It discusses the importance of strategic knowledge creation where new business innovation across different technologies and industries forms dynamic business ecosystems through co-creation and co-evolution and the role of the formation of business communities and holistic leadership, in which practitioners differentiate and balance their application of centralized, distributed, and dialectical leadership according to circumstances and across the formal and information organization and the psychological boundary.
