Gear up and equip your organization for an entirely new competitive landscape
In The Ecosystem Economy: How to Lead in the New Age of Sectors Without Borders, two McKinsey & Company senior partners offer an incisive and eye-opening look at the emerging ecosystem economy and what it means for companies used to familiar sector siloes. In the book, you'll explore how the most successful companies in the new economy aren't the ones that have applied old-school best practices but, instead, have adopted entirely new mindsets and approaches for a fundamentally transforming market.
You'll also find:
- Explanations of why it's so important for companies to adopt a new approach in the face of a foundationally changing economy (and what they stand to gain)
- How the new ecosystem economy will continue to evolve and change, dissolving the borders between the traditional sectors of the economy
- A comprehensive ecosystem playbook that can be applied to firms of any size and in any sector
As the barriers between sectors and disciplines come down, organizations everywhere will need to reshape their thinking about value propositions, competition, partnership, organizational and operating models, and performance management. The Ecosystem Economy is your personal roadmap to navigating that new world. It's ideal for managers, executives, and other business leaders seeking fresh new strategies and practical approaches for markets that bear little resemblance to the ones that came before.

The barriers between traditional sectors of the economy are coming down. New digital technologies, business models, and regulatory frameworks are forcing leaders of companies to think outside their own siloes and reimagine what it means to operate in the new ecosystem economy.
In The Ecosystem Economy: How to Lead in the New Age of Sectors Without Borders, two McKinsey and Company senior partners deliver an exciting and insightful new take on the emerging ecosystem economy and what it entails for companies accustomed to familiar sector siloes. In the book, you'll discover how the most successful companies in the new economy are the ones that have left old-school best practices behind and adopted entirely new mindsets for the economy undergoing a foundational transformation.
Readers will find explanations of why it's so critical for companies to adopt new approaches to conducting business in the face of a transformed economy, what they stand to gain, and how the new ecosystem economy will continue to evolve and shift as it dissolves borders between traditional sectors of the economy.
