The Neo-Humanistic The Neo-Humanistic Society VisionSociety Vision

The innovative paradigm shift toward integrated products-services to meet customer values requires a focus shift from efficiency to creativity

Exploitation of creativity moves the attention from organisations to individuals

– Enterprise organizations become flatflat– Enhanced capability for finding resources and for

designing collaborative processes is enabled by the constitution of Knowledge Communities

ESoCE NET is the first Knowledge Community dedicated to Concurrent Enterprising
