or cake are
really fun and really great but if you
have too much of it not gonna be good
for you so that it’s mindful use of
technology I’ve been helping
organizations for over 15 years of my
life achieve that kind of mindful use of
technology and I can attest personally
how what a big incredible change it
makes in the quality of work and of life
for people really we humans have a
tendency to give more importance and
preeminence to some of the things we
create than to ourselves witness how
many cities here in the US how many
suburbs I created for the car but for
people but just try to get without a car
so we cannot know that I had the
privilege of studying Kendall which is
the Japanese art of the sport with an
amazing teacher tak Pico sail sail
he came from an image of over 500 years
of samurai family this beautiful amazing
katana 300 years old and one day I still
remember in one of the classics we were
having he pointed to his sword and said
you know I could let you have my sword
which he would never do that and I could
take a booster a broomstick and beat you
like a second flat yes she yeah we
believed him and he said something he
said remember that the most important
thing is never the sword it is the
person wheels it so this is the time
to really ask ourselves starting an
earth in conversation about what kind of
new fundamentals will be creating and
about making really sure that those new
fundamentals leaders to create and
develop better humans and very portly
better communities
