"Summary": "<p> That article is a masterclass in disruption. The carriage-to-car transition is a rich metaphor for whats happening today—but its far from unique. History is full of examples where incumbents were disintermediated by new technologies and nimble upstarts: Blockbuster → Netflix, Kodak → Digital photography, Nokia/BlackBerry → Apple & Android, Yahoo → Google, Intel → NVIDIA, Department stores → Amazon, Bookstores → eBooks & eCommerce, Taxis → Uber & Lyft. I could go on and on. The lesson? If youre holding onto legacy skills and institutional knowledge that served you well over the past decade—and youre part of a legacy brand more than a few years old—you may be the walking dead and not know it. Were living in a precarious moment. AI, political and geopolitical realignment, and climate pressures are supercharging disruptive technologies and business models—making traditional expertise and structures vulnerable to sudden collapse. The upside? We have all this history to learn from. The question is: will we? Unfortunately, most wont. Human nature being what it is, we tend to ignore the past and repeat its mistakes—forgetting that none of this is new. Its all happened before. As a simple exercise, I had AI take my Playbook Of The Future tool for consumer brands, and create 2 columns: if you know and do the left, you are ripe for disruption; if you know, do or at least working on the right, you are future-proofing yourself and will the disruptor. Which column do you land?
