Collective Learning needs to be applied to the Hierarchy of Business Ecosystems.

How can we realize the power of ecosystem thinking and design and its growing value to enterprises? This will come through collective learning, exchanging and exploring a diversity of opinions and experiences. Achieving alternative perspectives enables a level of discovery that enables innovation

it is the need to embrace new organizational design that Ecosystem thinking needs to be considered for building a different approach to the new business needs based on the recognition that the way we approach management in markets is going through radical change.

Ecosystem thinking and design require continuous collective learning. We require different conversations.

Collaborative Ecosystems, when combined, gain in collective intelligence, resilience and resistance and, when successfully integrated, can offer a significant impact and provide a higher level of radicality to present and offer as an alternative to today’s business and economic growth approach.
