This document discusses shifts that are occurring in platform making. These shifts include moving from organizing activity to aligning with a shared purpose, from consumers to community co-generation, from management to curation and culture, from rule-based systems to design-based systems, from being finance-driven to being rich data-driven, from focusing on shareholder value to stakeholder value, and from decision power to empowering people to take action. The document advocates for these shifts in how platforms are created and structured.
