Societal Collapse and Myopic Views

Societal collapse is identified as a pressing issue, particularly in the context of the technology sector, where many professionals hold an overly narrow perspective of global challenges. This limited outlook not only exacerbates existing problems but also overlooks significant opportunities for growth and innovation. The discussion highlights various contributing factors to societal collapse, including climate change, political instability, and social unrest, suggesting that awareness of these issues is crucial for product managers. By acknowledging the broader context and potential implications of their work, product managers can harness their skills to foster resilience and adapt strategically to an evolving landscape.
