Abstract

In this chapter, the authors show how leading companies are introducing new business logics and how innovations are produced through new ways of design thinking. They show how the elimination of constraints triggers acceleration and how this must be dealt with through new paradigms. The authors show the migration from cause and effect thinking to emergent design, from the world of tangible assets to that of emergent dialogue in relational networks. They show that in a world of transformation being successful means managing both the matter-of-fact world that we have inherited and the visionary world as it emerges: one a world of things, the other a world of competences. The authors show why the question is no longer “Why?” five times over, but “Why not?”
