Wrong.  Two epic issues are hanging out just around the corner that could wreak even more havoc in all of our lives.

  1. There are new, more dangerous Covid variants that are emerging. If any one of them replaces the current dominant Delta mutation, we will face new, more daunting public health challenges. This is a possibility. This is a possibility, so let’s focus on what is inevitable.
  2. The pace of disruption in technology and innovation is accelerating.  These changes will impact many of our existing business models and jobs, from manufacturing to white-collar positions. 

Best advice:  Do not turn off the strategic networking switch.  Keep a LinkedIn presence and stay in touch with your networking groups.  Please.

By the way, congratulations on your new job.
