“Every few hundred years in Western History there occurs a sharp

transformation. Within a few short decades, society rearranges itself….its worldview; its basic values; its social and political structure; its arts; its key

institutions. Fifty years later, there is a new world. And the people born then

cannot even imagine the world in which their grandparents lived. We are

currently living through just such a transformation. It is creating the post-

capitalist society.”

……Peter Drucker

Rethinking Change

Reforming Change

Transformational Change

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one

that is the most adaptable to change.

Charles Darwin

It’s not that you want to make things simpler, it’s that you want to make them as simple as

possible.

…….Albert Einstein

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.

To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

….. Buckminster Fuller

actually learn to do is how to navigate it.”
