Abstract
In recent MIT CISR research, organizations saw their most challenging strategic goals as being dependent on the actions of other organizations. Ecosystem governance, like good corporate governance, is a key to achieving these goals. Executives in our research described three governance approaches for digital ecosystems that varied along a spectrum, from centralized, which we have termed Alpha; to federated, or Representative; to decentralized, or Liquid. In this briefing, we introduce these approaches and discuss when ecosystems should adopt more decentralized governance approaches to grow value.
