The Coming “Perfect Storm” in Higher Education

Neil B. Niman

Chapter Chapter 1 in The Gamification of Higher Education, 2014, pp 7-26 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Depending on one’s penchant for risk, change is either a breath of fresh air or a horrible nightmare. The hard part to managing change is when it comes time to evaluate whether it represents a short-term fad that may shake things up for a brief period and then go away, or if it represents something more fundamental that represents a true game changer. Many firms are no longer with us because they either thought a permanent change was only a temporary flirtation with a bad idea, or could not respond to a major shift in the marketplace. Realizing that the future is not going to follow the patterns of the past is only the first step that must be taken in response to change. Adapting your organization to meet the challenges of a new reality is something entirely different.
