Unfortunately, the list that follows describes the managers of literally every US-based company. If this is the requirement for successful offshore consultancy, then engineers here can rest assured their jobs will never actually be at stake.
When you can successfully hire a remote worker without needing 1) to speak their language, 2) understand their culture, customs, holidays, and 3) worry about time zone differences, then engineers here should start worrying about offshoring.

Also - missing the "next big thing" is something that people do all the time. One thing that one of my former colleagues told me - "Our job, as engineers, is to make our jobs obsolete in the end".
