Today, we still struggle to acknowledge the lurking threat of
acceleration for business.
First: What is this threat?
Everything goes faster, so the number of
changes increases: few changes means low acceleration, many changes means high
acceleration.
Examples? Faster product cycles (fashion, technology, software, car
industry, …), Supply chain (faster
production, faster delivery, shorter order cycles), customers (faster change of
requirements), faster and new competitors, faster legal changes, .. all
increases in speed result in number of changes per month.
