Summary of the Threshold Decades

The 20-year period of 1985-2005 was a time of significant transition from the accepted “reality” of the past to the new “reality” of the present. It was a time when the triumphs and constructs of the 20th century came up against the new global realities of the 21st century.

This two-decade time was when widely accepted ways of doing business, of well entrenched distribution systems and models and economic constructs were challenged, altered and in some cases eviscerated. Many industries that were perceived as dynamic, powerful and well situated in 1985 were on life support by 2005. Entire businesses were rendered obsolete in record time.

The Threshold Decades will truly be seen by future historians as the demarcation between the room of the past and the room of the present. Between the room of what was to the room of what is and what will be.

This twenty year period was the transition not only to this new century and to this new millennium but to this new age we now find ourselves in: The Shift Age.
