This is the second installment in a series of blog posts in which we will introduce you to this year's Connected Enterprise (#CCE2013) speakers. This year's list of speakers is comprised of a group of revolutionaries that will challenge you to reevaluate your approach to standing business models.
Say hello to Chris Meyer, innovator, author, and founder of Monitor Talent.
Chris has dedicated his career to anticipating and shaping the future of business. And he's been pretty busy. Chris is the author of four books including Standing on the Sun, and Blur: The Speed of Change in the Connected Economy and Future Wealth, a BusinessWeek Best Seller.
Reexamining capitalism
One of Chris' major areas of analysis is the changing dynamics of capitalism. The capitalism of today looks very different from the Adam Smith-style capitalism of 1776. As emerging economies gain power and mature, will they adopt the practices of the old guard? Or will they make their own way, and create the next prevailing version of capitalism? What new opportunities will that create for firms around the world?
Join us at Connected Enterprise and hear from Chris how:
- The obsession with return on equity gives way to more broad-based measurements of success.
- Adam Smith's invisible hand of the market is redeemed by the "invisible handshake" of collaborative networks.
- Businesses take ownership of the impacts they now call "externalities."
