Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, actually I had the pleasure of knowing Peter Drucker here in California. He was a big believer in the human capital - so had an excellent understanding of the proper use of human intelligence!
Information is what technology is - the difference is that now we will build information with humans - as opposed to replacing them with automation - ie. Thomas Davenport - MIT, etc.
That's great new for our future!
Thanks for quotes - great people.

..and one final "addendum"--to further underscore what I noted in our discourse today:

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
What Peter Drucker noted is kind of timely here--it is up to us :)
We can say with certainty - or 90% probability - that the new industries that are about to be born will have nothing to do with information. Peter Drucker Read more at: https://www.brainyquote.com/search_results.html?q=drucker

@mpouraryan, as I stated I do NOT see medicine as becoming a Uber or Robotic model, only applying technology from skilled medical providers - thank goodness!

Thanks for your thoughts. I leave you all w/this (especially on this Presidents' Day 2017):

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
@mpouraryan, no one can predict the future, but it will be framed by the decisions we are all making today. If we come up with good examples, that will be part of the answer - so that is the benefit of the early disrupters and the effective solutions they are providing in better services, etc.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
No Doubt--the transformation we're witness to is welcome indeed. As I have noted in our deliberations, as long as we make sure that we maintain the control and harness it for the betterment of all.

Re: Disruption = "Transformation"
It will be quite a while before Medicine becomes "uberized" (to borrow a thought from the UK Shadow Chancellor). As I noted, though, we have to be prepared to deal with the aftermath of automation.
