Dynamic Adaptation and Resilience in Interconnected Business Ecosystems

The Dynamic Ecosystem within the Interconnected Business Ecosystems

Business Ecosystems are the growing force to galvanize change and build a more collaborative culture, where the partners’ diversity enables solutions to be solving more complex and challenging problems we seem to be facing today.

When thinking about and designing business ecosystems, you must recognize that different ecosystems contribute, evolve, and determine their part in a “bigger” scheme of things. Recognizing that innovation, business, dynamic, and enterprise ecosystems through the design to be interconnected has evolved into the Interconnected Business Ecosystem framework.

Below in this post, I have clarified where the Dynamic Ecosystem fits and its significant contribution, influence, and impact on the health, dynamism, and future solution orientation we strive for in any new solutions. The C-level pitch sums it up well.

I have written extensively about “the dynamics within a system,” especially an innovation one, arguing that adaptation and resilience are consequences of practising “dynamics.” I got caught up in the importance of studying and recommending the need to build dynamic capabilities. More recently, I have written about the critically crucial dynamic ecosystem that “sits” in the interconnected business ecosystems of innovation, business, dynamics, and enterprise.

Applying Super Governance to the Interconnected Business Ecosystem.

Applying Super Governance to Interconnected Business Ecosystems

I have been working on further developing and creating a comprehensive framework for the Interconnected Business Ecosystem that addresses various aspects of ecosystem design, management, and governance.

I debated if I needed to add a super governance layer that ensures alignment, stability, and ethical practices across the entire ecosystem.

I have resisted this and have not added a further layer, as much of what is required from governance lies within any layer. I believe that within each of the four layers—Innovation, Business, Dynamic, and Enterprise—you add these suggestions to give them each a “super governance” managing aspect that can be “rolled up” in the final Enterprise layer if needed for any Enterprise Collaboration Board level resolution.

The Pitching of the Interconnected Business Ecosystem Framework

Building Interconnected Business Ecosystems

I am working to validate and expand on the value proposition of the Interconnected Business Ecosystem Framework and have tried to create, hopefully, a compelling pitch that will bring others on board to advance this initiative. I have published this pitch on both of my primary sites, discussing innovation, business, and ecosystems, as they both provide a combination effect for understanding this framework.

I initially called this “the hierarchy of business ecosystem needs,” which built out an interconnected framework of business ecosystems that give organizations a real alternative to how they operate today and in the future.

I provided a comprehensive series of outline papers as the introduction phase earlier this year, which provided the concepts forming a cohesive outline structure of how organizations should think through the future. Also, I provided an earlier view on my paul4innovating.com posting site of “pitching business ecosystems opens up the possibility of real change.”

We need to really open our thinking towards collaborative ecosystems. This is one of openly collaborating and co-creating in different Ecosystem structures and designs to provide a greater diversity of opinions, knowledge, and resources.

This “pooling or network effect” forms around more complex challenges to tackle, thus giving a more sustaining and hopefully greater value in solutions to the needs of their customers, markets, or areas of need.

I have recognized this needed rebranding- hierarchy has some negative connotations.

I have now entitled this The Interconnected Business Ecosystem Framework as it reflects the essence of what I believe this framework provides
