Abstract
Knowledge creation and knowledge are the primary sources of productivity, profitability and company growth in the twenty-first century. Our approach is to use brain-based metaphors and models to better understand what kind of services we should be able to design and produce now and in the future. We propose new kind of services that will be able to imitate, emulate and support the mind structures of individuals, groups, teams, companies and organisations in dynamic business situations. The services should support human memory systems, motivational systems, interpreting systems and automatic systems and their sub-systems as they are actively present in living human systems. We have named our approach as Mind Systems Imitation and Emulation Framework. Different engineering disciplines will be jointly responsible for developing and applying such services now and in the future. As an example, a Democratic Company Culture tool Accord is described.
