It’s Time . . .

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


The Accelerative Thrust


With Powerful Changes Swirling Around Us and Demanding Ever Quicker Responses,

 

It Often Feels as Though We are Swimming Faster and Faster Against a Huge, Unstoppable Wave.

And We Are


 

 


Perhaps Like the Surfer

We Should Use the Energy of the Wave Itself to Carry Us Forward

The 2nd Wavethe Rise of Industrial Civilization

Today, the ADVANCING WAVE is Even More ACCELERATIVE

 

 

THE 3rd WAVEThe Knowledge Age


 

It’s Sweeping Across History and Will Complete Itself in a Couple Decades

 Those of Us Who Happen to Share the Planet at this Explosive Moment, 

Will Feel the Full Impact of THE 3rd WAVE

—Alvin Toffler—

 


 This is the New Amazing!


 

 


This is the Trip We’re Taking


 

Humanity Faces a Quantum Leap Forward

 

We are Experiencing the Birth Pangs of a New Civilization

Whose Institutions are Not Yet in Place

 

 This NEW WORLD Brings

 

New Family Styles, Changed Ways of Working, Loving and Living,  New Economy, New Sources of Energy,

and New Political Conflicts as well

 The Greatest Social Restructuring of All Time! 


The Greedy & Blind Try to Suppress and Control It

Key-to-Aging

 


This is The Chance We’re Taking !


 


We Must Identify Each New Technology Challenge

 

We Have to Match Each Challenge with a Dynamic and Flexible Community Approach

No One Knows What the Future Holds or

What Will Work Best in a Third Wave Society

For this Reason, We Should Think

Not of a Single Massive Reorganization

 

 

But Many Conscious, Decentralized Local Projects to Validate New Technologies and Lifestyle Models for Advancing Lives in Our Communities and Sharing the Knowledge

 

 

— Open Validation of Emerging Technologies 

& Community Participation

 

 

Adaptive Communities are Enablers, Empowering People with Relevant Functional Experience and Awareness for Negotiating Rapid Change

 

 


The Race to the Bottom that Globalization has Triggered is No Longer a Viable Strategy for a Knowledge Economy


Economic Actors Will Increasingly Understand that They Should Invest in Producing Collaborative Value

and Creating Collaborative Economic Ecosystems

that Foster Creativity, Knowledge, Identity, and Trust

 

 

 


The Best Way to Predict Your Future is to Create It

But in Advancing Toward What Will Be”
