Organizations are facing more tension than ever. They recognize ecosystems are critical but are frozen in different levels of uncertainty- be this investment fatigue, short-tern ROI pressures, internal misalignments abound, the enourmous pressure of AI and what it replaces, challenges or disrupts, and the fear of being confronted by larger scale transformation at times of economic uncertainly.
The last thing most do not want to hear is about another new comprehensive, transforming business model like the Integrated, Interconnected Business Ecosystem (IIBE) blueprint can offer. I get that but this needs to be also viewed through different eyes.
The IIBE offers a pragmatic solution staged over time. Its central premise is actually managing its orchestration, providing this progressive ecosystem alignment, enabling a shift and adaption into Ecosystems at their “given” pace and appetite.
The IIBE blueprint helps organizations to advance at their capabilities and capacities placing this integrated ecosystem thinking, into existing strategy, operations and partnerships- without requiring disruptive transformation. It works with current business models, it builds coherence across existing initiatives and reduces complexity in stages of learning and proof.
The IIBE operates as an alignment tool not intent on delivering a transformation agenda, unless it is necessary due to crisis, recognized need of how ecosystems can reconfigue new markets and competitive advantage as the necessary new competitive edge reguired.
So How Can Organizations Move Forward without those Grand Transforming Everything Approaches?
