A few weeks ago, as I was digging through some paper records (remember those things?), I ran across a paper I had written in grad school (latter half of the 80s) about stakeholders. All my thinking I put into that paper and the experiences I’ve had since caused me to begin to rethink the 2010s series.
My apologies for the delay as I integrate this into my thinking. It is important. No, it’s critical. One of the key “truths” I’ve come to is that the 80s began personal computing and the spread of focused computing in enterprises. The 90s was about interconnecting on a common technical network and the rise in exploitation of behavior capture through interactions (think database mining). The Aughts was about the rise (and beginning of the fall) of unlimited global social networking.
I’m rethinking my strategy thoughts in the light of this and focusing on finding a generative strategy for moving forward.
