A Global Intelligence Briefing For
CEOs
Herbert Meyer
Currently, there are four major
transformations that are shaping
political, economic and world events.
These transformations have
profound implications for American
business owners, our culture and our
way of life.
1. The War in
There are three major monotheistic
religions in the world: Christianity,
Judaism and Islam. In the 16th
century, Judaism and Christianity
reconciled with the modern world. The
rabbis, priests and scholars found
a way to settle up and pave the way
forward. Religion remained at the
center of life, church and state
became separate. Rule of law, idea of
economic liberty, individual rights,
human rights all these are defining
points of modern Western
civilization. These concepts started with the
Greeks but didn't take off until the
15th and 16th century when Judaism
and Christianity found a way to
reconcile with the modern world. When
that happened, it unleashed the
scientific revolution and the greatest
outpouring of art, literature and
music the world has ever known.
Islam, which developed in the 7th
century, counts millions of Moslems
around the world who are normal people.
However, there is a radical
streak within Islam. When the
radicals are in charge, Islam attacks
Western civilization. Islam first
attacked Western civilization in the
7th century, and later in the 16th
and 17th centuries. By 1683, the
Moslems (Turks from the Ottoman
Empire) were literally at the gates of
Western civilization took place. The
West won and went forward. Islam
lost and went backward Interestingly,
the date of that battle was
September 11. Since them, Islam has
not found a way to reconcile with
the modern world.
Today, terrorism is the third attack
on Western civilization by radical
Islam. To deal with terrorism, the
units of our armed forces are in 30
countries around the world hunting
down terrorist groups and dealing
with them. This gets very little
publicity. Second we are taking
military action in

military to remove the radicals
from power and give the moderates a

century. That's what our involvement

The lesson of 9/11 is that we live in

3. Shifting Demographics of Western
Civilization
Most countries in the Western world
have stopped breeding. For a
civilization obsessed with sex, this
is remarkable. Maintaining a steady
population requires a birth rate of

percent below replacement. In 30
years there will be 70 to 80 million
fewer Europeans than there are
today. The current birth rate in

working age population declines by
30 percent in 20 years, which has a
huge impact on the economy.

replace the older ones, you have to
import them. The European countries
are currently importing Moslems.
Today, the Moslems comprise 10

they have higher birthrates.
However, the Moslem populations are
not being integrated into the
cultures of their host countries, which
is a political catastrophe. One

rate drops below replacement, the
population ages. With fewer working

on the smaller group of working

society understands, you need kids to
have a healthy society. Children
are huge consumers. Then they grow up
to become taxpayers. That's how a
society works, but the post-modern
secular state seems to have forgotten
that. If
as post-World War II, there would be
no Social Security or Medicare
problems.
The world's most effective birth
control device is money. As society
creates a middle class and women move
into the workforce, birth rates
drop. Having large families is
incompatible with middle class living.
The quickest way to drop the birth
rate is through rapid economic
development. After World War II, the

4. Restructuring of American Business
The fourth major transformation
involves a fundamental restructuring of
American business. Today's business
environment is very complex and
competitive. To succeed, you have to
be the best, which means having the
highest quality and lowest cost.
Whatever your price point, you must
have the best quality and lowest
price. To be the best, you have to
concentrate on one thing. You can't
be all things to all people and be
the best.
A generation ago, IBM used to make
every part of their computer. Now
Intel makes the chips, Microsoft
makes the software, and someone else
makes the modems, hard drives,
monitors, etc. IBM even outsources their
call center. Because IBM has all
these companies supplying goods and
services cheaper and better than they
could do it themselves, they can
make a better computer at a lower
cost. This is called a "fracturing" of
business. When one company can make a
better product by relying on
others to perform functions the
business used to do itself, it creates a
complex pyramid of companies that
serve and support each other.
This fracturing of American business
is now in its second generation.
The companies who supply IBM are now
doing the same thing, outsourcing
many of their core services and
production process. As a result, they
can make cheaper, better products.
Over time, this pyramid continues to
get bigger and bigger. Just when you
think it can't fracture again, it
does. Even very small businesses can
have a large pyramid of corporate
entities that perform many of its
important functions. One aspect of
this trend is that companies end up
with fewer employees and more
independent contractors.
This trend has also created two new
words in business, integrator and
complementor. At the top of the
pyramid, IBM is the integrator. As you
go down the pyramid, Microsoft, Intel
and the other companies that
support IBM are the complementors.
However, each of the complementors is
itself an integrator for the
complementors underneath it. This has
several implications, the first of
which is that we are now getting
false readings on the economy. People
who used to be employees are now
independent contractors launching
their own businesses. There are many
people working whose work is not
listed as a job. As a result, the
economy is perking along better than
the numbers are telling us.
Outsourcing also confused the
numbers. Suppose a company like General
Motors decides to outsource all its
employee cafeteria functions to
Marriott (which it did). It lays off
hundreds of cafeteria workers, who
then get hired right back by
Marriott. The only thing that has changed
is that these people work for
Marriott rather than GM. Yet, the
headlines will scream that
that really happened is that these
workers are now reclassified as
service workers. So the old way of
counting jobs contributes to false
economic readings. As yet, we haven't
figured out how to make the
numbers catch up with the changing
realities of the business world.
Another implication of this massive
restructuring is that because
companies are getting rid of units
and people that used to work for
them, the entity is smaller. As the
companies+ get smaller and more
efficient, revenues are going down
but profits are going up. As a
result, the old notion that
"revenues are up and we're doing great"
isn't always the case anymore.
Companies are getting smaller but are
becoming more efficient and
profitable in the process.

reversed if the young people start

aging populations. There will be
tremendous demand for caring for
older people, especially those who
don't need nursing homes but need
some level of care. Some people will
have a business where they take care
of three or four people in their
homes. The demand for that type of
service and for products to
physically care for aging people will
be huge.

Europe or

Businesses need customers. Go where the
customers are.
4. Restructuring of American Business
The restructuring of American
business means we are coming to the end of
the age of the employer and employee.
With all this fracturing of
businesses into different and smaller
units, employers can't guarantee
jobs anymore because they don't know
what their companies will look like
next year. Everyone is on their way
to becoming an independent
contractor. The new workforce
contract will be, "Show up at the my
office five days a week and do what I
want you to do, but you handle
your own insurance, benefits, health
care and everything else."
Husbands and wives are becoming
economic units. They take different jobs
and work different shifts depending
on where they are in their careers
and families. They make tradeoffs to
put together a compensation package
to take care of the family. This used
to happen only with highly
educated professionals with high
incomes. Now it is happening at the
level of the factory floor worker.
Couples at all levels are designing
their compensation packages based on
their individual needs. The only
way this can work is if everything is
portable and flexible, which
requires a huge shift in the American
economy.

are ourselves, by losing our culture.
