The Top 10 Behaviors of Winning Organizations

We are at a critical point in time for organizations to leverage digital technologies in a way that leads them into a future that allows businesses to keep up with changing conditions. This must be accomplished with increased revenue or market share and with few negative impacts to partners and employees.

I would like to drill down into ten practices that will differentiate organizations in the next several years while taking full advantage of new digital behaviors and emerging technologies. These behaviors will likely be assisted by agile and self organizing processes leveraging automated agent based personal assistants.
