Change distorts our perceptions of life and work. Change is distressing. Change can distort the reality – the ‘is’ of what is happening around us. We then react according to our perceptions of the ‘is’ which if distorted by old assumptions or rules, can affect how we deal with our life/work/career.
Paradigms are critical to us because they not only affect how we perceive the world but also foretell how we react to it and predict what’s about to happen. Competitiveness and Information Technology are today’s paradigm busters.
