Introduction

The world has changed – consumers are connected and empowered like never before. Firstly, driven by the internet, then mobile and now social. To further complicate the landscape, digital channels have proliferated (see fig 1 for landscape), consumer expectation has changed and business models turned on their head.

Who would have thought 10 years ago that…………..

• Uber would become the largest Private Hire company – but own no cars
• Air BNB would become the largest Private Hire company – but own no rooms
• Amazon would become the largest Retailer – but own no outlets (until recently)
• Facebook would become the largest Media Company – but own no content

And to add to the above, 50% of the workforce by 2020 will be millennial (born between 1982 and 2000) and are digital natives, mobile first. It’s time to think differently to #disrupt or be #disrupted
