This document is a presentation by neXt Curve, a consulting and venture capital firm focused on advising others on building a better digital future. The presentation discusses how organizations need to adapt to increasing industry digitization and the accelerating pace of change by becoming "alpha organizations" with the key disciplines of being innovative, efficient, adaptable, agile, and competitive. It addresses three topics: the need for organizations to be flexible and efficient like water, what defines an alpha organization, and how organizations need to get comfortable with constant change. The presentation encourages attendees to learn more by visiting neXt Curve's website or contacting the company directly.
