Steve Denning and Miriam Schwarz give an overview of the webinar series on re-imagining management for the digital age.

Getting clear on the purpose of the firm:
Starting with why?
- Instead of giving primacy to the maximizing shareholder value, the goal of the firm is to create value for customers, along with a business model that generates profits as a result.
- Instead of starting from what the firm can produce that might be sold to customers, firms work backwards from what customers need and then figure out how that might be delivered in a sustainable way.

Structure of the Firm
- Instead of bureaucracy where individuals report to bosses, the firm mostly deploys self-organizing team-based arrangements;
- Instead of the steep hierarchies of authority of industrial era-firms, digital firms tend to be organized in horizontal networks of competence.
4
Strategy
- Instead of strategy limited to protecting the existing business, strategy is dynamic, interactive, and value-creating
- Instead of limiting themselves to what the firm itself can provide, the firm often mobilizes other firms to help meet user needs.
