„Der Elefant im Raum bleibt die Energiefrage. Solange wir fossile Energieträger weiter verbrennen. bringen auch die besten Ideen keine Linderung.  Ohne einen Umstieg auf eine andere Energiegewinnung wird das Klima nicht zu retten sein. Viele andere Länder haben das längst begriffen. Selbst in China gibt es einen Schwenk hin zu erneuerbaren Energieträgern.“

"Oh, the places he'll go, the things he'll see!"

I became a granddad yesterday for the first time. Welcome Mason!

For the first time, we are routinely seeing five generations simultaneously active in society. This creates unprecedented challenges and opportunities for wealth transfer, housing, care systems, and intergenerational business models. It's a pretty significant trend, and one often not covered. If you'd like, you can dig it in more depth in my report, The Five-Generation Society: Navigating the Global Challenges and Opportunities of Intergenerational Expansion (2025-2035). Here's the PDF.

We are, globally, in the midst of an unprecedented demographic shift. For the first time in human history, five distinct generations are simultaneously active in society at scale, creating a demographic phenomenon that is fundamentally reshaping wealth transfer, housing, care systems, and business models worldwide.

The simple fact is, while wonderfully inspiring, the trend presents some pretty significant systemic challenges.

Existing models for wealth transfer, housing, and care are inadequate for supporting a larger, older population while meeting the needs of younger people, creating potential for social friction and conflict over resources. It' an extraordinary opportunity, though, in that this demographic shift is fueling a multi-trillion-dollar "Longevity Economy" and a booming "AgeTech" market projected to reach $120 billion by 2030, precipitating the largest intergenerational wealth transfer in history.

There are some pretty simple demographic and scientific trends at work here!

"Digital natives aren't just changing the workplace-they're accelerating humanity's boldest innovations while older resistance fades away." - Futurist Jim Carroll

(Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series on 30 Megatrends, which he first outlined in his book Dancing in the Rain: How Bold Leaders Grow Stronger in Stormy Times. The trends were shared in the book as a way of demonstrating that, despite any period of economic volatility, there is always long-term opportunity to be found.

As digital natives – kids who have never known a world without technology, the Internet, and social media – become the majority workforce and leadership cohort, we are seeing accelerated acceptance of new paradigms that would have faced resistance from previous generations. Boomers, with their change-resistant attitudes, no longer hold back the future.

"They're not like us." That's the common refrain from most baby boomers and many senior executives today. And that much is true. I've been cognizant of this for a long, long time, often noting that I used to run 'change management workshops.' That is, until a young person came up to me about 20 years ago and said, 'Why can't you people just change already?"

I write the entire theme of generational transformation as one of THE major trends in my book Surviving the Information Age, noting the breadth and scope of what might happen once the first change-embracing generation took over the world. We're smack dab in the middle of that trend now - but in fact, we've only just begun to see its implications. With that in mind, I bring you The Great Generational Transformation: How Digital Natives are Reshaping the Global Economy (2025-2035). 

What's up? The decade between 2025 and 2035 will mark a fundamental and irreversible transfer of economic, cultural, and operational power within the global workforce. The boomers, with their resistance to change ingrained in many of their mindsets till the end, are finally leaving the workforce, and you people are taking over. And as these digital natives—Millennials and Generation Z—transition from workforce participants to the leadership cohort, they are driving a great rebalancing that will restructure the global economy in massive ways!

This transformation, occurring simultaneously with the adoption of artificial intelligence, mounting climate pressures, and geopolitical realignments, creates a perfect storm of change that demands immediate strategic response from global organizations.

It's a perfect storm of change:

Megatrend **#22** - Cross-Disciplinary Specialists: "The greatest competitive advantage isn't knowing everything - it's knowing how to learn anything."- Futurist Jim Carroll

The highest career value is increasingly found at the intersection of previously distinct careers, knowledge, and skill sets. Hybrid expertise that combines technical, creative, and human skills will continue to command a significant premium in the talent marketplace. No one can know everything there is to know, but knowing how to get that knowledge is a key success factor!

The future is hybrid! You don't need to know much anymore - you just need to know how to know it! Not only that, but you need to know how to know many different things.

Makes sense? Let's dig into the trend of the 'hybrid workforce.'

Futurist Jim Carroll explored the early signs of this trend in multiple chapters in his 1997 book, Surviving the Information Age.

Megatrend **#21** - Career Obsolesence and Creation: "As technology redefines work, our most valuable skill becomes our uniquely human ability to learn, adapt, and create."- Futurist Jim Carroll

We are witnessing the simultaneous elimination of traditional roles and the emergence of entirely new professions. Organizations that can navigate this transition, focusing on re-skilling existing talent while attracting new capabilities, will have extraordinary advantages. The trend is being accelerated to a ridiculous speed as the impact of AI takes hold.

It's "The Great Rebalancing" of the global workforce, and here's the full PDF report.

pdf.jimcarroll.com/Megatrend21

We all know that jobs and careers are changing, but do we know how much? And how fast?

Hint: It's bigger than you think, and will happen faster than you are prepared for.

We've all become familiar with this trend, but suddenly, with the arrival and acceleration of AI, the speed of the change is now picking up the pace. What we thought might have been decades away - the disappearance of many careers and the rapid emergence of new careers - will now take years rather than decades. What's happening is this: there are now several simultaneous, accelerating trends at work involving demographics and technology:

- a demographic crisis in developed nations (a shrinking workforce)
- this creates a powerful incentive for technological adoption
- labor shortages are counteracted by AI productivity gains
- resulting in a desire or need to accelerate AI adoption to maintain economic viability
- which fundamentally challenges society to reskill the human workforce to effectively collaborate with machines!

How big a trend is this? Let's quantify the crunch. There are a tremendous number of studies and reports, but one rough estimate suggests that between 2025 and 2030, we will see:

- 170 million new jobs created globally
- 92 million existing roles displaced
- That's a net increase of 78 million jobs (a 7% expansion)
- This "labor-market churn" equals 22% of today's employment
- This means that early 1 in 4 existing jobs will be part of this massive rebalancing!

So what do you do?

Buckle up! Get involved! Keep learning!

„Der Klimawandel stelle eine "universelle und ernstzunehmende Bedrohung" für die Weltgemeinschaft dar. Daraus ergebe sich eine völkerrechtliche Verpflichtung der Staaten, Maßnahmen zu ergreifen, um dessen Voranschreiten einzudämmen.“

Product lifecycles have collapsed as things become 'things from the olden days' faster. It is not just that business models that once lasted decades now face obsolescence in years or even months. The ability to continuously reinvent your value proposition is no longer optional; it is survival.

Let's call it "The End of Enduring Advantage." In the future, pretty much every organization is going to have to navigate the era of compressed innovation, mimicking what leading-edge organizations are already doing today.

Here's what's up: the fundamental rhythm of economic change has quickened to a pace that invalidates long-held strategic assumptions. The shift from stable, defensible market positions to a state of perpetual flux is not merely an increase in speed but a change in the very nature of competition.

Products used to last months, years, and even decades before they were obsolete - today, it might be mere months or even days.

Behind this trend is the age-old reality that eventually, every product and service runs its course - its life cycle comes to an end. Joseph Schumpeter's concept of "creative destruction" described the "process of industrial mutation that incessantly revolutionizes the economic structure from within, incessantly destroying the old one, incessantly creating a new one." Historically, this was envisioned as a powerful but periodic 'gale' that would sweep through the economy over decades.

Companies lasted a long time, as did the products they brought to market.

That's no longer the case. Today, this periodic gale has transformed into a perpetual, high-velocity hurricane.

The impact? The actual average lifespan of a company has decreased rather dramatically in the last few decades.
