Oh, wait - that didn't happen? Everything went on pretty much as before, even though everything had suddenly changed? And you still reckon we know anything about business? We've burned away all the dross of the 19th and 20th century's provably wrong misconceptions of productivity. So what really matters - and how do we lean into that?
