On the individual level, the problem is that many people aren’t into the idea of continuous improvement. So they’re working in a company—maybe they’ve been there for ten or fifteen years—but instead of having fifteen years of experience, they really have only one year of experience repeated fifteen times! They’re not adapting to the changes required by the new global economy. As a result, they don’t develop the credibility that would inspire greater trust and opportunity. Often they become obsolete. Their company and/or the external markets outgrow them.
