Test-hub for tanker om den digitale økonomis veje og vildveje.

Den digitale økonomi lover en del den ikke uden videre kan holde. Når bølgerne går rigtigt højt så hører vi fortællingen om, hvordan internettet gør os mere forbundne, mere oplyste, mere kreative og handlekraftige.

People Business er titlen på et research- og bogprojekt, der tager afsæt i en kritik af disse påstande, der for det meste lanceres som rene selvfølgeligheder, som følger med de nye teknologier. Ikke fordi der er noget i vejen med idealerne, men fordi den måde vi indretter os på sammen med de nye teknologier hindrer os i at udleve værdifulde menneskelige egenskaber.

Foredraget er kort sagt et bud på, hvordan vi må re-designe den digitale økonomi på en måde, så forretningsmodeller, organisationer og produkter giver plads til menneskers udfoldelse og udvikling. Paradokset er, at for at få langt mere ud af den digitale økonomi må vi blive mere menneskelige. 

We’re ready with a brand new course.

Again we have teamed up with the digital agency Socialsquare to present a one-day intense course on Digital Leadership. But this time it’s especially designed for the public companies and institutions.

For more info, sign up, and the works -  go to the course website or contact us!

As an introduction to our fields of interest we have produced the magazine Emergent Value — A Report on the Internet of People.

In it, we take a look at open source organizations and the commons, privacy as a potential for innovation, and other forms of positive externality.

We are available for speaking engagements. Contact us for more information or a physical copy of the report.

Christian Ingemann

I come from a background busily combining economics and philosophy in order to understand the role of businesses in relation to the society that surrounds them. To me, enterprises, whether private or public, are the changemakers of the world and the field of organisational and leadership development has had my interest for several years.

My approach can be summed up in two words: explore & connect. Without an explorative baseline, research is reduced to a mere fact-finding mission. Without the ability to see connections, make them or change them, we lose the possibility of producing an impact.

To me, the ambition of a smarter and more sustainable society depends on the ability of our established businesses and institutions to learn from and connect with purpose-driven trailblazers, that often unheard of reservoir of ideas and tactical expertise.

From my background in philosophy and geography I have a keen interest in the way new technologies challenge and disrupt established social structures, such as organizations and business models, and in the way that disruptive waves can be navigated successfully.

I tend to explore these processes from below and my approach can be summed up in a single word: Action. Whether producing knowledge in the form of research, journalism and consultancy, or engaging the public through campaigns, community organizing and activism, I focus on activities that produce concrete, positive outcomes.

To me, entrepreneurship in its ideal state is a form of activism, changing the world from below. Likewise, successful activists have to take an entrepreneurial approach, making the most of whatever resources are available to create change.
