Swim upstream! Today’s X-Men stick two fingers up at industrial age karma, they take none of that by-gone era’s baggage, they evolve fast by stripping non-value out of the equation and they do it one baby step at a time, but many baby steps every day. Game changers operate calmly at the speed of light. Zen and the Art of Digital Age Mastery? Do they give a hoot about Annual budgets? Annual plans? Hefty Job Descriptions? Ivory Towers? Red Brick CVs? Job Titles? 5 year ROIs? 3 year ROIs? 1 year ROIs!!! NO THEY DO NOT! There’s no time for that BS, they are laser focused on failing fast, learning fast, evolving fast. They are forever creating customers through rapid prototyping, pivoting, rapid fluid skills development, adaptive modeling, rapid ROIs. Build, Measure, Learn…. Build, Measure, Learn…. Build, Measure, Learn….

He saw a lot in his lifetime...a long time ago.
