The First 100 Days

I. Globalization Headwinds
2016
"We are living through one of the greatest inflection points in
history...The three largest forces on the planet - technology,
globalization, and climate change - are all accelerating at
once. As a result, so many aspects of our societies, workplaces,
and geopolitics are being reshaped and need to be reimagined."
"There is a mismatch between the change in the pace of change
and our ability to develop the learning systems, training systems,
management systems, social safety nets, and government
regulations that would enable citizens to get the most out of these
accelerations and cushion their worst impacts. This mismatch is
at the center of much of the turmoil roiling politics and society in
both developed and developing countries today. It now
constitutes probably the most important governance challenge
across the globe."
