be written as
– <math>y = ax^k,!<math>

• In reality, the market is nothing but a directed network
• No manager or firm can succeed or fail alone, customers, managers
and teams are inherently linked together in social networks.
• The notion of interdependence : managers constitute hubs and
nodes of the network, organization learning will filter down and out
through the network as a whole.
• six degrees of separation : everyone in the world can be reached
through a short chain of acquaintances.
• Change is marked by "phase transitions" from states of disorder to
order: "cascading failure“ and “emergent” threats .
