9. The Transformation from Knowledge to Creative Economy

10. Creativity – A Matter of Differentiation
“Creativity in the new economy isn’t
simply about selling but also about how
you will stand out from the crowded
online pack. How you present yourself as a
thinker in a world seeking new solutions in
ongoing transformation. Much of this is
going to be through a new way of thinking
that doesn’t align with the resounding
corporate or higher education culture and
how it has approached who fits into the
marketing discipline as a leader for the
past 65 years.” – Chapter 7: The
Transformation from Knowledge Economy
to Creative Economy in “Disruptive
Marketing, Disciplined Results”

11. Reputation Economics is the New Currency
“Those who can deliver creativity into actual disruptive
and disciplined execution plans have the potential to be
the future leaders of this new world. More than ever,
those with imagination are outpacing those with process.
Technology is driving this boom. Smartphones, cheap
sensors, and cloud computing have enabled a raft of new
Internet-connected services that are infiltrating the most
tech-averse industries—Uber is roiling the taxi industry;
Airbnb is disrupting hotels, Spotify has upended the
music mp3 model after Napster upended the Compact
Disc model. Disruption is the norm in commerce and thus
will be the norm in marketing. What business will
innovate and upend legacy titans in the next five years
probably hasn’t even been born yet. When it is, it will
come from the mind of a new creative, not the old MBA.”
- Chapter 7: The Transformation from Knowledge
Economy to Creative Economy in “Disruptive Marketing,
Disciplined Results”
