In 2010, at least 3 digital Gen X HR voices will rise from the CHRO suite within the Fortune 500.  Like Neo in the Matrix trilogy, two of the three voices won't believe they're "the one".  One will lead their blog with this quote and a picture of Tyler Durden dressed as a waiter: 

"We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war, our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off. 

Within 6 months, all three will be fired as the enterprises they serve fail to comprehend the value of transparency.  2 of those will never be heard from again, until John Sumser tracks one down in Reno off of data from a Dollar General pre-paid phone card.  Sumser will interview that former Fortune 500 CHRO and make them the 100^th profile in his “Top Influencers” series, noting the irony and cautionary tale.

One will rise to challenge the hegemony of David Ulrich.  She will be the one who led with the quote from Fight Club.  She’ll also have a mentor named Morpheus, just like Neo.

It is written, and so it shall be done.
