Building a COINs Strategy for Education, Economic, and Workforce Development
Collaborate: Leading Regional Innovation Clusters - A Report from the Council on Competitiveness, identifies three important components of 21st Century innovation based prosperity:
- Conversations
- Collaboration
- Capacity
The Swarm Creativity Framework (below) is a tool to guide education, economic, and workforce development strategy for competitive regional advantage.
Taken together, the Council's directives, the Framework, and "Strategic Doing" - a simple process developed in I-Open to move ideas to action quickly (below), enable every community to build a COINs-collaborative innovation network strategy for creative, thriving local economies.
From the perspective of the Collective Intelligence Genome introduced at the COINs 2009 Opening Keynote by Dr. Thomas W. Malone, MIT Center for Collective Intelligence, this outlines the What, Why, and How - the Who, is all of us!
