High tech is of little value without high touch

Anyone who has thought about the future knows about John Naisbitt, his creation of the concept of Megatrends, and his book about one of them - High Tech High Touch, a book which offers perspectives and insights on the interplay between technology and people.

No doubt you have recently received a Christmas or New Year message from a total stranger who happens to be a so-called connection via social media. What we're these people thinking? High tech, no touch.

Technology is an ever increasing number of tools to assist you to live your best life and to do your best work in the service of others. That's it.

The real game being played is human to human. Are you and everyone that you're really connected with winning?

Be remarkable.
