The Future of Business Is Open
In an always-on, fast-moving world, it is business-critical to let the outside in. The traditional walled, top-down business model that results in the suffocation of ideas and ingenuity does not work anymore. We believe, instead, that ideas can evolve and make quantum leaps when they are shared, freed and built upon. We believe in a connected world, in open source, in collaboration and in co-creation. In short, we believe in unblinking, radical transparency. In this speech, Terry Young explores the key values embraced by open businesses and looks at how this fundamental shift will transform business over the next several decades.
