The knowledge process: the method behind the madness

Note that the inputs will be uploaded on the original Post (Normally underneath, just page down)

The process followed is the one of parallel thinking or CPS (creative problem solving).

It is to keep facts, meaning, judgment, creativity and action separate and by far the better way to do. Creating the UJ presentation, this is also the approach.

Steps:

1 Who are we: "Fighter pilot, Engineer, Male, 40...

2 The lay of the land, the trivial many, messy as it is, spelling, grammar irrelevant, mix language, metaphors ("'n swart mamba wag vir jou..")

3 Focus in. What does this mean? What is the one single key message (Our ultimate title) that stares us in the face. What is the maximum 3 key underlying concepts that is different from that current state of what we know and think about. Definitely away from the current key focuses (Community of Practices, World cafes...)

5 Create many possibilities.

6 Focus to vital few

7 Action!

By 15 August we will only enter point 3. It will be posted separately on the blog.
