Editor's Notes
- POP: 1996. Digitally Centered. Based here in Seattle. Microsoft, Target, Nike, Pokemon, Home Depot, Getty Images. Software Developer with over a decade of operations experience, I tend to looking pragmatically and holistically about how businesses can take advantage of new technologies.
- We live in this amazing time when the advances in technology are far reaching and really cool. They hold a lot of promise.

- In order to deal with the crazy pace of change, we need to come to terms with our basic human instinct to gain control and causal understanding
- And I’m talking about project management broadly here.

- Game developers have mastered the art of motivation. Gameification is a very popular concept. But I don’t think badges or levels necessarily translate well in the workplace. There is something more fundamental that we need to address. Interestingly Agile, as a methodology, hits on all of the same characteristics.

- What we need now is way to get back to the future. We have all this great technology just waiting to exploited. Instead, we we’re stuck in silos (another artifact of industrial era thinking), we’re waiting for that big initiative that months away from starting, etc.
