Managing Ourselves
“In a few hundred years, when the history of our time is written
from a long-term perspective, it is likely that the most important
event those historians will see is not technology, not the internet,
not e-commerce.
It is an unprecedented change in the human condition. For the
first time – literally – substantial and rapidly growing numbers of
people have choices.
For the first time they will have to manage themselves. And
society is totally unprepared for it”

• Trial and error (experience)
• Other People (role models)
• Education and formal training.
