ICountant Will Your Social Strategy Change The Game?

Those who do extraordinary things change the game for those that don't. Changing the game for others means you do something which changes the rules of the game before those following the old rules know it.

Apple changed the game for mobile device manufacturers and for mobile users. Apple is now attempting… Continue

ICountant Ideas Connect Us More Than Relationships

I was struck by this blog post today by Hutch Carpenter entitled Why Ideas are Core to Enterprise 2.0. He talks about all the hype about social media and asserts that it is really ideas that link communities together. He says:

More on Consumption Capital

Blog about China 2009 no. 4

I just got word from my friend in intangibles, Jonathan Low. Like me, he was in Beijing last month (read Aug. 2009) as a speaker. I think it is safe to say that he also thought that some questions remained unanswered with regards to the Chinese “innovation” Consumption Capital.

Today he pointed to this… Continue

So, was Beijing ready?

Blog about China 2009 no. 3

A couple of weeks ago (read Aug. 2009) I asked if Beijing was ready for IC. In short, the answer is:

2) It seemed like one of the conference purposes was to promote Prof. Chen Yu’s new economic theory “Consumption Capitalization”. It advocates the use of three capitals in today’s economy:… Continue
