Technology enables, it allows, it permits and it extends what is possible, and how much can be done, though we do not see technology in this light. The way we view technology is that it is not about bits, bytes (and bites), circuits or bandwidth. Technology is about people, it’s about relationships, it’s about trust. With all that we do, our first task is to understand the people we deal with, build a sound relationship with them, and then trust can be formed. Only after this has been achieved can we begin to discuss how we can use technology to further enhance the relationships and lives of the people who will be affected by the technology we harness and create.
