Meer over het boek

The global financial crisis of 2008 highlighted the need for a new approach to governing the economy, emphasizing transparency, integrity, and collaboration in financial services. As the crisis spread to other sectors, including environmental and sovereign debt issues, it became evident that traditional institutions were struggling to adapt. However, amidst the turmoil, there is optimism as a new model of economic and social innovation emerges worldwide. This model empowers individuals with passion and expertise to leverage Web-based tools for creating a more prosperous, just, and sustainable world. Drawing parallels to collaborative projects like Wikipedia and Linux, there is a historic opportunity to harness collective human ingenuity to reshape institutions for future generations. This follow-up to a best-selling management book presents a game plan for addressing global challenges through collaborative innovation across various fields such as healthcare, education, and energy. It showcases dynamic innovators and movements that are transforming industries and argues that the potential for collaboration extends beyond software and media to include government, education, and healthcare. These opportunities are not mere fantasies but tangible possibilities enabled by the principles of wikinomics.
