Wikinomics (Review and Analysis of Tapscott and Williams' Book)
()
About this ebook
This complete summary of Don Tapscott and Anthony Williams' book "Wikinomics" shows that a new and much more collaborative way to do business is emerging as a powerful force. Companies are opening up their internal processes to input and suggestions from outsiders who bring fresh ideas and new competencies into the equation. One of the best-known examples of this trend is the open-source online encyclopedia, Wikipedia. It runs on a “wiki” – Hawaiian for “quick” – software which enables any Wikipedia viewer to edit the contents of a Web page. Therefore, taking a cue from this, this new wave of mass collaboration in business has been dubbed “Wikinomics”. In their book, the authors highlight how the new age of mass collaboration in business has arrived and you can either decide to get on the bandwagon and reap as many benefits as possible or you risk getting left behind. This summary reveals the advantages of this new approach and why you should join in.
Added-value of this summary:
• Save time
• Understand key concepts
• Expand your knowledge
To learn more, read "Wikinomics" and discover what this new age of mass collaboration can do for your future business.

Book Abstract
Main Idea
A new and much more collaborative way to do business is emerging as a powerful force. Companies are opening up their internal processes to input and suggestions from outsiders who bring fresh ideas and new competencies into the equation. The end result is value gets created in refreshingly new and original ways. This is the essence of mass collaboration
, and it has the potential to have a major impact on corporations of all shapes and sizes in the 21st century.
One of the best-known examples of this trend is the open-source online encyclopedia, Wikipedia. It runs on a wiki
– Hawaiian for quick
– software which enables any Wikipedia viewer to edit the contents of a Web page. Therefore, taking a cue from this, this new wave of mass collaboration in business has been dubbed Wikinomics
.
The new age of mass collaboration in business has already arrived. You either get on the bandwagon and harness this phenomena to maximum effect or you risk getting left behind by those who do. The choice is yours.
Due to deep changes in technology, we are entering a new age where people participate in the economy like never before. This new participation has reached a tipping point where new forms of mass collaboration are changing how goods and services are invented, produced, marketed and distributed on a global basis. We call this wikinomics.
