Companies work in complex, overlapping, constantly changing environments. Today’s customer landscape is not tomorrow’s. Yesterday’s star employees are not today’s.

In this session, participants gain a tool to help assess the forest as well as the trees. Participants learn a simple, yet robust, methodology for mapping business ecosystems.
