!!! Overview
The accelerating pace of change for [organizations|Organizational Entity] across industries and geographies calls for new ways of working, learning, and collaborating. [Emergent|Emergent Design] Organizations are those willing to consider creative, evidence-based approaches to innovation, culture/HR, and market growth.[1]
Keep in mind, In [1958|Year 1958], U.S. corporations remained on the S&P 500 index for an average of 61 years, ...compared to today and companies are being replaced approximately every two weeks.[2]
There’s a reason we’ve run organizations the way we have. Our old Command and Control operating model was well-suited for complicated and predictable challenges. Some of these challenges still exist today and may respond to the industrial-era practices that we know so well.
However, as the pace of change accelerates, the challenges we face are becoming less and less predictable. Those practices that were so successful in the past are counter-productive in less predictable environments.

!! Excellent firms don’t believe in excellence
[Mark Dixon] recently mentioned in his [blog|http://www.discoveringidentity.com/2015/09/04/what-in-the-world-is-digital-transformation/|target='_blank'] "This made me remember a statement made by Tom Peters in his book, [Thriving on Chaos], which I first read in 1989:
''Excellent firms don’t believe in excellence – only in constant improvement and constant change. That is, excellent firms of tomorrow will cherish impermanence and thrive on chaos!''
!! Customer journey – rather than the product
''To be [customer] centric requires entire business processes to be deconstructed and re-invented with the customer journey – rather than the product – at the centre of the design, a challenge that is amplified even further by the evolution of digital channels and overwhelming amounts of data.'' \\- Tim Barber, Vice President, Global Telecoms and Media Industry at [ForgeRock]!!
