The 15th ?G-20 Y at Evian-Les-Bains Has started today with leaders ranging form Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur or Ryad to South Africa or the US, (and of course a Belgian). The scope of this year Summit is about the paradigm shift from the old model of management ( vertical integration, industry, scale and efficiency) to one of ecosystem where network, technology and agility are becoming the management filters of surivival and success of the 21th century organization. ? Key message of the first day: 1.??#Business ecosystems are real but though to get off the ground and play- only 1 out of 8 #ecosystems succeeds. 2.??There is no free lunch- ecosystems allow faster innovation, specialization, and barriers to entry to “#flyingwheels” effects- however, interdependencies makes the system actors more dependent, the #orchestrator may close access in some cases, and #technology embeddedness and integration are complex 3.??Most companies are feeling the paradigm change #dilemma- stay the old way of organizing, or move to more nimble agile plays in broader ecosystems, or multiple ecosystems—at the end, management and board need to create the vision, the roadmap and incentives fast. 4.??The end user defines value creation in ecosystem—technology can help to be direct to customer,, while data and AI can build prediction and personalization. Ecosystems that will thrive will thus be obsessed by #enduser.? 5.??Do not try to be the orchestrator—platform tend to be the one taking that role, given their end user reach without mass. Being a #node in a ecosystem is possibly as rewarding, if you specialize; without the obligation and integration/ maintenance requirements of the orchestrators.? G-20Y Association
