Citation preview
ApproachAbout the
– A transformational change methodology that is a blend of:• Participatory action research based (focus on action, teamwork, openness & knowledge/learning).
• Design thinking approaches (HCD, service design tools, co-design, UX design, social innovation tools),
• Creative practices (devising, role-play, rehearsing)• Management consultancy tools (visual and kinaesthetic approaches like Business Model Canvas, as well as traditional change management tools),
– An agile step-change journey, taken across the (hierarchy of the) organisation, facilitated to distill vision and mission and values
– Unleashes participants’ creativity and inventiveness, to ensure buy-in– Focuses on building capacity and adaptability and awareness of the continuously disrupted business landscape

• a relevant framework for emerging technology management, for enterprises of any scale and operational model
• as applicable to the potential disruptions of the technologies for web 3.0 as it has been for the disruptions of web 1.0 and web 2.0
• cross disciplinary - IT/digital/computing + business strategy/development + creative/design approaches to innovation & entrepreneuring/intrapreneuring
• action and research based; enabling internal learning and reflection, customer participation, and rapid prototyping
• a digital toolkit, brand, and IP owned by Rudman Consulting, and an openly available source set of resources

2014: Every business is a digital business• IT/digital & business strategy are no longer separate
– being a connected company demands a creative approach, networked leadership, social innovation with customers, collaborative approaches to capacity builiding
• Web 3.0 technologies will be extremely disruptive & demand creative strategy– approaches such as co-design, UX design, service design, action research, lean start-up methods
• Large enterprises will become the disrupters around web 3.0– but they will need develop creative practices and be more open / engaged, because the way people collaborate with companies, enterprise, governments, institutions has changed
• Universities will be just as disrupted as creative industries enterprises – HEI teaching pedagogy, research, learning, enterprise spin out, and core business models and practices will have to rapidly adapt

“It’s tragic because, by my reading, should we fail to
radically change our approach to education, the same cohort we’re attempting to ‘protect’
could find that their entire future is scuttled by our
timidity.”
Lord David PuttnamSpeech at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, June 2012
Knowledge, reach, relevance, confer legitimacy•Universities as institutions have held power through expertise, positional
authority, distance and mystery•FutureLearn, Udacity, EdX, etc. bring that to everyone everywhere

2020: threats for HEIs
What will learning be (expected to) look and be like by Generation Z?- Flexible and personalised
- Great media presentations which are interactive, engaging - MOOCs: some learning expected to be online
- Cross-disciplinarity: arts/media & science/tech & business/entrepreneurship
High cost and level of long-standing debt following a college education- courses have to provide academic learning and practical routes into jobs careers
Online EMBA/MBAs from top-ranked universities in the world capture lions’ share of market“Half of the business schools in this country could be out of business in 10 years—or five,”
(Richard Lyons, Dean, Haas School of Business, Berkeley. In Bloomberg Buiness Week, Mar 14th 2014)
2020: threats for HEIs
Challenge to build a Digital Campus and change mindset to openness, collaboration, contribution, power to the edge from heirarchy, distance,
exclusivity, ego.
The large institution will especially be impacted by the web 3.0 digital disruptions of: crowdsourcing of micro funds/tasks/products, e-currency,
robots, space,open innovation, big data, nano tech, wearable computing and internet of things

2020: opportunities for HEIsDemand for cheap education from emerging regions
- but flexibility & personalised preferred to free
Demand for virtual and satellite partnership campuses overseas
Rise of virtual and satellite campuses of developing nation universities hosted in the UK
Powerful market and reputation building opportunities for research that is impactful (and “legible”) in business/communities/government: university campuses become dynamic hubs
of innovation, learning and collaboration
Learners can be engaged beyond campus for life if there is flexibility, digital platforms, and appropriate leadership ensures strategies are put in place so that the university can innovate,
collaborate, and/or react to market conditions
2020: opportunities for HEIs
Creativity, initiative, imagination, entrepreneurial flair, digital skills, networks, emotional intelligence, and social skills as well as the ability to be a global citizen will increasing be needed and valued by students (and employers). Creative approaches; engagement with culture, communities, & networks;
digital skills; interdisciplinarity; personal & professional development will all be essential for the academy to offer - this is the focus of the offer in the place
Meaning will matter to Generation Z just as much as money - social enterprise, CIC, charitable, and other T/QBL models of business to be given just as much
profile
Niche market opportunity if schools can be responsive and relevant to the emerging businesses and careers the web 3.0 digital disruptions will create &
encourage cross-disciplinarity18
