Why New Organizations Are Ten Times Better, Faster, and Cheaper Than Yours (and What to Do About It)
Diversion Books, 2014
¿De qué se trata?
Future-proof your organization with low-cost and abundant information.
Recommendation
Authors Salim Ismail and Yuri van Geest – part of the future-oriented Singularity University – along with technology writer Michael S. Malone consolidate changes, ideas and soon-to-come technologies they’ve used, seen and heard about into a how-to manual for changing the business world. Command-and-control, hierarchy-heavy enterprises will not endure. Every company is or will evolve into an information-based entity, in which costs fall to nearly zero, abundance replaces scarcity and only “Exponential Organizations” (ExOs) survive. Dinosaur firms must change rapidly or face extinction. The authors are perhaps a bit too evangelical in their fervor, but their extraordinary vision may inspire executives, entrepreneurs and investors.
