This past weekend I had an extended period of re-reading about the effects of disruption that seems to be occurring across all points of business, our politics, our governments, it seems across our lives.

In a world where exponential change and digital disruptions abound, you simply cannot rest on your laurels and merely rely on what you’ve already built. Instinctually for many, we choose to play it safe and protect and defend the status quo with agility. From there, it’s just collecting money and living a good life.

Incremental innovation will become a consistent focus, while transformative and disruptive innovation will be sporadic at best. To "move the needle" companies need an occasional transformative or disruptive innovation. I think there will remain a focus on innovation, but with different agendas and motives.
