Description
Summary:Accelerating change + growing complexity = increase in wicked problems. [...]transformational leadership is required. When metrics representing population growth, life expectancy, transportation speed, communication speed and volume, medical advancements, computing power, material strength, energy production and many more sought-after improvement areas are displayed over time, the changes appear exponential (Figure 1). [...]centuries of experimentation with the practical application of pressure differentials caused by fluid flow (Bernoulli's principle) with boat sails produced advancements in sea power. [...]the human factor is integral to this phenomenon of accelerated change, subject to all the stresses delivered by leaps in technology.
