Disruption Is Headed Your Way | Uphoff on Industry

The Big Themes:
• A fascinating cultural shift: The millennial generation’s increasing dissatisfaction with “knowledge work” and the increasing interest in wanting to make things.
• The cultural legacies of the US manufacturing industry: This is why so many industries are disrupted by outsiders.
• Technology continues to advance dramatically: It’s time to transform and upgrade how technology is positioned, explained, and sold.
• Many scheduled office re-openings have been pushed back: We’re seeing some companies announce full remote plans in perpetuity. What will this push-back do to the tentative office re-opening plans?

The Big Quotes:
“I think I shared with you in New York City that there's over 8,000 small manufacturers that are generating over $7 billion a year in revenue in New York City.”

“We hit a really interesting inflection point where the number of millennial managers were in the workforce and at the same size as the Baby Boom managers.”
