As I began to read chapter eleven of the book "The World is Flat" I felt that what was being said was very true.
As a response to the world becoming more "flat" CEO's and Entrepreneurs were developing new ways to keep their companies under wraps as things were rapidly changing. To businesses and companies alike, this new world was a totally new environment, like a fish out of water. In the end the companies that survive are the ones that are the most prepared for change. They adapt easier and faster.
"Everyone wants economic growth, but nobody wants change. Unfortunately you cannot have one without the other, especially when the playing field shifts as dramatically as it has since the year 2000"

"Just in the last couple of years they had been able to do thing they had never dreamed possible before, or that they were being forced to do things they had never dreamed necessary before"

A good post.
Unfortunately being a "flexible" and "adaptable" corporation can mean shifting jobs from one corner of the globe to another. When you have to change the way you do business you may also have to change the type of people who work for your business. Old skill sets will be fired and new ones hired.
