Organizations must knock down silos of information in order to get the right information to the right places. Where speed of decision and speed of action are crucial, very careful decisions will have to be made about what to share and what to hold close. 2. Organizations must begin to think differently about things they assume to know quite well, such as customers. Even though organizations will get better in understanding customers, it will be difficult to keep pace with rapid changes in the nature of customer demand. 3. The implications of almost limitless connectivity will change how organizations must think about, and do, almost everything. Everything—from connectivity in smart manufacturing, to medical schools holding classes for thousands of students simultaneously around the world, to city management, where a crisis in one sector can be immediately identified, communicated, and reacted to in seconds—will affect everything else, both for better and for worse.
