Processes Required to Work in Concert
4 RULES:
Strategy is drawn from a wider range of disciplines;
Intelligence, Experience and “Growth Hacking”.
Technology is now table-stakes.
Deep and continuous investment in consumer intelligence and data will define us.
Massively distributed skills and deep, constant, agile collaboration.
From disciplines to ‘pods’.
From waterfall to agile or scrum.
A nimbler approach: continuously iterate technology and experience based on findings.
