It has become almost cliche to say that the world has changed. The
pace of technology change, the increasing number of new businesses,
and growing global workforce has made the world a more competitive
place. Global economic events have delayed retirement for millions
around the world and thinning margins are making employers more
risk adverse to prevent any disruptions in business continuity.
This major shift in the business world is the recipe for a perfect
storm that could be nothing short of catastrophic for many
organizations, nations, and people. Life Literacy is a cautionary
tale, a forensic journey into what went wrong, a roadmap out of
trouble, and a beacon for what life can be like. It is a timely,
highly practical survival guide that will help the current and
future generations create a better world where opportunities are
abundant, success is achieved, and the pitfalls of predecessors are
avoided. One-sided solutions never solve problems. Life Literacy
provides both viewpoints highlighting the problems that aren't very
far downstream that will cripple companies and communities if left
unaddressed, as well as solutions that show what life could be like
if people learn from one another.
