Building the Enterprise of the Future: Co-creating and delivering extraordinary value in an eight-billion-mind world (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692948668)

As we look ahead to an eight-billion-mind world, we face many new challenges and opportunities. This will demand bringing all of our collective knowledge to bear.

Traditional business and organizational models impede the flow of knowledge and will not work. We need to design new business models and strategies, even entirely new business ecosystems. We call this the Enterprise of the Future.

Such an enterprise must be able to innovate and learn at least as fast as, or greater than, the speed of change in the market. This means transforming traditional, knowledge-hoarding organizations into enterprises with a culture that promotes rapid innovation, learning and knowledge-sharing.

This book gives you a simple step-by-step approach for making this transformation happen, based on decades of research and field practice. Over time, you'll see measurable improvements in learning rates, concept-to-development cycle times, and time-to-market. Through a systematic process of leading, connecting, co-creating, and discovering, you'll be able to not only respond to, but lead, the changes in your market.

"I have read many multidisciplinary books. And yet, there was something different about this one. It raised two important questions: Where are we going, and why are we going there? After finishing the book one realizes that we need to be not only thinking about the future, but at the same time thinking about how to prepare ourselves to make that future better." - Dr. Kamen Lozev, Associate Professor and past Fulbright Scholar: South-West University 'Neofit Rilski' - Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria

This book serves to clearly and succinctly answer the question, 'How do we get there?'" - Dr. Alex Bennet, Mountain Quest Institute; Professor of Knowledge and Innovation Management: Bangkok University
