Notes on slide 1

So over the years I have had years of practice in Action learning … holding up the mirror …

And in search of best practice ways to bring about behavioiur change … in searching for the magic levers … I realised that in my field of practice that everything is COMPLEX and you have to …

I’ll get some practical ideas on HOW we need to work and shift our mindset when dealing with Complex Adaptive systems

In each, action informs reflection and is informed by it. The reflection produces the learning (in action learning) or research (in action research). Think of both learning and research as understanding. In both, the action is changed as a result of the learning/research, and leads to more learning/research.

Action Learning/Research can be both supported by the Social Media space and tool ANDThe use of Social Media in action is driving new behaviours and social practices that support critical reflection and experiential learning

Which domain is behaviour change in? Crowd to call out

By the way, in complex work … where outcomes are not predictable … another human factor comes into play.… At the same time our political and business rhetoric says that ‘everyone’ needs step and show leadership … be innovative … try new things in these complex times’. BUT our culture is so much about control and pulling levers to deliver outcomes with ever diminshing resources …

For innovation to flourish in a country or a place, requires the contribution of many actors, from universities, to corporates, to small companies, to public sector institutions etc. However looking at the supposed innovation in most countries, there is a at best a multihub network where universities, governments and corporates have undue power. I would argue that good ideas come from anywhere and we need a much more distributed (along the lines of picture c above) economic and social landscape to allow these to flourish. This has numerous implications for intellectual property regimes and other structures which are more than enough for another blog post so I won’ t go into that here.
