Author Description

Value Creation and the Internet of Things describes value delivery and consumption, exploring the mechanisms by which new value is captured and created in enterprises dedicated to competing and prospering in this new environment. Manu revisits existing theories and frameworks of intrinsic motivation, explores their validity in the age of co-creation, and synthesizes a new framework to capture the changes in the mind-sets of individuals and organizations. The book provides a context in which the Internet of Things will soon become mainstream, forcing organizations to re-evaluate their value creation methodologies in light of new consumer behavior and expectations.
