Credit Crisis to Collaborative Capitalism

from credit crisis

to

collaborative capitalism

30 slides to reassure you that all is not lost ...

let’s start by winding back the clock

500 years ago people worked from home,

mostly farming & fishing for food

then people started selling goods

all over the world to a global market

the steam engine came along and made

transporting goods much easier

and it also made manufacturing

much more productive too

the industrial revolution was

a great time for banks (except in the 30s)

but was a shit time for children

and factory workers

until ‘managerial capitalism’ comes along

and everyone gets more of everything

(at least that’s the idea)

but more of everything isn’t always good either

especially when it comes to easy credit

because too much credit makes

it too easy to buy houses

and when banks start packaging, insuring

and selling ‘toxic’ mortgages

they pollute the entire financial system

which leads the entire global economy

into hot water

so the big question is:

where do we go from here?

well, what if we combine

collaboration and competition?

because collaborative efforts

can do great things

(sometimes even better than

people who get paid for their time)

and competition produces great results too

plus it’s also kinda good to get paid

then we get an economic model where

the individual is empowered

because instead of

being at the bottom of pile

the individual becomes the epicenter of

their own collaborative network

you

and has resources at their fingertips

to collaborate AND compete

in a global markteplace

from home, or wherever they want

you could call it ‘Collaborative Capitalism’
