are largely in agreement that robotics and

robots and digital agents have displaced
significant numbers of both blue- and

create new jobs, industries and ways to
make a living, just as it has been doing

Rule #1
• Digital innovation is about transforming systems and processes – it’s less about shiny new
technologies than about dismantling or traversing traditional silos that inhibit collaboration
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital innovation does not require a large budget, a huge team, or a complex governance
structure – many leaders are operating on a shoe-string, but leverage enormous talent pools
Rule #2
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital innovation does require taking risks, fast failure and agile development processes that
lead to continuous improvement in products and services
Rule #3
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital leaders design for participation – they build products and services that invite
participation by end-users and they share their most valuable assets with key stakeholders
Rule #4
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital leaders give innovators permission to innovate – they encourage experimentation and
create time, funding and space to pursue innovative projects
Rule #5
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital leaders have overcome organizational and disciplinary barriers – in each case
significant cultural taboos were systematically challenged
Rule #6
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
• Digital innovation is constant and requires a strong organizational commitment – results are
commensurate with the level of commitment dedicated to maximizing the benefits
Rule #7
Rebooting the Public Square: Digital Innovation for Urban and Rural Municipalities
