The fast pace of technological change is sorting firms into two types: those that can adapt to and thrive in disruption, and those that cannot. Key to this difference in workforce development are skills of mass disruption—the skills that allow us to drive, create, and exploit change, rather than simply endure it.
Have high projected demand growth
Are undersupplied in the current labor market

Only 31% of disruptive workers are recruited internally
Nearly two-thirds of disruptive workers transitioned from a different occupation
Only 5% of the current disruptive workforce has less than a bachelor's degree
This is the first management job for 70% of those leading disruptive tech teams
