MUCH LESSER EVILS
I’m a political junky. Over the years I’ve tried to keep politics out of the explorations here, but the personal is the political. I’ve thought about a political blog too, although the world probably doesn’t need another lefty blog. Far … Continue reading
NUMERO UNO
The Lakewood Public Library has returned to the top ranking (pdf) of American libraries in its class. And, it scored #2 among all libraries in Hennen’s American Public Library Ratings for 2006. It is my favorite library. I like what … Continue reading
UNINTENDED NEOCONSEQUENCES
Karl Weick is one of my main guys. The Social Psychology of Organizing and Sensemaking In Organizations are deservedly classics but each of his books are terrific. Anyway…in the aftermath of the earlier MAZE THE COURSE post, the following excerpts … Continue reading
Teaching Cartoon: The Day After
From a tale of the Mulla Nasruddin, I visualize the real political problem.
TRACKING THE BULGE

VOLUME CONTROL
Curt Rosengren over at The Occupational Adventure has clipped part of an article (original) and the tag he provides reminds me of a basic tool I’ve been researching with my colleague Linda over the past few years. The tool, called … Continue reading
3 STEPS
Dave Snowden refashions the affectual component of the transformative learning model for the sake of innovation. I have long argued that there are three necessary, but not sufficient conditions for innovation to take place. These are: 1. Starvation of familiar … Continue reading
BACK WHACKING AND BACK STACKING
In refashioning and reviving the explorations blog, I’ve back whacked. Which is to say, inventively, a slew of unpublished posts are being distributed and time stamped as if they had appeared on the actual date each is time stamped with. … Continue reading
