New Business Environment. New MBA.

Young people today are frequently criticized as being illiterate because they can’t sit still long enough to read or write a 40 page paper. Yet this simplistic observation doesn’t hold up upon closer examination. Web browsing, email, chat, text messages, and many video games all depend on text. We are reading and writing more than ever, and young people are at the front of this trend. It’s just that the content read and produced is occurring asynchronously, and in multiple streams. The traditional book, one page at a time, one page after another, endlessly, doesn’t fit with today’s learner.
