2. Background
All companies are moving from the
material world towards the immaterial world.
This means we are sliding from scarcity to
abundance, from control to sharing.
The intangible rules the tangible.
Empathy rules physical strength.
Community rules cash.
Data rules physical location.
3. Three rules
Play with
the flows
Learn to
recognise the
flows that
surround you.
See the world
as flows
Make business
from the flows
Innovate by
melting the
flows together.
Stir the world
around you by
guiding the flows.

WHAT COULD BE

What emotions,
knowledge and talent
your customers,
employees, wannabe
customers have. List
them all here.
E.g. Caregiver knows if the
patient is on a good
mood or not.
People know if their
neighbourhood feels safe.
How can you get access
to this? E.g. survey,
community, rating,
purchase history,
physical location.
What we offer to have
access to these? It can be
either intangible like
openness, sense of
belonging.
Or e.g. a platform for
discussion.

Frame 2
Start playing with the
ownership. Do you need
to control everything?
Take your time. Typically
this is one of the most
difficult tasks as
ownership is so firmly
embedded in business
thinking. Customers’
don’t need to own the
service but their
relationship with it
changes if they have a
sense of ownership.
Map the process. First
the major parts and then
un-bundling if needed.
Chronologically from left
to right. Put them all first
down here.
