Today, we are addicted to frightful 5 monoploy
– Google, Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Linkedin &
Microsoft and hence, we are stuck.
We are left with two types of customer
relationships with the above five platforms’
hegemony:
1. Constrained Relationship - No Choice! one
has to continue with the existing relationship
2. Dedicted Relationship - Want to stay in
the relationship – rely on shared values,
benevolence, integrity & competence.
Let us understand the future & prepare. It is
all about preparation. There is still time for it to
prepare & accept what is coming ahead & adapt.
9. Live streaming video based content will gain
momentum
10. Market driven results with a focus on
bringing customer delight
11. Values, Beliefs & Ethos over the bottom line
We must shoulder responsibility to prepare
future generations to meet the challenges,
that we ourselves may have not experienced.
Universities have to be fl exible enough to change
the curriculam & modes of learning to meet the
future. NSDC initiative is a big move to match the
expectation as per future demands.
Time to take a pause, refl ect & move ahead
quickly & swiftly. Let us welcome & embrace the
future. P & M
