Empowering the Enterprise

Alf Chattell

Chapter 8 in Creating Value in the Digital Era, 1998, pp 190-219 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Digital-Era enterprise is a ‘knowledge network’ at work. It is engaged in the continuous search for what makes sense in a changing world. Its ability to do so, and stay ahead of fast-advancing competition, depends on the rate at which it can generate and apply new knowledge — in all its many forms. Its core capabilities are knowledge-intensive. They are expressed through the company’s ability to generate the best insights, design the most imaginative solutions, and assemble the best ideas, knowledge, resources, skills and components in ways that bring compelling solutions to customers. Its core resources are continuously regenerating human and knowledge capital. As such, the Digital-Era enterprise sees competitive progress as a learning process — a process of changing perceptions of what is possible, and what is the best way to do things, and as a process of increasing its ability to achieve what was previously impossible.
