The Experience Economy Author, Joe Pine discusses Customer Value on the Digital Frontier

Joe Pine: “What you’re doing is that you’re shifting from thinking of them as constraints to thinking of them as resources. When you say that time is an element that costs our customers that’s a constrained view, instead of recognizing that customers have time that they want to spend inside of experiences.” – excerpt from today’s podcast.

Joe has 2 new books out this summer, Infinite Possibility and The Experience Economy, Updated Edition. The Experience Economy identifies a shift in the business world and many of the items discussed are just being realized today. In fact, the idea of staging experiences to leave a memorable and lasting impression is now more relevant than ever. In Infinite Possibility, Pine and Korn provide a new tool The Multiverse™ that helps your organization to search the infinite possibility of value creation that lies on the digital frontier. The Multiverse consists of eight different realms: Reality, Virtuality, Augmented Reality, Alternate Reality, Warped Reality, Augmented Virtuality, Physical Virtuality, and Mirrored Virtuality. You may want to watch this short video on on the Multiverse before listening, Value on the Digital Frontier.

If the Multiverse is formed around the concepts of

  1. Space, No Space
  2. Time, No Time
  3. Matter, No Matter

would the Multiverse of PDCA consists of

  1. Plan, No Plan
  2. Do, No Do
  3. Check, No Check
  4. Act, No Act

I apologize Dr. Deming, it was just a thought.
