The Giving Pledge2, promises the world's richest families and individuals to dedicate most of their fortunes to charitable causes as a moral commitment, not legally binding, to establish a two-way path, because listening to people who want to help, you learn a lot from what they know; all human beings have something to contribute. If financial resources are basic, knowledge, management skills, and contacts also have the potential to generate value, and both need each other to do so; today we all have access to technology and anyone can break into a new market by applying the right knowledge.

Endeavor, a non-profit company, focuses on selecting and empowering entrepreneurs so that they become high-impact companies. They believe, in the words of its president, Edgar Bronfman Jr., who believes that capitalism is the best system for economic growth and needs to work for a larger group of people or it does NOT deserve to survive. The fact and the previous statement confirm that it is no longer an option to work in isolation due to the clear evolution towards collaboration, not competition.
Biden, president of the United States at the UN assembly in New York (Sept/20020) said: "democracy remains the greatest instrument of humanity to address the challenges of our time" and urged all countries to join the commitment to democracy, bearing in mind that the UN Charter serves as the basis for a just and peaceful order that is under attack by those who seek to distort it for their political benefit.

He recognized that although the challenges of today's world are great, "our capacity is greater than them and our commitment must be even greater."
“Let us stand together to re-declare the unequivocal determination that the nations of the world stand together, upholding the values ​​of the UN Charter. We are not silent witnesses of history, we are the authors of history. We can do it, we have to do it for ourselves, for our future, for humanity,” he concluded.

Pope Francis, responding to a question in an interview on the occasion of his first ten years of pontificate, about why some do not see him as a person who is not in favor of capitalism, said: "because they have ideological concepts that classify people before listening to them ”. He referred to the great step of Saint John Paul II, who spoke of the social market economy and qualified it as something lawful. He is not bad in himself. The opposite would be depersonalizing communism. Both are depersonalizing, if they are exaggerated; but a social economy fits the thinking of the church. “I do not condemn capitalism; I'm not against the market either. It is by no means wrong to produce wealth for the well-being of all; The creator of the work must be recognized.

Disruptive phenomena can occur anywhere in the world and it is not known when, which forces organizations to prepare for these eventualities and have the capacity to adapt to changes and, above all, to the speed of occurrence.

It is up to the governments to lead a change aimed at preparing society and re-educating it so that it leaves aside the Linear trend and moves on to the Exponential one, in order to be in accordance with technological development; to use Lateral or Parallel Thinking and leave Logical Thinking; to prioritize Sustainability, teamwork, under Holacracy (a form of organization in which authority and decision-making are distributed horizontally, without a hierarchical management structure); seek practical mechanisms to redistribute wealth and income and not stimulate accumulation, in addition to preparing entrepreneurs and programmers academically.

According to the German professor, Klaus Schwab, founder and general director of the World Economic Forum, the international non-profit organization that seeks to promote cooperation between the public and private sectors, the Fourth Industrial Revolution generates a world in which manufacturing systems Virtual and physical cooperate with each other in a flexible way at a global level, complementing the fusion of these technologies and their interaction through physical, digital and biological resources, which makes the Fourth Industrial Revolution different from the previous ones".

Also called the digital revolution, it is a process of change that the world has experienced and continues to feel every day. With the appearance of technologies such as analog (the signal to change from one value to another goes through all the intermediate numbers; it is continuous); then mechanics and electronics, complemented by digital technology, have caused a disruptive change in society and the economy.

As the analog signal is continuous, it can take infinite values, which enhances the positive evolution of the organizations that are capable of assimilating them, implementing new technologies allowing the achievement of better results in all aspects, and materializes in the generation of value, for the benefit of humanity.

The digital disruption produces a reordering of the world and helps to redistribute wealth, especially with regard to social inclusion, improvement in health, knowledge available to all and taking advantage of clean sources to lower energy prices, respecting Sustainability, attacking the socialism/capitalism dichotomy, promoting far-reaching political and economic changes; In addition, it facilitates social mobility and improves the quality of life.

Using exponential technologies it is possible to transform a traditional company into an exponential organization, a fundamental requirement to survive, developing or capturing abundance environments, and using new organizational management models, which allows protecting the current business model against disruption, and at the same time, explore other business models with new products and/or services.

The great objective of the fourth industrial revolution is the exchange of an economy of scarcity, for an abundance of resources. In addition to the changes that have already been presented, there will be other very important ones in artificial intelligence, energy sources, health sciences, the financial system, and technology will be free.

To take such a transcendental step, the starting point is to generate a culture of innovation and simultaneously seek a Massive Transformative Purpose. It is very motivating for human beings; it is to have a why, a reason, as a unifying tool that massifs thought, aimed at improving humanity as a whole. It describes a better future for the world and is worth the effort to achieve it; attract the customers, community, partners, and resources that are needed, even when it may never be fully achieved. It is your point of arrival that does not specify how but facilitates the change of direction.

The digital transformation facilitates such a transcendental change and allows those who are willing to accept it and work decisively with the new rules of the game to survive and get the most out of them, STARTING WITH HUMAN RESOURCES, duly reoriented with the new requirements and global changes, to know:

 

1. Speed

Technological variations occur faster and faster and it is time to make the most of the time that has been and will continue to be scarce.

Electronic commerce must offer the best price and speed of delivery, modernize transport, use new alternatives, and process high volumes of data (Big Data), which allow obtaining information on the particularities of customers and help detect new opportunities in products. And services to implement proper marketing techniques with good communications using modern trends (internet, mobile phone, personal computer, television, robots).

2. Purpose of Massive Transformation (PTM).
3. Extensive use of resources that are not owned by the company.
4. They make information their greatest asset.

 

Disruptive technology trends

At present, several technologies are already known that are expected to have a significant exponential impact, namely:

Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Artificial intelligence is capable of carrying out discipline and pattern recognition tasks, identifying contexts and scenarios, working with some predictive models and making autonomous decisions.

5G mobile cellular network

In telecommunications, 5G is the acronym used to refer to the fifth generation of mobile phone technologies. It is the successor to 4G technology which provides connectivity to most current mobile phones.

The Internet of Things (IoT)

It is a concept that refers to a digital interconnection of everyday objects with the Internet. It is, the internet connection with objects more than with people; it is also known as the Internet of Everything or the Internet of Things.

The drones

Unmanned aerial vehicles (type of aircraft) UAVs, more appropriately RPAS, are commonly known as drones. They are aircraft that fly without a crew; are controlled remotely.

The robotic

Robotics is the branch of mechanical engineering, electronic engineering, and computer science that deals with the design, construction, operation, structure, manufacture, and application of robots.

Blockchain game

A blockchain game; is a video game that includes elements that use blockchain technologies based on cryptography and allows to record transactions or track physical or digital assets with immutable information (secure and traceable) minimizing the risk even in the metaverse with people who do not know each other and the origin of the products.

3d print

It is a very important advance in additive manufacturing technologies where a three-dimensional object is made by superimposing successive layers of material, speeding up the process, reducing waste and production costs, guaranteeing nanometric precision and great versatility.

Virtual reality (VR).

It is an environment of simulated scenes and objects that look real. The most common meaning refers to an environment generated by computer technology, which creates in the user the feeling of being immersed in it.

Genomics

It is a field of molecular biology. A genome (the set of the hereditary material of an organism; the sequence of nucleotides that specify the genetic instructions; it is a complete set of DNA within a single cell of an organism), and as such, genomics focuses on the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genomes.

Synthetic biology is defined as the synthesis of bimolecular or engineering biological systems with novel functions not found in nature.

Advanced materials are found within the entire spectrum of material typologies and are classified as metallic materials, high-performance polymers, advanced ceramic materials, composite materials, and biomaterials, with more reliable and versatile joining methods between materials.

Nanotechnology.

It is the study and manipulation of matter at incredibly small sizes, generally between one and one hundred nanometers. A sheet of paper is about a hundred thousand nanometers thick. Nanotechnology encompasses a very wide range of materials, manufacturing processes, and technologies that are used to create and improve many products that people use every day.

Understanding these technology trends makes it easier to invest time and resources in reducing the risk of external disruption and increasing the chance of business continuity. Therefore, it is vital to know how these new technologies will affect the organization and to act promptly.

 

HOW TO GROW EXPONENTIALLY- STEPS

1. Digitize, is a process by which something real (physical, tangible) is passed to digital data to operate it in a computer to moderate it, modify it, and take advantage of it for purposes other than its original purpose or function. It goes from a continuous reality to a discontinuous one, made up of bits (zeros and ones, of the binary language).

Anything that can be represented by ones and zeros can spread at an impressive speed, and can be reproduced infinite times and shared without any limits.

2. Disappointment in the first year’s results are not achieved, but there are many disappointments for various reasons, generally of human nature.
3. Disruption is about breaking the establishment. Disruptive technology is an innovation that creates a new market and disrupts an existing one.
4. Demonetization elimination of money that was paid for goods; free technology returns.
5. Dematerialization is the disappearance of goods and services; the object ceases to have a form of its own.
6. Democratization all objects become bits, electronically speaking (free for everyone). Technologies created for military or scientific purposes at the state level, for example, become of massive use, for the whole world.

The ability to adapt, typical of intelligent people, serves to take advantage of the great opportunity that presents itself, with greater life expectancy and a lot of stress, adopting healthy lifestyle habits and taking great care of the mind to lengthen its productive period. A lot of flexibility is required, a very open-minded with positive and optimistic thinking, resistance to frustration, maintaining the discipline of study and developing emotional intelligence to the maximum, and learning, at least, another language.

Use the Networking network because the possibilities of accessing new opportunities are multiplied for those who know how to interact, complementing it with forums, blogs, debates, and professional meetings.

Knowing oneself to enhance the creative side because of the ability to generate experiences, provide new points of view; look for different forms of expression and everything that is not likely to be automated to be executed with a robot is and will continue to be highly appreciated.

Cultivate empathy, think about contributing to the quality of life, not making tempting accumulations, seek wisdom and live with a collaborative spirit, working in Holacracy.
