Social Paradigm Changes
The value of informal enterprise My open source cure for brain cancer
Stanford Social Innovation Review, Abby Margolis CNN, Salvatore Iaconesi, November 25, 2012
November 1, 2012
“How can established business and organizations col-
laborate with informal enterprise? What other unpac-
kaged and unregulated activities might translate into
prosperous revenue streams for a new economy?
As companies (or even governments) look for new
opportunity, they often focus on “emerging” markets
as the next untapped market. However, this might be
the wrong approach. In today’s world, simply extending
business into new frontiers is not enough.”

Governance Paradigm Changes
Management theory was hijacked in the 80s. Economic bricolage
We’re still suffering the fallout The Wall Street Journal, Matt Ridley, November 26, 2012
The Guardian, Simon Caulkin, November 12, 2012
“The answer is that management in the 1980s was sub-
ject to an ideological hijack by Chicago economics that
put at the heart of governance a reductive «economic
man» view of human nature needing to be bribed or
whipped to do their exclusive job of maximising share-
holder returns. Embedded in the codes, these assump-
tions now have the status of unchallenged truths.”

Risk of robot uprising wiping out human Looking to industry for the next digital
race to be studied disruption
BBC, November 19, 2012 The New York Times, Steve Lohr, November 23, 2012
“The company (GE) plans to increase that work force
of computer scientists and software developers to 400,
and to invest $1 billion in the center by 2015. The buil-
dup is part of G.E’s big bet on what it calls the “indus-
trial Internet,” bringing digital intelligence to the physical
world of industry as never before.”
Here come the humanoids. There go U.S.
jobs
CNet, Paul Sloan, November 12, 2012
“Rethink Robotics founder Rodney Brooks took to the
stage at the Techonomy conference here to talk about
the wonders of his new robot, Baxter, which is designed
to work on factory floors doing dull and necessary tasks.
He costs just $22,000 and works for what amounts to
$4 an hour.”
“The scientists said that to dismiss concerns of a poten-
tial robot uprising would be «dangerous».[...] robots and
computers become smarter than humans, we could find
ourselves at the mercy of «machines that are not mali-
cious, but machines whose interests don’t include us».”

Boostzone WebReview on the Future of the World of Work - December 2012
- 1. Bilingual document (US, FR) 23 Quote of December 2012 “ New scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.» Max Planck (1858-1947) German theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory Editorial This is your monthly Must-Read on the future of management and the world of work. The «perfect storm» which shaped evolution of the world of work - generated by sea changes in technologies, economy, society, governance in all its forms - is forcing Management to change. In order not to be submerged, the manager has to be «augmented», that is to say he has to use and master new tools and new knowledge at his disposal. It is a giant challenge that all executives face. This review is a way to help you. It hands over to you the summary of the best articles we found during the last month on these changes. Thus, the Boostzone Institute aims to become your reference «curator», that is to say to select and enhance the information for you. Therefore any comment helping us to improve it is more than welcome.
