Article on "Getting Bigger" - in 21st century

Came across an article on "Getting bigger" subject: (ref: http://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/article_page.aspx?ar=1644&L2=18&L3=30 - registration required)

"Getting bigger
The world's largest companies are more successful than ever, but scale brings its own challenges." by Lowell L. Bryan

Here is some excerpts:
"Big companies must also learn to respond more quickly to the intensified competition and inherent uncertainty of today's global economy. No matter how good their current capabilities, they can't do so alone. According to "From push to pull: The next frontier of innovation," by John Seely Brown and John Hagel III, companies should collaborate, through a broad range of global process and innovation networks, to mobilize the tangible and intangible resources of other companies. In this respect, emerging "pull" approaches to leveraging these resources are proving essential."

Well said!

Recalling some statement from 管理大師杜拉克說:“當前社會不是一場技術、也不是一場軟件、速度的革命,而是一場觀念上的革命。”
