How humans take care of concerns is shifting because of marketplace drifts in the domains of technology, demographics, culture, politics, and economics. Radically.
Technology is shifting how humans care for their body.
Remote health care, software applications, wearables, and data analytics offer new and convenient ways to care for themselves - if they know how. Not everyone possesses the appropriate knowledge to utilize these tools therefore shifting their obligation to do so, or they suffer the consequences.
Economics is shifting how business professionals earn a living.
No longer are gold plated pensions available after years of service to a single, or a few, organizations. Now, with massive money printing, inflation, rising expenses, and questionable demand - producing revenues, income, and protecting assets has shifted the responsibility to the individual. Once again, this is incredibly enabling for those who obligate to learn how to design new offers in this environment while simultaneously producing new threats for those who decline.
Shifts and new offers in the domains of community, networking, and membership has radically changed over the past decade and has accelerated in the remote work environment.
The days of networking for business at the local chamber has been replaced with digital advertising, online communities, and new technology driven membership opportunities. This is incredibly empowering for those who embrace these new spaces of possibilities while closing down options for business professionals who disregard or ignore these shifts.
The pattern here is, and to be cliche: when one door closes, another opens.
