Description
Ever since the first simple machines were invented and used to increase the speed and efficiency of human effort, technology has changed our world forever. Yet in many ways the disruption to how we live our lives, do our jobs, communicate, and engage in relationships has only just begun.
Automation is changing the workplace, and jobs once done by direct human effort are increasingly being replaced by machines.
These changes also disrupt and require changes to the education system. The result is that advanced education is increasingly a prerequisite for even entry-level jobs. Businesses increasingly require workers to be educated in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (often referred to as STEM).
The benefits of such an education however are in improved levels of job placement, with many additional paths for career advancement.
Entrepreneurship represents a path to success for many people. This requires recognizing and taking advantage of opportunities.
The common denominator for success in a disruptive world is the development of good decision-making skills. “Decision-Making in a Disruptive Reordering” provides a practical blueprint to the decision making process, and gives you clear steps for making better, more productive, and more effective decisions in your own life and profession.

Chris Nelson-Jeffers –
It is said that “Change is the only constant in life”. Or as the Greek philosopher Heraclutus put it, “No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river, and he is not the same man.”
In this facinating book, Wayne Staley outlines the challenges facing today’s Millennial generation – far-reaching social, economic, and political changes, driven by accelerating technological advances that are disrupting the very fabric and understanding of human social interaction and work.
Key to successfully navigating this changing landscape requires a personal ability to analyze a situation, make good decisions, and then take positive entrepreneurial action based on those decisions.
In layman’s terms, Wayne lays out a simple process for making good decisions, both in one’s own personal life, and in the context of work teams.
This book is a great overview and summary of a process that is often made overly-complex, and provides a good foundation for anyone seeking to explore the subject further and develop their own decision-making skills.
