Disruption, C-Suite & The Internet of Things

disruptive technologies

A 3D printer can build a 400-square-foot house in a day. A robotic barista at a café can serve 120 cups of coffee per hour, and embedded sensors are helping government agencies prevent motor vehicle accidents on crowded roadways.

Welcome to The World of Disruptive Technology

Once considered too experimental, disruption tools now impact everyone in the organization from C-suite to project leaders. Executives are recognizing the power of these technologies to improve strategy and deliver a compelling competitive edge.

The key drivers for adopting disruptive technology include the ability to innovate, revenue growth and profitability, according to a Forbes Insights and PMI survey of 537 executives.

Cloud solutions are among the most popular disruptive technologies in the Forbes Insights survey. Cloud was closely followed by IoT (Internet of Things), artificial intelligence and blockchain.

Consider The New IoT Mousetrap

A tiny rodent no longer stands a chance against today’s pest control technician who used to slack off on tending to his traps.

German multinational company Bayer has almost replaced the technician with its Rodent Monitoring System (RMS), a wireless network of sensory devices that attach to a plant’s existing mousetraps.

When an RMS device captures a rodent, it automatically alerts a pest control technician via text or email, enabling a fast and efficient response. Mousetraps are now The Internet of Things devices!

“Disruption is real, and it’s impacting even the largest companies that used to be the most stable in the world. Today, there are almost no barriers to entry in any industry. Anyone can be a competitor.”
