Will Enterprise 2.0 Drive Management Innovation ?
"What is today called Enterprise 2.0 can also be seen as the emergent stage of the intersection of significant advances in information technology, management science applied to business process and the analysis and control of operational activities. These forces and factors are converging in today’s workplaces, wherein a continuous flow of information is the rule rather than the exception. Thus, as Hamel asserts, it’s useful if not essential to cast a critical eye on the assumptions about static sets of tasks and knowledge arranged in specific (and relatively static) constellations on an organization"

The 2.0 label is said to denote a more interactive, less static environment. Whether we like it or not, we are passing from an era in which things were assumed to be controllable, able to be deconstructed and then assembled into a clear, linear, always replicable and thus static form to an era characterized by a continuous flow of information.
-
I believe that we need to revisit the fundamental principles of work design AND the basic rules used to configure hierarchical organizations in which the primary assumption is that knowledge is put to use in a vertical chain of decision-making

Top 10 Gary Hamel Insights
I had the good fortune to hear Gary Hamel of London Business School's Management Innovation Lab speak on the first day of the Spigit Innovation Summit on August 13, 2009.
Here are the top ten insights that I captured from Gary Hamel's speech:
Gary Hamel: Adaptability is the Key to Survival in the Post-Establishment Age
The point Gary Hamel drives home is that our business and economic environment has irrevocably shifted toward higher volatility and accelerated change. The sundering of companies from healthy industry positions to crisis mode in relatively short order demonstrates the need for updating management philosophies.

Adaptability is a critical strategy. It means that companies pivot as they learn new information about their markets, competitors and changes in customer behaviors. As noted in a recent Wall Street Journal article noted, companies can try more ideas faster and less expensively than ever:
Business Strategy Expert Gary Hamel: Ten Tips from the Top
Recognized by Fortune magazine as “the world’s leading strategy expert in business today”,
Gary Hamel has outlined ten design rules for innovation for companies intent on generating sustained wealth in the future:
Corporate apocalypse - Management Today
The bomb that has blown up the heart of the world's financial system was not primarily financial. It's true that finance provided the high explosive in the shape of the structured vehicles, collateralised debt obligations (CDOs) and derivatives devised by the rocket scientists of Wall Street and the City. But it needed a detonator to set them off: the unfit-for-purpose management model that has governed the way our companies work for the last 40 years.
-
This is the challenge for Management 2.0: reorienting management from
compliance to creativity, from flogging efficiencies out of existing
resources to generating new ones, from zero-sum to positive-sum by
recognising, as Hamel says, the commonsense proposition that in the long
term the corporation can only prosper if employees, suppliers, the
community and indeed the planet do too. -
First, many of the 'grand challenges' put forward in the discussions -
the need for companies to articulate a purpose beyond making money (a
conference near-consensus), distributed leadership and strategy- making,
the fostering of community and citizenship, building trust - are not new
at all. It's more that they have been driven to the periphery of
management concerns by the treadmill of Management 1.0. - 7 more annotations...

This may not be a detailed design spec for a 21st-century management system, but I doubt it’s far off. Argue with me if you like, but I’m willing to bet that Management 2.0 is going to look a lot like Web 2.0.
