Title
Living and working in a networked world: Ten trends
Abstract
When faced with major changes in the coordinates defining the world in which they live and work, people are often wary and full of reservations - initially, at least. For this reason, it is important not simply to take people on a journey into the future, but to give them the opportunity to pick the itinerary and the speed at which they proceed from one milestone to the next. This report highlights ten key trends relating to the knowledge society, demographic developments, and the increasing degree of flexibilization in our networked world - trends with a crucial influence on how we will live and work tomorrow.
