New Rules for the New Economy

Great time this month with Kevin Kelly dipping in his mind reading New Rules for the New Economy. Much learning to be had as with most reading undertaken with a curious mindset. Some may be put off when something is not hot-off-the-shelf and they miss out. Even though New Rules for the New Economy is not new there are gems to be mined. Are you a life-long learner? Is growth a passion? Does Sri Ramakrishna speak of you when he said, “Do not seek illumination unless you seek it as a man whose hair is on fire seeks a pond.”?

Speaking of our ‘culture technology’ Kevin quotes Laurie Anderson; “Technology is the campfire around which we gather.”  It is not the technology that is king, it is that technology enhances our communication. Technology enhances our story telling.

Rule 9 Relationship Tech – “Networks haul relations the way rivers once hauled freight.” How will you amplify your relations?

Welcome to the new economy.
