Knowmad Society JOHN W . MORAVEC Knowmad Society Knowmad Knowmad Society explores the future of learning, work, and how we relate with each other in a world driven by accelerating change, value networks, and the rise of knowmads. Knowmads are nomadic knowledge workers: Creative, imaginative, and innovative people who can work with almost anybody, anytime, and anywhere. The jobs associated with 21st century knowledge and innovation workers have become much less specific concerning task and place, but require more value-generative applications of what they know. The ofce as we know it is gone. Schools and other learning spaces will follow next. In this book, nine authors from three continents, ranging from academics to business leaders, share their visions JOHN W. MORAVEC JOHN W. for the future of learning and work. Educational and organizational implications are uncovered, experiences are shared, and the contributors explore what it’s going to take for individuals, organizations, and nations to succeed in Knowmad Society.

It is a product of the changes in a world driven by exponential accelerating technological and social change, globalization, and a push for more creative and context-driven innovations. It is both exciting and frightening. It presents us with new opportunities, challenges, and responsibilities. And, we recognize that in a world of accelerating change, the future is uncertain. This prompts a key question: In a world consumed with uncertainty, how can we ensure the success of ourselves as individuals, our communities, and the planet? This book explores the future of learning, work, and how we relate with each other in this emerging paradigm. In a blog post at Education Futures, I defined a knowmad as: […] a nomadic knowledge worker –that is, a creative, imaginative, and innovative person who can work with almost anybody, anytime, and anywhere. Industrial society is giving way to knowledge and innovation work. Whereas industrialization required people to settle in one place to perform a very specific role or function, the jobs associated with knowledge and information workers have become much less specific concerning task and place. Moreover, technologies allow for these new paradigm workers to work within broader options of space, including “real,” virtual, or blended. Knowmads can instantly reconfigure and recontextualize their work environments, and greater mobility is creating new opportunities. (Moravec, 2008) 19 Introduction to Knowmad Society In other words, knowmads are extensions of Peter Drucker’s (1992) knowledge workers concept, embracing the convergence of accelerating technological change and globalization. In particular, the use of advanced information and communications technologies enable knowmads to work beyond pre-19th century notions of nation states, corporate identity, and community identity. For some, knowmadism is realized through leveraging social media (i.e., Twitter or blogs) that add an additional layer of social and/or professional activities that defy the confinement to particular geographies and operational rules they may have been restricted to as recently as 10 years ago. For others, knowmads engage in work that is transnational, transcultural, and post-organizational in scope. And, a few select others may develop and apply such individual expertise that their work in new context creation enables them to be considered postnational and postcultural actors in their own right. Knowmads are valued for the personal knowledge that they possess, and this knowledge gives them a competitive advantage. Knowmads are also responsible for designing their own futures. This represents a massive shift from agricul- tural, industrial, and information-based work in which our relationships and responsibilities were static and clearly defined by others. In the past, we applied for jobs. Now we are asked to design our work. By 2020, we project 45% of the Western workforce will be knowmadic. Moreover, this number will grow. That is, the jobs we take on and the ways in which we relate with each other will require less specificity about task and place. Knowmads can instantly reconfigure and recontextualize their work environ- ments, and advances in mobility aforded by technological development leads to the continuous creation of new opportunities. A knowmad is only employed on a job as long as he or she can add value to an organization. If not, it’s time to move on to the next gig. Knowmads diferentiate their jobs from work. Jobs are positions, gigs, or other forms of employment. Work is longer term in scope, and relates to the creation of meaningful outcomes. One’s work difers from a career in Knowmad Society. Whereas a career is something that “carries” a person throughout life, an individual’s work is a collection of activities that are backed with elements 20 Knowmad Society that are purposive at the personal level. In other words, the results of a know- mad’s work are that person’s responsibility alone. Knowmads strive to continually define and refine their work. This can be expressed through occupying various jobs, apprenticeships, entrepreneurship, social activities, etc. If the knowmad once made a diference at their job, but there is little new opportunity for creating change, then it’s time to move on. Without having a purposive direction to herd one’s various jobs into work, we must question if that person has found his or her way. Knowmad Society brings in a futures orientation, projecting not only the future of our workforce, but also examines the social, educational, and political implications for developing human capital that is relevant for the 21st century. We are at a crossroads where we can design a new human renaissance, built on leveraging our imagination, creativity and innovation – or we can doom ourselves to repeating the mistakes of our past. This book builds on the ideas of many others who also observe the rise of Knowmad Society. Intriguing examples include: • At the 2011 Lift Conference, Yasmine Abbas shared her vision of neo-nomadism, which she constructed from an urban planning perspective. Mobility is increasing, spatially, mentally, and electronically. This, in turn, creates new opportunities and challenges for how we integrate interperson- ally and as organized cities (see Abbas, 2011). • Digital nomads, as defined in Wikipedia (“Digital nomad,” n.d.), are: “indi- viduals that leverage digital technologies to perform their work duties, and more generally conduct their lifestyle in a nomadic manner. Such workers typically work remotely—from home, cofee shops and public libraries to collaborate with teams across the globe.” This is an idea that Makimoto and Manners (1997) explored extensively in their book, Digital nomad. • 1099 workers – independent contractors (named from their frequent use of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service form 1099) – are a growing segment of the economy in the United States (see esp. Kotkin, 2012). • Richard Florida developed the concept of the creative class of innovation and context-creation workers, consisting of a super-creative core, traditional knowledge workers, and new Bohemians (Florida, 2004; Florida, 2005). 21 Introduction to Knowmad Society • Richard Oliver (2007) discusses purposive drift – a need to connect with our inner humanness as we explore uncertain futures. Even if we are not sure where we our lives are going, as individuals, we need to develop a sense of purpose, or we would be simply lost. • The U.S. Air Force, in its futures-based research, warns of hyper-powered individuals, aided by technologies, that may create more harm and havoc than any nation could in the previous century. The technological elimination of time and distance barriers means a greater number of individuals and organizations will play a role in charting future societies (Geis et al., p. xv). …and so on. The bottom line: Individual talent is becoming increasingly important in the 21st century.

Here I will acknowledge just a few of those who helped make this dissertation what it is, though of course I take full credit for all of its failings. I first got interested in India as a religion major at Bryn Mawr College (and Haverford) and classes I took with two wonderful men who ended up advising my undergraduate thesis on the epic Ramayana: Michael Sells and Steven Hopkins. Dr. Sells introduced me to Wendy Doniger’s work, and like so many others, I went to the University of Chicago Divinity School to study with her, and her warmth compensated for the Chicago cold.

  • Celebrafing 60 Years of Bhaskar's Arts Academy
    January 2012 Celebrating 60 years of Bhaskar’s Arts Academy Before I say anything else, let me first wish our readers a very happy 2012! May the year bring fulfillment and fruition to many more artistic dreams. And 3 may Aesthetics attract even more writers and readers – locally, regionally and Past Events internationally. The driving force for the theme of this issue - ‘Crossing Oceans’ was Bhaskar’s Arts Academy’s travel, first to Bangkok where the troupe 4 performed at the International Ramayana Festival, and soon after to From THE EXPERIMENTATION & Bangalore where they presented “Chakra” at S-VYASA. I felt it would be INNOVATION IN INDIAN ART thread topical, allowing for the thoughts and experiences of the choreographer, Mrs. Santha Bhaskar, as well as the participating dancers to be shared. Mrs Bhaskar, Meenakshy Bhaskar, Thava Rani Mohan and Dhana Bharathi have Fusion at its Peak - B.V. Balasai in provided interesting accounts of both performance tours and the impact the Conversation with Nirmala Seshadri works had on the audiences. Also on the theme of travel and the artist, Dr. with Performance Reflections Patrick Suzeau of Kansas University writes on his artistic journey which has been intricately linked to moving through geographical space and staying by Mrina Avadhani very open, very receptive to the people, art and culture of each place. Each time I meet Patrick, his energy, excitement and openness have never failed CROSSING OCEANS to amaze me. Once the theme of this issue had been decided, I just HAD to interview Gil Alon, Jeremy Monteiro and Astad Deboo – 3 artists for whom travel has been the mantra.
