With the emergence of blockchain technology burgeoning at lightning speed, this robust technology also poses significant challenges to organizations. While most of these organizations are beginning to be interested in joining the wagon of incumbent players who are accelerating and leading the role of this potential and promising technology, their business executives are confronted with some ambiguous answers to questions such as:

1-How can they be responsive to the advent of this innovative technology?

2-How will they be able to create products with solutions that can successfully interact with the blockchain infrastructure? And so forth.

The Will To Thrive For More

There is an ongoing global blockchain education effort that aims to not only provide the general public with an understanding of what this radical and unique technology is and how it works, but also to shed light by providing a blueprint to business leaders in their endeavor to adopt this innovation.

Institutions are exploring Blockchain use cases in various areas of their business due to the technology’s security, transaction transparency, cost reduction, and speed, to name a few benefits.

This technology is paired with a long-term revolutionary capability that has the potential to reshape sector operations as well as change existing global economic structures. Blockchain is expected to make inroads into many industries in the near future due to its broad impact and high expectations for its future.

While blockchain infrastructures now include any type of value, such as money, property, arts, products, and services, the distributed ledger enables those transactions to be verified by the entire decentralized network, whether public or private. In this scenario, blockchain presents a challenge to any business organization or sector that continues to rely on third parties for transaction verification and trust.

Banks and insurance companies, for example, whose operations are based on the middleman model, with the middleman serving as a central role in ensuring trust between transacting parties, are now under tremendous pressure to innovate.

Organizations that operate centralized systems must be creative. They must reconsider what their future business value proposition will be. This includes the need for this organization to embrace the opportunities provided by this technology while also ensuring that they develop the necessary capabilities to manage them while staying current with industry trends.

It is now time for organizations to take decisive actions that will push the boundaries of what they already know and practice, and in doing so, education and expertise in understanding this technology will provide them with competence while enabling the creation of solutions that we all require.

In addition to ongoing Blockchain education for adoption and innovation, business executives must possess certain skills. Some of these specialized skills include design thinking, exploratory and conceptual reasoning, as demonstrated through basic research and the pursuit of opportunities by identifying societal problems in need of innovative invention.

For organizations to capitalize on and thrive on this opportunity, three sets of competencies are required: discovery, incubation, and acceleration. These three sets of capabilities involve activities that identify problems, develop solutions, and elaborate on additional opportunities that business executives can identify while conducting basic market research.

Understanding of Blockchain Dynamics

It is now safe to say that organizations should be aware of the dynamics of blockchain innovations and the disruptions that are occurring as a result of the increasing demand for this technology, where transaction boundaries are beginning to disappear and characterized by a high degree of decentralization.

The dynamics of blockchain are rapidly changing, as evidenced by the transition from Blockchain’s first, second, and now third generations.

It is claimed that the Bitcoin source code introduced the first generation of the Blockchain, which was only intended to support cryptocurrencies. The second generation of blockchain moved away from Bitcoin’s singular focus on cryptocurrencies, which only allowed multiple transactions to be coded, and toward a freely programmable blockchain, which began with Ethereum’s smart contracts for the implementation of all types of solution-oriented business logic.

The third blockchain generation, which we are now in, also known as Web 3.0, took center stage to introduce us to Decentralized Applications.

DApps, as they are commonly referred to, are composed of smart contracts and associated front-end applications that interact with blockchain on the backend.

All of these progressive changes are evidence of the dynamic-innovative nature of Blockchain technology. This acceleration over time allows us to gain this historical perspective, which organizations can use to gain a thorough understanding of this technology and its business implications.

Are you prepared for a disintermediated world that is built collaboratively without boundaries, driven by meaningfulness, and employs a shared economic ethos?

The business and socio-cultural worlds as we know them today will undoubtedly change dramatically in the near future. New revenue models enabled by connected platforms, in particular, will disrupt existing structures through the power of education and the dynamics of Blockchain innovation.
