His conclusion is that there will be a profound shift in the way we perceive. Because the business value of knowledge has plummeted, the era of the vaunted knowledge economy has not arrived. However, its social value has soared. Any business, school, or public institution needs to know how we socialize our access to knowledge, because that is the answer to how we can attract employees and students again and remain competitive and valuable in a rapidly evolving world. Companies must build cultures that inspire autonomy, learning, and collaboration. In business, innovation is seen as an AD hoc event or dependent on external import. However, successful businesses often succeed in making innovation part of their DNA. The best solution for companies is to build their own appeal so they can retain talent. Price also focuses on the future of work, how we work now on top of the 19th century model and what businesses should do to adapt to today's increasing automation and introduction of artificial intelligence technologies. Sir Ken Robinson comments on Price's book from all angles, OPEN is a book that will open your mind to some of the real impacts of the digital technologies that support our living and learning in the 21st century. David's presentation was informative and insightful, adding real value to the conference. -- Ashfield Health
