Economies, enterprises and markets are transiting from a relatively stable state to a perpetually effervescent state. Systems, products and capabilities get obsolete quickly and require constant improvement.4) Innovation is the Only GameThe advantage is shifting from the “bigger and more efficient” to the “faster and more innovative”. Many industries and corporate giants will be disrupted by ingenious enterprises that imagine new opportunities, create untapped value and captures blue ocean markets – FIRST.DO YOU KNOW THAT:- The world system is transforming from the Industrial Economy to the Innovation Economy, which has revolutionary impact similar to or greater than the Industrial Revolution.Al Gore: “The global economy is being transformed by changes far greater in speed and scale than any other in human history.”Future of Work expert, London Business School Professor Lynda Gratton: “We are in the biggest transformation ever. Even bigger than Industrial Revolution”- As we enter the Innovation Economy, everything is up for re-imagination and re-invention. The old rules of business, industries and consumption is falling apart and giving way to information-powered and digitalized processes, products and solutions. Mary Meeker of Kleiner Perkins calls this “the re-imagination of nearly everything”. McKinsey estimates that US$14-33 trillion of economic impact will be created annually in 2025 by disruptive innovations.Al Gore: “We are living with, and in, Earth Inc.: national policies, regional strategies and long accepted economic theories are now irrelevant to the new realities of our new hyper-connected, tightly integrated, highly interactive, and technologically revolutionanized economy.”- The rate of change is speeding up and will soon become unmanageable for most governments, enterprises and individuals. The magnitude of change we experienced in the last ten years could be compressed into the next five. This is driven by new inventions, rapid technological adoption, digital technologies and the Internet.Bill Gates: “Business in going to change more in the next ten years than it has in the last fifty.”Peter Diamandis, Chairman of X Prize Foundation and Singularity University: “Over the next eight years, three billion new individuals will be coming online, joining the global conversation, and contributing to the global economy. Their ideas – ideas we’ve never before had access to – will result in new discoveries, products, and inventions that will benefit us all.”- The old efficiency-based strategies and competencies that enabled enterprises to compete in the past are necessary but insufficient conditions for future success. Game-changing business models, digital strategies, and innovative capabilities are now the critical ingredients for success.Gary Hamel, World’s Leading Business Thinker: “Somewhere out there is a bullet with your company’s name on it. Somewhere out there is a competitor, unborn and unknown, that will render your strategy obsolete. You can’t dodge the bullet – you’re going to have to shoot first. You’re going to have to out-innovate the innovators.”DO YOU WANT TO LEARN ABOUT:(1) FUTURE OF BUSINESSPreview the Future, Seize the OpportunitiesThe Innovation Economy that features Information, Ideas, Innovation, Imagination, and Intelligence as the core engines of growth.New Business Models, Mindset, Strategies and Competencies to Win in the Innovation Economy.Digital Disruption of Industries: How Media, Retail, Entertainment, Transportation, Education, Healthcare, Manufacturing has been or will be disrupted by digital technologies.The 5 Most Powerful Shifts in Business and Society.The 6 Platform Technologies that will Take Off in the next 5 years.Exponential Change and its Impact on Business, Markets, Competition and Consumers.The Global Future of Work, Human Resources and Skills.
