So, you’ve read and heard about disruption “this”
and “that” and have maybe, like me wondered, what has been disrupted and how
exactly. Apparently there is “the Law of
Disruption” – much like Murphy’s Law (more on that later) – and it has to do
with the dissemination of change being uneven, that is the ‘analog’ world is
not keeping pace with changes in the ‘digital’ world. Digital changes grow exponentially hence being
disruptive to our more contemplative analog world we live in physically that
grows incrementally. A world were our
elders do not necessarily understand computers and new technology, where the
rest of us who are not born after 2000 sometimes wonder how many new things we
will learn, adapt to and unlearn because they were a fad in an effort to keep
up and stay relevant, both for our jobs and our children.
