I’m sitting in Boston right now at the CERES conference listening to Jeremy Rifkin speak about his new book, The Third Industrial Revolution.  Extremely compelling.  Read it.

The 2nd Industrial Paradigm: top-down, centralized, proprietary, closed, private, elite.  Fueled by hazardous, large-scale energy technologies (oil, coal, gas, uranium).  A very short and dangerous civilization!

The 3rd Industrial Paradigm: lateral, distributed, open, collaborative, shared, accessible.  Energy+Communication+Economy.  Post-carbon.  Unstoppable.

You know the difference when you see it, don’t you?

This applies to MBA education as much as anything else.

OccupyMBA!
