[Challenge:Future] PANSOPHY - SYSTEM OF UNIVERSAL KNOWLEDGE
1.
2. The technological revolution has driven the world into a new era. An
era of Augmented Reality which is basically the integration of virtual
world with the real world. After the breakthrough advancement of
integrating Nanotechnology with Quantum Computing, the
technological shift has been so intense that 2012 is now cited as the
early man period of the connected world. Quantum computing has
outscored the limitations of binary computing systems. We don’t
need to carry devices such as Cell Phones, GPS, Tablets, Car Keys or
the most advanced gadgets known ten years back.
3. There is no bifurcation between the standard of security systems as
each system, from a car’s to a bank’s safe, is designed to match your
DNA, fingerprints and voice lock. In this integrated world, you can do
anything to everything just at the power of thought. All that I wish to
see, know, hear appears in front of my eyes.
Its 6 past 10 in the morning and my neurotransmitters have been
programmed to bring my mind to a conscious state from REM. The first
thing that I like to see after waking up is my daily schedule which just
appears in front of my eyes. I can cancel meetings, make appointments
or re-plan my schedule just by thinking or speaking which is
automatically checked for availability and then synchronized &
updated in the schedules of concerned people. As I open my window, I
see everything. Complete available information about every living or
non living entity, from buildings to persons, can be accessed. The
sunrise looks really beautiful today and I wish to share it with my
friends. I just make a video with the frame defined by my hands and
share it with Joe and Will enclosed with a caption that I had in mind.
Before I leave for work, I love to see my MBA Degree from Harvard
4. Business School which reminds me of the effort I have put up in
life and motivates me to achieve more everyday.
I am an Entrepreneur, the founder and CEO of Hot Board. The
current market capitalization value of the company is €4.7
Billion and employs 890 people globally. The company was
launched on 1st December, 2018 just after I completed my MBA.
The world today is governed by two types of business entities.
One, the big players and second, the Entrepreneurs. About 4%
of Entrepreneurs pave their way towards becoming big players
and the rest just play. Though my company has offices all over
the globe but our system allows us to work mobile, be it at a
skyscraper or a beach. Our company tailors real time relevant
information to its users based on their up-to date behavior
patterns and factors like nature of work, location, interests,
social group, travel, education, age, culture, etc. In a typical
organization today, employees are provided with daily targets
and all that is expected of them is to achieve them.
5. Senior management can work from anywhere fulfilling their
desired jobs. Promotions are based on the rate at which targets
are achieved and the ones who go beyond them take the leap.
All sorts of modern facilities from gaming to swimming are
available for access to the employees. Most companies
emphasize on the importance of spending 20% time on
exploring individual interests which allows employees to
perform better. Youth prefer startups over huge companies for
they offer seniority, flexibility and curiously challenging work
with great stock options and salaries. Enterprises are solely
focusing on their services/products and all other processes are
outsourced to other Enterprises. Companies hire employees all
over the globe without limitations of a huge infrastructure
requirement everywhere. Service providers will generate much
higher demand than manufacturers as it’s a world so complex
that services are the only way to filter things out.
6. Today, the most difficult part of a business is to attract and
retain the best minds of the world, who not only care about
their salaries or working hours, but also about the freedom to
choose their work place, their boss, undertake projects born in
their minds, rate of promotion based on results apart from stock
options and various trips around the solar system. Every
company will have their own Venture Capital funds only open to
their employees. These funds are to promote entrepreneurship
and innovation within the company. These new startups run by
the former company employees will be partially owned by the
company and the resources shared among the two. The best
brains today understand their own potential and are familiar
with the huge pool of options available to them. The most
competitive candidates are hired by use of platforms like
Twitter, Facebook and social gaming designed to test them to
the job specific skills.
7. My dream job is to be an Entrepreneur, something that I have
envisioned for me since I was 16. This ideology was born as a
result of excessive reading about people from different
spheres of life. An entrepreneur is simply a person who
identifies an un-served need, a new market, generates a
feasible working model to satisfy the need and with his skills
and knowledge brings the idea to life. To be able to explore
this complete package within ourselves, the approach to
education will be very different. As many of the top B-schools
have identified after the global financial meltdown, the road
to success is defined by the soft skills whereas the hard skills
only tend to be a prerequisite for consideration of the job.
Soft skills are the ones like Character, Innovation, Leadership,
Improvisation, Creativity & Change Management. As vague as
8. these may sound, even the most skilled fail when self-esteem or
ego, a part of the character, comes to play while making
important decisions. In this truly global world, change is
happening at every moment and to be the best in the race we
need to learn to improvise.
Virtual markets are the biggest networks to reach out to any and
every potential customer. Innovation & Creativity play out to be
some of the most important factors to attract new potential
consumers. B-Schools are more interested in your creative efforts
and achievements than your academic records. Passionate
curiosity is now taken as an important factor for promotion. Your
socializing regime and diverse peer group are governing factors
of how well you understand the global needs rather than a very
region specific approach. Hard skills like Market Strategy,
Finance Management, Future Projection, Marketing and Risk
Management are.
9. important for my job and vary with individuals depending on the
nature of their jobs. The case method as taught in HBS is a very
important tool as it lets us role play the scenario very closely and
examine the problems and achievements that will tentatively
follow. This leads to better execution and assessment of the
change or model to be implemented. Knowledge of not only
your own segment of business but at least a basic know how of
how other segments are operating and generating businesses
around you. Half the operations are now outsources to
companies in some other region of the world and we should be
well familiar with the ones we collaborate. This is a global
economy which is lead by those having information which is the
single key most valuable asset for any enterprise. The one, who
understands its competitors thoroughly not only based
regionally but globally and keeps an edge from them ,will
eventually be the winner.
10. These traits of business leaders are not just a part of curriculum
in B-Schools but are mandatory to be taught in every type of
education. To support these future organizations of 2022,
students will be taught in close collaboration with real
organizations where they will be assigned to major projects.
These projects are meant to learn and establish the most
desired soft skills, among others. Teaching methods similar to
the HBS Case Method are now followed in every top university
which makes the candidates highly competitive. Running a test
startup at the university level is highly advisable and mandatory
in some universities. These startups may take the shape of
some of the most grown organizations of the globe or may die
teaching the most important lessons before taking the final leap
into the highly competitive professional world. Educators
believe that early failures can be highly successful in teaching
important ,preparing the candidates for the worst.
