Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything Authors Don Tapscott and Anthony D. Williams present the first book to truly come to grips with some of the most profound business changes of our time. Wikinomics explains how winning companies innovate and succeed in the emerging Age of Collaboration. Using their knowledge, resources, and computing power, millions of people—consumers, employees, suppliers, business partners, and even competitors—are now self-organizing into a massive collective force. Interconnected and orchestrated through blogs, Wikis, chat rooms, peer-to-peer networks, and personal broadcasting, these individuals are reinventing the Web to provide the first global platform for collaboration. |
New Paradigm is a business innovation group headed by IT strategist, speaker, and best-selling author Don Tapscott. Since 1993 the New Paradigm team of seasoned research analysts that includes technologists, social scientists, and business experts has been serving clients worldwide. Its interdisciplinary, case-based research approach gives New Paradigm a balanced, holistic, precompetitive view of the future that is unique to the marketplace. The firm "reverse engineers" emerging businesses/business models by looking over the horizon and then distills a set of actionable planning tools that facilitate the implementation of powerful new strategies. |
