Change is the only constant in life – this proverb from ancient Greek philosophy
couldn’t be more true in our world of today. Over the last twenty something years, we have adapted to a whole lot of change.
Digitalization and globalization have severely transformed and disrupted our world – be it in business, our private life, in politics, science, or art. We work differently, we communicate differently, we learn differently, we shop differently, we build relationships differently, and so forth.
While DLD has followed these developments for ten years now, DLDwomen has looked at them from a female perspective. With our theme “Relevance!”, DLDw14 addressed a key factor for dealing with change. Identifying a skill, a gadget or even a line of thought as relevant to us, is the first step to adopting it. Only if we understand – at least a little – what’s behind the buzz, we can prepare ourselves for the future - Steffi Czerny
