Ray Ozzie appeared on the Invest Like the Best podcast to discuss the future of intelligent machines and organizational structures. During the episode, he recommended The Nature of the Firm by Ronald Harry Coase for anyone seeking a foundational education on enterprises, suggesting that readers go all the way back to the 1930s to study the work. Ozzie noted that in those historical days, the large traditional company was all that existed, and he used the book's framework to contrast past corporate models with the increasingly networked and decentralized organizational forms seen in the modern business landscape. By pointing listeners toward Coase's classic text, Ozzie emphasized the enduring value of understanding foundational economic theories of the firm when analyzing contemporary technological and corporate evolution.

    “I know this is a little counterintuitive, but if anybody really wants an education, go all the way back to the 30s and read The Nature of the Firm by Ron Coase. In those days, the big company was all there was”
