A business's ability to survive and thrive depends
on its ability to align itself with the time in which it
operates.

Today, in the time of the information revolution,
business leaders need to consider different approaches and ways of
thinking.

Many authors, theorists and futurists allude to the information
revolution or one of its competing terms. Whatever you call it, the
primary feature of the information revolution is the growing
economic, social and technological role of information.
The increasing availability and use of internet-connected
devices has seen us 'information-enable' every aspect of
the world within the 'internet of things'.
