'A thought-provoking look at the technology that is changing the
world of business and the benefits, pitfalls, and challenges for
society as a whole.' - Kenneth I. Chenault, former chief executive
officer, American Express Company Throughout the twentieth century,
technology and economics drove a dominant logic: bigger was almost
always better. It was smart to scale up - to take advantage of
classic economies of scale. But in the unscaled economy, size and
scale have become a liability. Today's most successful companies -
Uber, Airbnb, Amazon, Salesforce - have defied the traditional
'economies of scale' approach by renting scale instead of spending
vast amounts of money building it. And a new generation of upstarts
is using artificial intelligence to automate tasks that once
required expensive investment, enabling them to grow big without
the bloat of giant organisations. In Unscaled, Hemant Taneja
convincingly shows how the unscaled economy is remaking massive,
deeply-rooted industries and opening up fantastic possibilities for
entrepreneurs, imaginative companies and resourceful individuals.
Beyond that, it can be the model for solving some of the world's
greatest problems, including climate change and soaring healthcare
costs, potentially reversing many of the ills brought on by mass
industrialization. The unscale wave has only just started. To
succeed in business today, companies, CEOs and leaders everywhere
must unlearn what they have been taught - they must embrace an
unscaled mindset.
