Those who forget history…

Bob Warfield has a great post where he writes

“Don’t confuse the natural process of breaking down and cleaning up the carrion of the last generation with the (un)likelihood there will be another generation.”

Amen.

We seem to have forgotten tech sectors mercilessly churn their leaders every few years.

I presented at Cognizant’s Community event a few months ago on the theme of Disruption in Technology and I used the following set up slides to make Bob’s points (click on each to make larger) - and then went on to talk about 10 major disruptive trends I see coming.

And of course, living in Florida I used the analogy of hurricanes. Believe me, a few years without a major storm and we forget about their intensity...it's the same with technology disruption.
