Not long ago, after I had delivered a speech on the new economy, a woman entering the job market approached me to talk about her career anxiety.

"I'm not worried that I won't land something good," she explained. "I'm afraid that work will be too cold and impersonal. What can I do to guarantee I'll be successful but also happy?"

The other man said, "I don't think I can compete with these kids ßying out of schools loaded with their new-economy knowledge and jargon. Everyone else seems to be jumping into new roles, but I think the world is limiting me with all its rules and biases."

"That's not how the world is run," I replied. "It's run via intangibles -- knowledge, networks, and compassion."
