And that problem is that we are doing it all wrong. We are using the wrong model for today’s quickly changing and networked world. We are in a historical place in the evolution of American business.

The good news is that each of us has an opportunity to position ourselves and our companies to be very productive and profitable in the new era that is emerging. The bad news is that there aren’t many existing models of how to build an organization or how to lead people and organizations in the new Knowledge Age. But they are beginning to appear.
