Drowning in a Sea of Choice
It’s almost eerie to read what management consultant Peter Drucker predicted many years ago:
“In a few hundred years, when the history of our time is written from a long-term perspective, it is likely that the most important event those historians will see is not technology, not the Internet, not e-commerce. It is an unprecedented change in the human condition. For the first time—literally substantial and rapidly growing numbers of people have choices. For the first time, they will have to manage themselves. And society is unprepared for it.”
In my upcoming book, No-Drama Leadership, there are many ideas about dialing up or dialing down choice to increase focus or increase freedom.
