5.     How did technology and social media help this change?

6.     What is the role of Gen Xers and Millennials?

7.     How can or should a company data analytics into this change?

8.     What are the 6 archetypes of value creation?

9.     What is the Southwire “12 for Life” story?

10.  Why did your student’s attempt to replicate it fail, and what lessons did you draw from that failure?
