Inspirational Thought Leaders
Leading the way...
Several Thought Leaders have inspired, influenced and illuminated the journey C 2.0 has taken and will continue to take in order to transform lives and help keep planet Earth habitable for us for generations and eons to come. Listed below are great works by incredible human beings.
As dire as this may sound, there is good news to be had. A compound effect is also happening in a positive direction. A new business model called Exponential Organizations (ExO)2 has surfaced based on the unprecedented growth and ability of some businesses (and some social applications too) to have wide scale and extraordinary success based on disruptive technologies that compound where they interact and act interdependently. The term convergence is used to describe this phenomenon and it offers hope that we can save ourselves from compounding negative challenges. C 2.0 will use the ExO model as a tool to frame, drive and create the monumental change needed within and among partner organizations committed to this challenge.
In this era of exponential change the only sure path forward is continuous experimentation. As disruptive technologies continue to come onboard and begin to converge no one know what their combined impact will be. What can be predicted is as soon as one version of the future is created, another disruption will soon follow. During this type of change that can breed a feeling of being unmoored it will be necessary to create a sense of calm and trust, a sort of eye in the middle of a hurricane. A place where we can be both stable and dynamic and continue experimenting with new solutions. A community of kindred spirits, all of us explorers, in the new frontier of exponential change. A next-gen community: Community 2.0.
