5. What if ...
Companies start to insource creative
tasks and once again establish their
own communication agencies
in-house?
Like Samsung does with Cheil
http://www.cheil.com
6. What if ...
Agencies work purely on the principles
of self-organisation and motivation
where projects are pitched internally,
employees decide what project they
work on and what role they take?
Like Valve does:

Valve_Handbook_LowRes.pdf
7. What if ...
Agencies only have a core team of
project managers plus a strong
network of partners and freelancers?
8. What if ...
Agencies manage and nurture their
community of partners and freelancers
in order to broaden their portfolio and
improve capacity?
Like IBM does with Liquid
9. What if ...
Agencies excel at managing
cooperations with suppliers,
specialists competitors and
other clients divisions?
10. What if ...
Agencies receive fees based on quality
of the output or performance instead of
time spent on the job?
11. What if ...
Agencies work more closely with
start-ups and receive shares for
taking care of all their
communication tasks?
12. What if ...
Agencies bring brands and start-ups
together and help to create compelling
brand cases?
13. What if ...
Agencies develop and market their
own products, content or intellectual
properties instead of doing
commisioned work only?
Like Anomaly, Let There Be Dragons, Made by Many do:

14. What if ...
Agencies would develop product and
service concepts for clients and receive
licensing fees?
15. What if ...
Agencies would be organised as
collective, cooperatives, associations,
partnership, sociocracies or institutes?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sociocracy
16. What if ...
Agencies would be loosely organized
like a network of like-minded
professionals
Like The Dark Horse has done
http://www.thedarkhorse.de/we-are-people/
17. What if ...
Agencies would embrace agile ways of
working (iterative, rapid prototyping,
Scrum, Kanban) and abandon linear
waterfall processes?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agile_software_development
18. What if ...
Agencies would act like start-ups?

mirren-new-business-conference-2012
25. What if ...
Agencies would become educators/
universities that train new talent on
projects?
Like Hyper Island does
http://www.hyperisland.com
26. What if ...
The current value chain breaks and
highly efficient creative factories take
care of all production and adaption
issues
Similar to Tag Worldwide

27. What if ...
The importance of creative work
further declines while administration,
consulting, compliance, security and
legal issues gain ground?
