Bob Dick

Bob's presentation will explore the massive but slow paradigm shift currently under way. From a complexity standpoint, Bob will examine why very successful new-paradigm organisations are almost never imitated, even by their direct competitors.

The session will begin by briefly describing the evidence for the paradigm shift.  It will then overview some successful trail-blazing new-paradigm organisations.  Finally it will explore why they have so few imitators.
