Convergence

Ecosystem Growth Strategies

In a world of relentless disruption, the old rules of growth no longer work.
Linear playbooks, one-size-fits-all strategies, and sequential thinking are failing even the strongest organizations. The companies that thrive today aren’t just adapting, they’re building dynamic business ecosystems where customers, partners, data, structures, and people evolve together.

Convergence: Ecosystem Growth Strategies is the definitive guide for leaders who refuse to merely survive the global reset.

Drawing on more than 15 years of cross-industry research and hands-on transformation work, Dr. Amelie Villeneuve reveals the hidden patterns behind the three massive waves of change digital transformation, sustainability strategy, and artificial intelligence (AI), and shows exactly how high-performing organizations are winning in the era of business disruption and innovation.
