We'll experience a new age of productivity about a decade from now, and it will come from all of today’s advances: AI, robotics, large amounts of data that allow us to better understand our world and our humanity, creating a positive future.

Long-promised, long-awaited, and still missing, corporate productivity gains driven by all our technology will be in 2028.

Weldon set a target date for achieving the long-promised, long-awaited, and still missing, corporate productivity gains driven by all our technology. 2028.

“We’ve quantified when a Digital Age leap in productivity will occur that will resemble the leaps from the previous eras.

“The good news is that we will experience a new age of productivity about a decade from now, and it will come from all of today’s advances: AI, robotics, large amounts of data that allow us to better understand our world and our humanity, creating a positive future.

“The lack of significant improvement in economic productivity over past 30 years despite the rapid advances and growing investments in information and communications technologies, and the digitization and global interconnection of whole industries, has been a topic of much concern and debate among economists and policy makers.”

In The Rise and Fall of American Growth, economist Robert Gordon “makes a provocative but persuasive argument that the significant jump in productivity during 1940’s was a one-time event. Gordon argues that the current advances in Information Technology pale in social impact compared to ‘Great Inventions’ of the first and second Industrial Revolutions.”

What Gordon got right, according to Bell Labs, is that productivity skyrocketed not when companies leveraged new technologies in each of the previous revolutions, but when four basic infrastructures hit their tipping points in revolutionized changes:

• Energy (gas, electric)

• Health and Sanitation

• Transportation

• Communication (telegraph, telephone)

Bell Labs postulates “that the combination of four physical networked infrastructure technologies — communication, energy, transportation, health and sanitation [plus a fifth, digital production] — are the foundational set of technologies that underpin” the next major leaps in productivity.

We need leaders who completely reframe productivity, viewing it through a fourth revolution perspective.

That shift radically alters our relationship with our workforce. We’ve got to shift the unending burden to produce morebetterfaster on human beings, and place it where it belongs — within our integrated infrastructures.

We’ve got to free humans to do more of what they do best. Think. Create. Innovate. Disrupt. Care. Be their best.

Will Automation make human work obsolete?

Will Automation make human work obsolete? Robots now build cars and power mechanical diggers and other "dumb" jobs. What will surprise you is how quickly "mechanical minds" are making human brain labor less in demand. Still think robots can’t do your job? Automation and robotics will eventually take over most of the tasks, especially the labor expensive ones, as computing gets smarter. Talk of robots making humans obsolete is generally a topic that is still laughed off as science fiction by most, but this video could get you to rethink the future human work. It lays out a compelling case for why almost half of those currently in the work force could struggle to find work once automation takes over in the near future. Unlike "the singularity," in which artificial intelligence takes over the planet in rapid and dramatic fashion, this paints a picture, backed up by statistics and current developments, indicating that the true singularity will occur gradually,...

How do you think & act?

At work & at home, each of us has been & again will be in communication. Our personal communication styles will dictate to a great extent our success in coordinating action & in relationships. It's unfortunate that we usually enter into communication situations without an awareness of our personal styles of communicating. We just do what comes naturally to us (but not necessarily to others.) One thing is certain every communicator anywhere continually THINKS & ACTS. This is where we begin our exploration of communication styles: how we Think & Act? In the Communication Styles , there are two thinking styles, and two acting styles, Acting Style 1: The Stimulators as you might guess, people with this acting style strive to implement new actions quickly & intuitively, without structure. On teams & in meetings, stimulators will speak up to suggest easier ways to accomplish work & will be the first to embrace new approaches to old problems. Because they ...

Develop Your Personal Brand

Having a good professional reputation is an obvious key to success, but many people don't take the time to nurture it. Or they don't know how. I find it helpful to think about a reputation as a personal brand. Developing your own unique brand is considered not a luxury but an essential for future employability and success.  The basis which guides the development of a brand, also applies to individuals as well as to products and organizations.  To get you started on your journey of ongoing individual brand development, contemplate these three concepts, which form a similar acronym:  Dependability A good brand is consistent. With a good brand, there are never any unpleasant surprises. You can count on a brand to help you quickly sort through an unlimited list of options to identify "a sure thing." In the old days, there was a sales adage that went something like this: "Nobody ever got in trouble for purchasing IBM." If you aren't old enough to recall exa...

Google's Augmented Reality Glass: Project Glass

After months of speculation, Google revealed some information (on April 4th, 2012 to be specific) about the Project Glass. Instead of using a smartphone to find information about an object, translate a text, get directions, compare prices, you can use smart glasses that augment the reality and help you understand more about things around you. Google says "We think technology should work for you—to be there when you need it and get out of your way when you don't. A group of us from Google [x] started Project Glass to build this kind of technology, one that helps you explore and share your world, putting you back in the moment". Since, it has been more than a week, I had a good chance to read and analyze most of the views several Tech blogs and experts shared about this project. Here are few more details, about Project Glass and with whom my opinion synced well. Google's concept glasses have a: a) Camera, b) Microphone, c) 3G/4G data connection (to send and r...
