<p><b>From the Inside Flap</b><br><p>SILOS KILL COMPANIES. They've always been a drag on growth, but the liabilities they create have only become more pronounced as the world becomes more connected, fast-moving, and innovative. Despite this, silos remain stubbornly persistent in most companies around the globe, stifling energy and reducing adaptability. <p>In <i>Boundless</i>, a team of innovative digital and design thinking veterans delivers a new mindset and design paradigm for a newly decentralized and digital-first world. The authors show you how to optimize your company, not for the accumulation and protection of resources within controlled environments (silos), but rather for the exact opposite. You'll learn how to create a situation in which resources flow freely across networks, ecosystems, and communities, unlocking unheard-of opportunities and potential in your firm. <p>The book provides leaders and employees within your organization the tools and partners they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive and fast-moving marketplace. You'll discover the seven principles of the Boundless paradigm, including Connection, Integration, Decentralization, Mobility, Continuity, Autonomy, and Holistic Success. You'll also find out how each of these principles maps to a crucial technological advance, like digital platforms, blockchain and decentralized finance, artificial intelligence (AI), robotics and autonomous systems, cloud computing, social networks, the Internet of Things (IoT), immersive tech, application programming interfaces (APIs), and more. <p>Perfect for managers, executives, directors, and other business leaders seeking new strategies for flexibility, adaptability, and innovation in their organizations, <i>Boundless</i> will also prove invaluable to product leaders and other creative professionals who want to help build the companies they always dreamed of being a part of.</p>
