Publisher's Summary

Today, not only is everything digital getting faster, cheaper, and smaller at an exponential rate, we also have the Internet. When these two revolutions - one in technology and the other in communications - joined, an explosive force was unleashed that changed the very nature of innovation. And with any change, we have seen many strategic blunders and extraordinary learning curves along the way.

At last, in Whiplash, Joi Ito and Jeff Howe have distilled nine organizing principles for navigating and surviving this tumultuous period. These principles give us a roadmap on how to thrive no matter what industry we're in.

With Whiplash, two great thinkers tell us how to adapt and succeed in today's unpredictable marketplace.

Digitization and beyond

A great read. The book questions the current systems across a range of fields and emphasizes resilience, tenacity, and creativity as key drivers of success, both global (economic) and local (personal). Failure of education to embrace the reality of fast-changing technology driven world is one of the first avenues that needs to be rethought. Instead of stock-piling knowledge, the system should be giving learners opportunities to pull knowledge from the pile when needed and connect this knowledge to the leaner's interests. The world needs a deeper foundational shift -- a new way of thinking.

half baked ideas and semi truths!

The narratives in this boosk are probably true. But I doubt that the bias here is to make some money peddling this stuff on Amazon. Not worth the money

Somewhat interesting

Nerd stuff too heavily focused on MIT and over enthusiasm in te the 'new' possibilities technology and collaboration brings. Nothing new

In the spirit of reconciliation, Audible acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
