A 4 and ½ Minute Primer on the Future (Heads-up, it’s already here.)
As the late, great Gilda Radner might have said as Emily Litella (I know I’m skewing way old here), “What’s all this I hear about social media?”

OK, all you leaders out there, what are the things in this video that make you go hmmm? What are the things that make you say, “Holy crikes, I better get busy.”? What are you changing? What are you going to change?
It better be something because the future is already here.
