Liquidity vs. Settleness

Natural symbiosis vs. natural domination

Co-ownership vs. individual ownership

Flexible vs. fixed social structures

Nature versus Agricultural Beliefs

Oral vs. sedentary culture

Nomadic wars vs. territorial defense wars

These abstractions allow the differences between nomadic and agrarian peoples to be expressed more succinctly.

Liquidity vs. Settleness

Remote work and digital nomads (fluidity) vs. fixed hours in the office (sedentary)

Natural symbiosis vs. natural domination

Flexible working hours and work style (natural symbiosis) vs. strict working hours and work style (natural domination)

Co-ownership vs. individual ownership

Coworking spaces and open offices (sharing principle) vs. individual offices and cubicles (individually owned)

Flexible vs. fixed social structures

Flat organizational structure and voluntary team formation (flexible social structure) vs. hierarchical organizational structure and hierarchical relationships (fixed social structure)

Nature versus Agricultural Beliefs

Emphasis on creativity and innovation (nature faith) vs. traditional ways of working and processes (agrarian faith)

Oral vs. sedentary culture

Flexible communication and feedback culture (oral culture) vs. formal communication and reporting (sedentary culture)

Nomadic wars vs. territorial defense wars

Aggressive entry into new markets and sectors (nomadic war) vs. competition and defense in existing markets and sectors (territorial defense war)

These embodiments make it easier to understand the contrast between nomads and agrarians in the realm of how they work in developed countries in the age of AI.

---An aside

Working environment: physical and psychological conditions of the workplace

Social culture: the values, customs, and climate of an organization

Working conditions: working hours, remuneration, labor contract

Communication styles: ways of exchanging information and communicating

Organizational structure: hierarchy, division of roles, team organization

Growth and change: personal and organizational evolution, innovation and adaptability to the market

The use of nomadic and agrarian metaphors illustrates different approaches and values in working and organizational culture.

SITUATION: If fleeing is the best option, it is accepted as an appropriate decision.

Risk Management: It is important to ensure your own and others' safety by fleeing and avoiding unnecessary risks.

Flexibility: The flexibility to choose to flee when the situation calls for it will lead to finding new opportunities and directions.

Learning Opportunity: By fleeing, we can learn from our mistakes and develop the ability to face similar situations in the future.

Self-protection: sometimes running away is a necessary choice to protect one's mental and physical health and relationships.

While the approach to "running away" varies depending on the situation and objectives, it is important to view it in terms of appropriate decision-making, risk management, and flexibility.
