Cost of digitized knowledge → “Zero”

Economic value is not based on ownership but use

Knowledge collection, processingand transmitting will be dominantin all industries

Boundary-less

Highly networked

Only the “top” is relevant; the “average” will be automated

The only sustainable competitive advantage → “Learning”

KNOWLEDGE-BASED ENTERPRISE

Page 7: The Knowledge Era And The Innovation Urgency

WHERE ARE LEARNING ACTIVITIES ALOWED?

Learning = Risk

Page 8: The Knowledge Era And The Innovation Urgency

HOW TO START A LEARNING PROCESS?

INNOVATOR’S DILEMMA

Companies depend on customers and investors for resource

New markets don’t solve the grow needs of large companies

Markets that don’t exist yet can’t be analyzed

Organization’s capabilities define its disabilities

Technology supply may not equal Market demand

(why and when good management lead to failure)

5 Principles

MY PERSONALLY OPINION

Innovative business needs not a business plan but a learning planBased on Empathy and CollaborationThe role of a project manager in an innovative project is to moderate and support the learning processThe role of the top management in a innovative company is to create room for experiments and learning, and to plan the “chasm crossing”
