Transformation Trade-offs
Much has been written about the need for enterprise transformation and the obstacles that leaders invariably face. Many look for the One Best Way (a la Frederick Taylor) to achieve transformations, but the awkward truth is that leaders always have to make trade-offs along the way. In this article, we review some critical decisions that leaders must make, and discuss factors we think worthy of their consideration.

White Paper
Digital Myopia
and the Coming of
Post-Industrial
Civilization
Exponential technologies are invalidating long-held assumptions about jobs, firms, industries, and whole economies. Agility and adaptation are necessary to survival and flourishing for investors, companies and nation states. They are not sufficient, however. Leaders need to better understand the nature of the changes that are occurring. These changes are much more profound than most of us realize.

About our newsletter
The Institute develops new management thinking and tools to help you navigate a rapidly changing world. We are focused on the transition to a post-industrial economy and culture, characterized by exponential technologies in combination with rapid decentralization. The pandemic accelerated the transition, but also brought new constraints and uncertainties.
Entire industries are being transformed and new industries are being born. We believe we need to fundamentally change our thinking about firms, work, strategy, and governance. Our goal with our research and advisory work, and with this newsletter, is to help you connect the dots and chart a better strategy going forward.
The Post-Industrialist is published twice a month to an audience of PE and venture investors, founders, senior corporate exercutives, and policymakers. We keep it brief to share our perspectives with you in a condensed format.
