My World Economic Forum is my notes from read @wef tweet. Make conclusion for myself or anothers (maybe).
1.
Diplomat
Whoever lands the top
job at the UN will be greeted on their first day by a full in-tray...
brutal conflicts,
violent extremism,
climate change,
ongoing discrimination against women and girls,
some 700 million people still living in extreme
poverty and
a record number of displaced people around the
world.
There are also 17 Sustainable Development Goals to
achieve by 2030.
2.
Optogenetics
The top 10 technologies
to make this year’s list are:
1. Nanosensors and the Internet of Nanothings
2. Next Generation Batteries
3. The Blockchain
4. 2D Materials
5. Autonomous Vehicles
6. Organs-on-chips
7. Perovskite Solar Cells
8. Open AI Ecosystem
9. Optogenetics
10. Systems Metabolic Engineering
3.
Protein & Running
The Cell Metabolism study examined Cathepsin B
(CTSB) protein
secretion during running.
By assisting in the expression of BDNF, this
protein had beneficial effects on cognition, specifically enhanced adult brain
cell growth in the hippocampus and spatial memory function.
4.
Procrastinate
“You’re actually doing the smartest and most
productive thing in the world if you waste
time,” Maria Konnikova said last week in a workshop about the psychology of
creativity at Adobe’s 99U conference in New York City.
5.
Woman and Computer
Computer programming is a field dominated by men,
right?
Well, in terms of sheer numbers that’s true. Data
from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that 73% of US computer science
workers are male coders. Across technology generally, women
are underrepresented.
6.
About CEO
According to a new study led by Steven N. Kaplan
at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and Morten Sorensen at
Copenhagen Business School, there are four key characteristics that can predict
whether you'll become a CEO:
general ability,
execution skills,
charisma, and
strategic skills.
7.
Gedankenexperiments
One of Einstein's most defining qualities was his
remarkable ability to conceptualize complex scientific ideas by imagining
real-life scenarios. He called these scenarios Gedankenexperiments,
which is German for thought experiments.
The fact that these two effects would produce the
same results led Einstein to the conclusion that there is no difference between
gravity and acceleration — they are the same thing.
8.
Hesitation
Economic slowdowns
can often be characterized as periods of hesitation. Consumers hesitate to buy
a new house or car, thinking that the old house or car will do just fine for a
while longer. Managers hesitate to expand their workforce, buy a new office
building, or build a new factory, waiting for news that will make them stop
worrying about committing to new ideas. Viewed from this perspective, how
worried should we be about the effects of hesitation today?
Loss of economic “confidence” is one possible
cause. Published confidence indices, available since the 1950s, are based on
polls that ask consumers or businesspeople about their perceptions of business
activity and expectations of future income and employment.
9.
Millennials
Education is the bedrock for thinking in an
organized way about creativity. However, articulating the problem is half the
solution. New and innovative ways of doing things can come from unexpected
sources, not least the current generation of millennials.
The core medium for education in the workplace is
story-telling, a time-tested way of passing the culture of a company on to
future generations.
I sit on several executive committees where many
old ideas are constantly recycled and there are few young people with fresh
ideas in the room. The danger here is the “dinosaur effect”. We keep listening
to the same cassette with our best songs, while losing touch with new music and
new genres. In the end, the company perishes from lack of innovation.
10.
Teenager Problem
The answer, in large part, lies in how we empower
the girls of today – in particular the more than 325 million girls aged 10 to 19 across our region.
