In 1960, 50% of the work force was involved in manufacturing—making things. By the year 2000, only 15% were involved in making things and 66% were in the service sector.

Mobile phone subscribers jumped from zero in 1983 to 200 million in 2006. Technology is radically changing the speed and direction of work flow and communication. The housing boom and bust, the credit crunch, the price of oil—all play a major role in running a successful business. The vision must remain dynamic and flexible to survive changing world realities.
