Our Academic Dean, Dr. Bert Wolfs, delivered a speech about the following book:
“The Four Global Forces Breaking All the Trends”
The editors: “The world not only feels different. The data tell us it is different. Based on years of research by the directors of the McKinsey Global Institute, No Ordinary Disruption: The Four Forces Breaking All the Trends is a timely and important analysis of how we need to reset our intuition as a result of four forces colliding and transforming the global economy: the rise of emerging markets, the accelerating impact of technology on the natural forces of market competition, an aging world population, and accelerating flows of trade, capital, people, and data…”

“No one can know the future. But No Ordinary Disruption takes a very good shot. By reading this book you can prepare for what the future will bring. Everyone with responsibility for a part of the future should carefully consider its analysis.”
The major purpose of Dr. Wolfs was to reflect on your business future and career. There was a good discussion with SBS Alumni.
