Key takeaways from a year marked by profound disruption, change and innovation ladmir Lenin’s observation—“There are decades when nothing happens and weeks when decades happen” —has become a cliché in 2020. The world drastically changed with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of the global trends reached tipping point and the shelf life of some of the world-shaping forces got over. If there was a turbulence index, this would be a peak year for it. On a regular day, we channelise our attention to things that directly affect our lives in the here and now. However, there are forces at play that will profoundly shape our futures, some below the radar, others visible but with unintended consequences. Here are five such things that I believe stand out as the events of 2020.
