Why do some organisations grow and others decline? Why do some sports thrive while others remain marginalized? How do we ensure Taekwon-Do thrives in the modern world? Technological change is accelerating. Many technologies are converging and intersecting, resulting in innovations that seem like magic. Electric cars are on their way to mainstream status. Artificial intelligence is everywhere, in our pockets and driving our cars. Yet amongst all this growth, the world wrestles with a significant global health pandemic and the economic and societal aftershock. It’s not business as usual. How will Taekwon-Do and its organisations change to survive and thrive in this new world?

FUNDING RETIREMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTORS By Mark Banicevich, New Zealand
Professional Taekwon‐Do instructors are self‐employed owners of small businesses. They do not have the benefits of specialists employed by corporations. This includes common employment benefits, such as pension schemes. The ITF cannot create the infrastructure to do these things for professional instructors – it would be far too’ inefficient for a small international entity to develop efficient global structures. Instead, the ITF should arm instructors with the information they need to act themselves, and measure their success based on the actions of those instructors. Therefore, the ITF should educate its instructors financially – in budgeting, debt management, wealth protection, accumulation and decumulation.
