Are you ready to change the world?

The new breed of market leaders think and act differently. They fuse

digital and physical, global and local, ideas and networks. They win by

being smart, fast and connected – rather than through scale and

efficiency. They embrace all the new business tools - from empathetic

design to disruptive technologies, social media to sustainable innovation –

bringing them together for more impact.

These are the building blocks for you to come a gamechanger too.

• Human … customer-driven, human-centred emotionally-engaging business

• Creative … design and innovation, to think bolder , different and better

• Networked … built around networks and partnerships of supply and demand

• Social … social media and online communities, but local and tribal too

• Participative … crowdsourcing, co-creating, collaborating with customers

• Responsible … doing better by doing good, socially and environmentally

“Gamechangers: Are you ready to change the

world?” is the next book from Peter Fisk
