Diffusing ICT Mindfulness
Professor Sonny Nwankwo
East London University
 

 

Prof Nwankwo focuses the dynamics of discontinuous innovation in broad generalities and the problematic of engagement as well as structural disconnections between multiple stakeholder groups. Problematising user-orientation in developmental processes, a new kind of subjectivity emerges; encouraging critical and reflective evaluation of societal utilization of ICT knowledge for the broader development of human and social capital – as part of purposeful strategy for creating a better future for mankind. This, essentially, represents a strategic inflection point in the context of the emergent reality of the knowledge economy.
