Resources

Throughout the playbook we tend to avoid making recommendations, and try not to go too deep on any subjects so you can cover more ground quickly. Lots of further reading links are provided so you can go as far as you like. Consider the Neoco Playbook like the entrances of many rabbit holes – we help you poke your head in and crawl to the first branch in the tunnel, where you can then follow the links and references if you want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes...

The new revolutionaries in industry (those we call neocos) are ever-evolving entities so this playbook needs to be a living document if it is to remain relevant as our world develops. Your input is the way to achieve this so please comment on what you see here. What is missing? What is redundant? What is outdated or wrong?
