Shownotes

Listen in as my co-author, Dennis Madden and I tackle the essence of adaptability in our high-speed information society. Dennis is the former head of a national association in the automotive business. He has counseled thousands of shop owners and business service people. His advice was brilliant and we had many great ideas that entrepreneurs can benefit from. We dive deep into Alvin Toffler's "Future Shock" and its insights on the rapid evolution of learning, relationships, and decision-making in today's digital whirlwind.

With a nostalgic look back at the 1970s, we contrast the past simplicity with our current complex world, sharing stories and strategies that illuminate the challenge of staying genuine and grounded amidst the ceaseless influx of information.  We dissect the rise of AI, the transformation of journalism, and the art of attention management, delivering actionable advice to help you scale your business without succumbing to the pressures of an expanding workload.

This episode is a treasure trove for small business owners and professionals looking to keep ahead of the relentless technological and societal shifts. Prepare to reframe your approach to professional development and learn how to stand out in a world that's constantly shifting beneath our feet.
