MY FAVORITE DISRUPTIVE CHANGE

Big Data. “Big data is a real disruptive change because it’s data that could not be cost-effectively managed by our old techniques. 



“In the past five years or so, we’ve had a whole new slew of technologies that have come aboard that have allowed us to manage that information, and companies are also learning how to use that information with their data science to turn it into profit. This is data that accumulates very rapidly. It’s stuff like sensor data reads, social data, video, audio, click stream data — very fine grain data that we’ve just been letting go in the past. But now we have a way to manage it and translate it into corporate value. 



“I think it’s going to be a very strong component of how companies compete in the next decade.”

Let's Disrupt This!

Big data is a big part of our future, of your future. Your job and your role as a parent or citizen or community member are going to be more and more influenced by the data that your To Dos generate. You can’t control or change that. 



But what you can do is: Ask better questions, dig deeper. All the underlying assumptions about how things get done are changing. You need to question the assumptions and root causes of the challenges presented to you before you take them on.
