Training, lists and that sinking feeling

10 June 2013

I’ve been reflecting on the training business a lot lately. Partly because I’ve been experimenting with some ideas at Edges of Work. So much training seems to lure us in with offers of highly structured content. I get it. There’s something very alluring about that promise of “You will learn…”

Spiders and spying

10 June 2013

It’s been quite frustrating following the coverage of the PRISM scheme to monitor internet activity. I see again how people at the top of any hierarchy seem to think the answer to all issues is for them to have more power and control. The foolish objections of the citizenry are

Just remembering…

5 April 2013

I get to use the Cambridge University Library these days which I have to say is a pretty nice privilege if you can swing it. Perhaps that’s why i seem to be reminiscing more about student days. I seem to remember that back in the day, we students seemed to

Stuck

5 April 2013

That thing where you have this really meaty topic you want to write about. It’s so meaty that you think it will need a really long post. So you never write the thing. That.

The linearity of books vs the non-linearity of intelligence

16 February 2013

Donald Clark observes Knowledge is not held in our minds alphabetically or in a linear or hierarchical menu structure. Knowledge is held in different ways procedural, episodic semantic, and called up into working memory, but it is fundamentally a neural network, physically and representationally. A hyperlinked representation of knowledge is

Report writers

16 February 2013

Government seems to reverence a particular kind of cleverness. The lawyerly sort, that can write precise reports and prescribe best practices. I would dearly like to see some of the sages that write these things put to a public test. I want them to be put in a role play.

Pomposity

16 February 2013

Pomposity is a wonderfully plosive word. I’ve been thinking lately that the first physical manifestation of pomposity is a failure to breathe out freely. It’s often an unconscious defence and it’s effect is literally to puff the perpetrator up. I suspect that pomposity doesn’t start out with the intention of

Training for surprise

16 February 2013

I have to agree with Harold Jarche: In the network age learning is conversation. But aren’t training courses more like “exhibit halls”? They are prepared in advance checked for quality control and delivered with the best look & feel. Conversations are messier with ill-defined boundaries; just like work and just

Concreting Complexity

30 January 2013

I’ve been thinking about the urge to scale things lately – see here and here. I understand the concern with being able to effect big social change and simultaneously see how easily that urge can be used to block small changes in an unconscious urge to be in control. Chris

Scaling and Theory U

29 January 2013

I really enjoyed Dave Snowden’s reflections on Theory U. I’ve been meaning to write a comprehensive post but those never get written so here are a few reflections for now. Definitely worth reading the whole thing. He reflects more generally on approaches to management that draw on spiritual traditions such
