Ultimately, a company's ability to capitalize on the 21st century business mega-shift rests on two abilities: - Understanding as clearly as possible the new drivers; how they interact with each other; and how they impact a company's business success
- Implementing as efficiently as possible innovative new strategies, business models and market-transforming products
