520			_aMost societies, but particularly technically advanced ones such as the United States, are undergoing major transitions social, political, economic, and philosophical. Possibly the most compelling of these is the one taking us from an "Industrial" to a "Post-Industrial" age a transformation that is being fueled by developments in information and communications technology.* Some important characteristics of the new age may already be evident. As individual or independent institutions become more global, more interrelated and interactive, they will give way to systems and networks. Delayed decision-making will yield to real-time management. Preoccupation with short-term limits to growth will yield to a more appropriate balance between short-term tactics and long-term strategy. Anything less will mean a failure to employ our new managerial capabilities. Attention must be paid to the implications of man's own decisions relating to his environment, to man's rapidly changing aspirations and satisfactions, and to man's perception of himself and of his society.
