Perhaps you have already noticed that a fundamentally new period of
IT is now upon us--the era of "adaptation"--in which our systems
learn from their experiences with us, and then deliver this
learning back to us in ways that make us all smarter and more
productive. Emerging from this era of adaptation is a radically new
phenomenon that goes well beyond the bounds and categories that
have come before it, called "the learning layer."
The learning layer is a merging of people and systems that
"automatically learns," "evolves, "and" integrates "into the very"
fabric "of your business. The learning layer takes its lessons from
the way the brain works, taps into the cognitive surplus of your
organization, and leads to possibilities for attaining whole new
levels of business productivity, innovation, and sustainable
advantages. It makes the dream of the truly adaptive enterprise a
reality.
Author Steven Flinn draws on his experience and expertise as a
senior global executive, CIO, strategist, scientist, and inventor,
to provide an in-depth look at the learning layer and how it
promises to transform the performance of your organization.
"The Learning Layer" is written for business executives who
want to begin staking out opportunities for taking their businesses
to the next level of performance, as well as for practitioners in
fields such as IT, knowledge management, organizational learning,
and business innovation. And business and technology futurists who
seek to understand, and extrapolate from, the next major wave of IT
capabilities will find much to consider in these pages.
