Every organization must be prepared to compete in the global marketplace as technology has virtually eliminated time and distance as significant barriers to competing anywhere in the world. You may not choose to promote your products and services in international markets, but you cannot prevent others from around the world from selling in your backyard.

No one can predict where the next big breakthrough in their industry will come from or what entirely new industries will emerge to impact their business.

The explosion of information and knowledge has made the ability to learn more important than experience.

Better informed customers and shareholders will continue to exert enormous pressure to perform—to do more with less.

Mergers, acquisitions, alliances, and joint ventures will continue to reshape the organizational landscape, making it impossible for any corporation to guarantee job security or its own survival today.

Nimble organizations that learn and act fast in response to changing market conditions offer the best hope for individual job security and organizational profitability.

People entering the workforce today will change teams, jobs and companies much more frequently than in the past—making team skills more valuable than ever.
