HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES ON “DISRUPTORS”
Did you know that France dominated medicine until about 1870 & then Germany. But, since the “Flexner Report” you could say America has had the best doctors in the world.
Yet today, American physicians aren’t recommending medicine to their children; even my own child eschewed medical school to my [ultimate] delight and academically surpassed me in short order. The profession has been depersonalized by an alphabet soup of reforms with some evidence, little evidence, or mind you none at all.
The IOM says it takes an average 17 years for documented scientific facts to percolate into medical practice. So, the next revolution in medicine will not be televised or mandated from congress; nor from the planned impersonal and technical ABJ troika.
No, it’ll be found in the relationship between a physician & a patient. And, like the philosopher Lawrence Ferlinghetti said, “I am anxiously waiting for the secret to enteral life to be discovered by an obscure general practitioner.”
SIDEBAR: Bill Gates, the former CEO of Microsoft, was once asked what kept him up at night. He replied that it was not IBM, Apple, or a competitor, etc. Rather, he worried about a solitary college kid in his/her door room plotting to take MSFT down. And, he should know as that same college dropout who did take down IBM, won the OS and browser wars, as MSFT is once again the most valuable and innovative corporation on the planet.
Disruptive innovation can’t be planned or engineered. It arises in the gut with passion and … organically.
Any thoughts?
