Enterprise Redefinition

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Why must companies today be redefined rather than merely changed? As AI democratizes knowledge, analysis, and execution, the nature of competition is shifting from a race for efficiency to a race to define value itself. What is required is not incremental improvement, nor digital transformation alone. It is the continuous questioning of five dimensions — Purpose, Business, Organization, Capital, and Leadership — and the redesign of the enterprise itself. The author calls this practice Enterprise Redefinition. The third volume of the Future Value Theory series moves from theory (why) to practice (how): the Enterprise Redefinition Framework, a seven-step process, a maturity model, and the Enterprise Redefinition Canvas that leaders can put to work tomorrow. An enterprise is not a machine. It is a living organism that keeps evolving. The future is not something we inherit. It is something we continuously redefine and create. Naoki Kadowaki is the founder and CEO of VURA Capital Innovation Holdings. After two decades leading enterprise transformation at IBM and serving as CEO of private-equity portfolio companies, he now works on Enterprise Redefinition and teaches AI and management at Keio University's business school.
