SMART CITIES REPRESENT THE BEST OF EVERYTHING

The best of The Digital Age ideas, systems, processes, technologies, infrastructures, ecosystems …

New ways of thinking, working, collaborating,

communicating, analyzing, deciding, solving,

implementing … EVOLVING!

New ways of living and enjoying life

New ways of travelling, commuting, telecommuting …

New ways of learning and teaching

New ways of raising families …

A NEW WORLD IS EMERGING ➔A NEW RENAISSANCE

❑ Air Travel ➔ Reduced> Teleconferencing, telecommuting, teleworking … ➔Fewer Airplanes ➔ No new terminals needed ➔ fewer pilots and stewards

❑ Hoteling ➔ Reduced>Airbnb ➔ No new hotels needed ➔ less hotel employees

❑ Rerailing ➔ Online Retailing ➔ Fewer new stores; fewer Malls; fewer retailers ➔ less clerks and support staff

❑ Restaurants and Entertainment ➔ Increased

❑ Manufacturing ➔ Reduced> 3D and 4D Printing to 3rd Parties, sentient robots, AI, Machine Learning … ➔ Self-Manufacturing for many items ➔ less workers

❑ Logistics & Transportation ➔ Reduced> 3D and 4D Printing ➔ Fewer warehouses and trucks ➔ less truck drivers and support staff

A NEW WORLD IS EMERGING ➔A NEW RENAISSANCE

❑ Healthcare ➔ Reduced ➔ Telehealth, Telemedicine, Telecare ➔ You are the CEO of your own health ➔ Fewer hospitals and ERs ➔ fewer doctors and nurses

❑ Education➔ Online Education ➔ fewer new buildings, fewer institutions ➔ self-education and advancement ➔ fewer years of schooling (faster rates of graduation) ➔ fewer teachers and professors

❑ Government ➔ Participatory Democracy ➔ less reliance on government to make all the right decisions and implementations, fewer government agencies, less bureaucracy ➔ less government employees

MAJOR BENEFITS TO SOCIETY

❑ Less vehicles on the road ➔ less air pollution, less dependence on fossil fuels, less traffic congestions, less frustrations and road rage incidents

❑ Less reliance on government and institutions(incl. VCs, Banks, Research Labs …)

❑ Less Intermediaries (brokers, real estate agencies, job agencies, wholesalers, distributors, publishers, entertainment and talent agencies …)

❑ Less reliance on consultants (help is on the internet)

❑ More innovation, shorter times for product and service introduction

❑ Openness of value chains, openness of information and knowledge, openness to dealings and revenue streams (blockchain) …

OTHER BENEFITS

❑ Fewer car accidents

❑ Fewer crimes

❑ Fewer school shootings

❑ Less bullying and sexual harassment

THE DOWNSIDE

❑ Higher rates of mental illnesses

❑ Increased anti-social behaviors

❑ Higher unemployment rates

❑ The gap between the “Haves” and “Have-nots” will increase

THE SIX DS

1. Digitization

2. Deceptive Growth

3. Disruptive Growth

4. Dematerialization

5. Demonetization

6. Democratization

Digitalization: Once you digitize a product or service (photography, finance, manufacturing, biology, etc...) into 1s and 0s, that product or service becomes an information-based technology and it hops on an exponential growth curve. Something digitized can be replicated and transmitted for a near-zero marginal cost.

Deceptive Growth: During the early days of exponential growth, the doubling of small numbers seem deceptively flat. Take for example the first Kodak Digital Camera that produced 0.01 Megapixel images. As it grew from 0.01, to 0.02, 0.04, 0.08... they all seem like zero. Same w/Microchips and Moore’s Law.

Disruptive Growth: What follows early deceptive growth is disruption. 30 doublings later something has grown 1 billion-fold. That first 0.01-megapixel Kodak camera is now generating a 10-megapixel image. The result of which is the complete dematerialization and demonetization of film photography.

Dematerialization: Products and services are becoming bits. I no longer have a clunky GPS on the dashboard of my car, today its an APP on my phone. Think about all the 1980s or '90s technology that now comes free on your cellphone: GPS, two-way video conferencing, HD video, HD photography, radio, books, records, maps, weather and much more. In Abundance I did a quick calculation to show that today’s smart phone comes with over a million dollars’ worth of technologies from the 1980s.

Demonetization: Once a product/service has become dematerialized into bits, its cost of replication and transmission is near zero and ultimately leads to their eventual demonetization. As an example, digital photography has totally demonetized the field.

Democratization: As products and services dematerialize and demonetize, they become available to billions of users across the planet. Today there are 3 billion people connected on planet Earth. By 2025 that will increase to 8 billion connected individuals. Create a digital banking or insurance product and you have the opportunity to market it across the globe.

SMART GOVERNMENT

Smart Governments know and do all they can to:Spur Growth (Smart Economic Development)

Attract the Best Brains

Enhance and add the right “Magnets” that attract the best brains (Smart Citizens)

Apply the best concepts for Urban Planning

Foster, and advance a Culture of Innovation

PARTICIPATORY DEMOCRACY

PARTICIPATORY DEMOCRACY IS A MANIFESTATION OF SERVANT LEADERSHIP

Good government officials want to

involve people, listen to their voices,

empower them, help them, take their

advice, and act on that advice!

Servant Leaders serve others!

KEY REALIZATION

The New Normal (post COVID-19) work environment) will require Managers and Leaders to become great Servant Leaders
