the next phase of social business. \u00a0An interesting finding is that the second era (social) and the third era (Collaborative Economy) use the same social technologies but, instead of sharing media and ideas, people are sharing goods and services. \u00a0This is all part of a continuum. \u00a0We need to understand how our careers will progress as the market moves forward with us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">[Social technology enabled the sharing of media and ideas called social business &#8211;The same tools enable sharing of goods and services

opportunities, growth, and even fun. \u00a0It often requires us to step out of our comfort zones and be prepared to adopt new paradigms. \u00a0With that said, here are three insights to remember as we enter into this next phase.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Prepare for the next phase in your career as we shift eras. \u00a0<\/strong>The internet continues to evolve and, with, that our careers do as well. \u00a0The mid 90s saw the blistering heat of the &#8220;dot bomb&#8221; era. \u00a0As the internet became a dominant force, it subsided with the global recession and industry implosion until we saw the second phase emerge. \u00a0We dubbed it &#8220;Web 2,&#8221; where information creation and consumption was democratized by all. \u00a0The next phase uses the same principals of sharing and democratization, but involves goods and services.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Take what you&#8217;ve learned in social business and apply it to the Collaborative Economy. \u00a0<\/strong>If you&#8217;re in social business, you&#8217;re in a good spot. \u00a0The same rules apply about letting go of control, shifting to engage, and connecting with customers. \u00a0Learning to listen for understanding, engaging with customers, developing programs where customers become your advocates, and applying scalability, \u00a0all topics I&#8217;ve researched deeply, will apply to this next phase.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Change is in inevitable. \u00a0Prepare for this next phase now. \u00a0<\/strong>The next phase has already begun. \u00a0Last week&#8217;s LeWeb received international acclaim, and funding to sharing startups is on rise. \u00a0Even cities like Amsterdam are opening up to\u00a0the potential\u00a0of companies like AirBnb. \u00a0Mainstream media is covering this movement. \u00a0We must prepare for the next phases of our careers now. \u00a0We can and will do this together.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I hope this graphic and matrix help to clearly articulate our next phase. \u00a0Save it, share it and activate on it now. \u00a0If you&#8217;d like to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cc.readytalk.com\/cc\/s\/registrations\/new?cid=vbuk6aah2qg0\">join me
