Exponential Organizations
Salim Ismail
A business strategist argues that new organizational models leveraging technology and community can achieve disproportionately large impact with dramatically fewer resources than traditional organizations.
Key takeaways
- A New Organizational Model for Exponential Growth
- Massive Transformative Purpose
- Leveraging External Assets Over Internal Ownership
- Community and Engagement as Organizational Assets
- Case Studies of Rapid Exponential Growth
- Identifying Externalizable Resources in Your Own Organization
Action checklist
- Identify one resource you could access (staff, assets, community) instead of owning outright
- Explore one way technology could let a small team achieve outsized impact in your business
Final takeaway
Identify one resource your organization currently owns and maintains internally that could instead be accessed through community or external partnership — Ismail's consistent argument throughout the book is that this kind of deliberate shift toward externally-leveraged organizational design, guided by genuinely inspiring organizational purpose, represents a significant, increasingly viable alternative to traditional, internally-focused organizational models for achieving disproportionately rapid growth and impact.
