Jay Cross is reading the writing on the walls (and we saw a fair bit of that in Aachen). I endorse what he is saying here, but I would add that we have to include the grittier subtext of the same message: that we must reform our (global) system politically, economically and ethically - from a system that rewards dishonesty, exploitation and outright theft, to a system that values individuals and that responds to challenges by empowering people, not discarding them. That's the subject of today's newsletter (sent from a hotel room in Toronto, the result of an airline that has laid off most of its productive staff, and now is completely incapable of dealing with stress, or of meeting anything remotely resembling customer demand).
