The document discusses collective ignorance and collective stupidity within organizations. It outlines three mechanisms for collective cognition: culture, infrastructure, and mutual ignorance. It also describes five "tyrannies of the collective" that can produce ignorance, including: the tyranny of role, where people are bound by their predefined roles; the tyranny of plans, where plans are stubbornly adhered to despite changing realities; the tyranny of infrastructure, where existing systems resist change; the tyranny of culture, where cultural norms inhibit new ideas; and the tyranny of the feast, where greed and herd behavior can lead organizations astray.

This document summarizes the discourse around digital games in Germany and Australia from the 1980s to the early 2000s. In Germany, games were initially seen very negatively and were blamed for increased violence in society. They were seen as undermining culture and promoting American values. However, over time the view became more positive as games were recognized as an art form. In Australia, games were generally viewed more positively and as a mainstream leisure activity from the beginning with less concern about their cultural impact.
21st Century Threat Appraisal Part2
The document discusses the importance of balancing anticipatory protection with bolstering systemic strengths that make society robust and resilient. While professional anticipators focus on anticipated threats, equal effort should go towards empowering citizens, markets, science, and transparency. Only an open and transparent society can ultimately withstand threats, as closed systems are vulnerable. Professional protectors should aim for more openness and accountability rather than self-serving assumptions.
21st Century threat appraisal - pt1
Our professional protectors (defense, intelligence, etc) stress "anticipation" of plausible threats. Laudable. But this mind set exposes unseen gaps in preparing nation and civilization to withstand the full range of dangers. A renowned physicist/science-fiction author demonstrates the breadth of dangers and a way to help reduce them.
21st Century Threat Appraisal Part1
This document discusses non-traditional threats and underdeveloped strengths that could harm modern civilization. It identifies potential threats from super-empowered angry individuals, rival states using unconventional warfare, overconfident innovators implementing dangerous plans without oversight, and opportunists acting out of self-interest. For each threat, it outlines possible aims, methods, impacts, and preventions or solutions that combine improved protections with fostering societal resilience.

Film lesson 4 blockbusters
The document discusses the key elements that make an international blockbuster film. It suggests that blockbusters are made with wide global appeal by avoiding anything too culturally specific, using stereotypes to make characters easily understandable, and featuring a story about saving the world from disaster. Additionally, blockbusters employ big-budget production values like CGI effects, focus on a universal love story element, and aim to be visually engaging with less emphasis on dialogue. Establishing a franchise or brand helps with continuity and additional income from merchandise.

· 1. Jane Addams on War. In 1915, shortly after the beginning of World War One, Jane Addams, a social activist from Chicago and co-founder of Hull House, travelled to Europe with a group of women peace advocates. The women met with the leadership of most of the countries that declared war and also met with soldiers, medical personnel, and the mothers of soldiers. On her return from Europe, Addams gave a speech at Carnegie Hall in New York City. The following excerpt is from the conclusion of her address. “The old notion that you can drive a belief into a man at the point of a bayonet is in force once more. It is quite as foolish to think that if militarism is an idea and an ideal, it can be changed and crushed by counter-militarism or by a bayonet charge. And the young men in these various countries say of the bayonet charges: ‘That is what we cannot not think of.’ We heard in all countries similar statements in regard to the necessity of the use of stimulants before men would engage in bayonet charges-that they have a regular formula in Germany, that they give them rum in England and absinthe in France; that they all have to give them ‘dope’ before the bayonet charge is possible. Well, now, think of that. “No one knows who is responsible for the war; all the warring nations are responsible, and they indict themselves. But in the end human nature must reassert itself. The old elements of human understanding and human kindliness among them must come to the fore, and then it may well be that they will reproach the neutral nations and will say: ‘What was the matter with the rest of the world that you kept quiet while this horrible thing was happening, and our men for a moment had lost their senses in this fanaticism of national feeling all over Europe?’” (Addams, 1915, 359)
· 2. St. Anselm's Conversation (Argument) with and About God “And so, Lord, do thou, who dost give understanding to faith, give me, so far as thou knowest it to be profitable, to understand that thou art as we believe; and that thou art that which we believe. And, indeed, we believe that thou art a being than which nothing greater can be conceived. Or is there no such nature, since the fool hath said in his heart, there is no God? But, at any rate, this very fool, when he hears of this being of which I speak-a being than which nothing greater can be conceived-understands what he hears, and what he understands is in his understanding; although he does not unders.
Adaptive Intelligence for an Uncertain Age.pdf
This document is a thesis submitted by Zachery Tyson Brown to the National Intelligence University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Master of Science in Strategic Intelligence. The thesis examines how the United States Intelligence Community must undergo significant changes to remain relevant in the 21st century, arguing it needs to transition from a centralized, production-oriented model to a distributed, knowledge-sharing network to better serve policymakers. The abstract outlines how the world has changed dramatically since the IC's origins but it still operates much the same, and proposes it disaggregate its analytic functions and empower independent expert teams to work more closely with decision-makers.
War on Linearity
The document discusses the differences between "linearists" and "non-linearists" in their approaches to business, innovation, and life. Linearists favor planning, minimizing costs, and avoiding failure, while non-linearists emphasize taking action, maximizing revenue, learning from failures and mistakes, and responding quickly to change. The document provides many quotes illustrating these contrasting mindsets and argues that a non-linear approach is better suited for an unpredictable world.

2009 perhaps we should have shouted
This document provides a retrospective from 1998 on intelligence challenges and proposed solutions. Some key points:
1. In the 1990s, the author recognized emerging threats like information warfare, transnational gangs, disease, and economic competition that conventional intelligence was not prepared to address.
2. A 2008 conference reiterated these issues and the need for a strategic model linking threats, preventive action, and whole-of-government/multinational cooperation.
3. The top threats to global security are said to be poverty, disease, environmental degradation, and conflict, according to a 2004 UN report, though these are still ignored.
4. To address today's threat of global destabilization, the author
2009 perhaps we should have shouted

Refugees and Migration: How National Academies Can Work Together to tackle Gl...
This document discusses the role that national academies can play in addressing issues related to refugees and migration. It suggests that academies can support academics, artists, lawyers and journalists at risk, lobby internationally for safe passage and family reunification, engage in sustained public outreach to rehabilitate the role of evidence in policymaking, host international schools on rhetoric and argumentation to counter fear-based narratives, promote inclusive practices that further integration, and catalyze evidence to counter xenophobic narratives by highlighting places where fear is being overcome and migration is normal. The document argues that the exclusion and persecution of refugees undermines global cooperation, and that academies can offer counter-stories to change the dominant narratives around migration.
We, the Sheeple Vs. the Banksters
The document is a call to action against "the banksters" who control the privately-owned Federal Reserve system. It argues that the Federal Reserve and largest banks have orchestrated events like the financial crisis and Great Recession to consolidate power and wealth for themselves at the expense of the American people. It claims they have deliberately engineered crises to infiltrate the government and seize control over the country through mechanisms like creating money from nothing and charging interest on loans to the government.
Auditing Cases
The document discusses the case of New Century Financial Corporation, a subprime mortgage lender that collapsed in 2007. It provides historical context on subprime lending and how deregulation in the 1980s expanded access to mortgages for those with poor credit. The case examines criticism of KPMG, New Century's auditor, for failing to catch issues prior to its bankruptcy. Overall, it analyzes New Century's business model, the risks of subprime lending, and the role of auditors in oversight of the company.

Prophecy And Political Correctness - Prophecy In The News Magazine - Augus...
This document summarizes and discusses a news article about political correctness and censorship. It makes three key points:
1) Political correctness begins with good intentions to fix problems but eventually leads to censorship of dissenting ideas and control of language and thought.
2) George Orwell's novel 1984 provides an example of a dystopian future where political correctness and control of language have been taken to their extreme logical conclusion.
3) Elements of political correctness and censorship of language are already present today, such as in public school curriculum that aims to enforce strict codes of political and social correctness.

A wiki for cancer treatment guidelines - Jutta von Dinklage
A wiki is proposed as a new way to develop and disseminate clinical practice guidelines for cancer treatment. Wikis allow for more efficient literature searches, easier citation handling, and iterative publishing of up-to-date guidelines. Multiple stakeholders can collaborate on guidelines by each contributing to different sections. This makes the process more transparent, flexible, scalable and affordable compared to traditional written guidelines which become quickly outdated and are costly to produce. The wiki would facilitate public consultation and updating of guidelines based on new evidence submissions. Analytics would track guideline usage and e-learning modules could aid dissemination and implementation.
Are the days of the traditional intranet numbered? Alister Webb
The traditional centralized Intranet model is becoming outdated and less relevant as users now access information across various social and collaborative platforms. A case study of a SharePoint project at Telstra called "Our Knowledge" showed how it was more distributed, allowing different views and collaboration depending on users' roles. Going forward, the future Intranet model may be more personalized and app-based, tailored to specific tasks or functions on both desktop and mobile, replacing the need to visit separate Intranet, collaboration and knowledge platforms. This new "MyWorkspace" approach would bring relevant information and apps directly to individual users.
Investing In A System - Ian Miller
This document discusses investing and psychology. It mentions investing in systems, purposive engagement over time, uncertainty and emotion. It also references firms, markets, investors, interactions between investors, behavior, external factors and balancing objectives with subjectivity around loss and personal requirements.
Role of KM in e-maintenance
This document discusses a research proposal on the role of knowledge management (KM) in reducing the bullwhip effect in spare parts supply chain management (SPSCM). The proposal aims to study how KM capabilities and infrastructure can help reduce information distortion between customer demand and supplier orders. It reviews relevant literature on KM capabilities, infrastructure, and systems/technologies in SPSCM. The proposed methodology is a quantitative experiment using the beer game simulation under different KM strategy conditions to analyze the impact on the bullwhip effect.
Managing knowledge we don’t want: Emotion in Organisations
This document discusses the management of emotions in organizations. It notes that bureaucracy aims to eliminate personal, irrational and emotional elements from business. However, some argue this leads to the "dehumanization" of organizations. The document also discusses concepts like "emotion engineering" where companies try to control employees' emotions for commercial gain. It poses questions about what might happen if leaders expressed emotion more freely, relationships were better managed, and emotion was viewed as a source of intelligence rather than something to be avoided.
KM Challenges in a Global Environment
This document summarizes a presentation given by Mark Andrews on the knowledge management challenges faced by the global law firm Baker & McKenzie and how they address them. Baker & McKenzie has offices in 39 countries and over 10,000 employees who speak 70 languages. To manage knowledge across cultures, the firm has a global knowledge management team, governance structure through practice groups, and technologies like SharePoint and Recommind. The firm also evaluates employees' legal knowledge and expertise as well as their contribution to knowledge sharing as part of performance reviews.
2009 Survey
The document summarizes feedback from a survey of the NSW KM Forum member experience. Respondents provided suggestions to: 1) continue collaborating with other professional groups to broaden topics and networking opportunities; 2) maintain a balance of theoretical and practical presentations incorporating hands-on activities; and 3) cover emerging topics such as knowledge management in complex projects, e-learning developments, and demonstrating ROI for knowledge management. Keeping the forum relevant by addressing new concepts and technologies was also recommended.
Jye Smith
This document discusses 5 lessons about conferences that can be learned from attending heavy metal concerts. It notes that the best parts of a conference will be at the end like a headlining band, the importance is experiencing a conference in person rather than just following online, atmosphere and performance are important like at a concert, and most importantly there will be networking opportunities just like enjoying the music at a concert.
Stephen Lead Ignite
The document discusses conferences and presentations. It notes that 93% of conferences suck and most of them suck. It then criticizes typical conference sessions for consisting of bullet point overload. The final lines promote an Ignite format conference for helping to cut out unnecessary content from presentations.
Future of Conferences John Allsopp
This document discusses various topics related to connecting people on the internet and hosting conferences and events. It touches on randomness, sharing common interests, inspiring and entertaining attendees, engaging speakers, creating a good atmosphere with food, building a community, supporting other events, and the future of conferences. The document credits different individuals at the end of many lines but does not provide much context or narrative.
Be2camp Technology Jodie Miners
Be2camp is an unconference focused on how web 2.0 technologies can help improve sustainability in the built environment. Be2camp 1 was held in London in 2008, and Be2camp North will be held in Liverpool in May 2009. The organizers use various web tools like Skype, Twitter, and Ning to organize meetings and discussions. At events, participants can engage live in the room, virtually through streaming video and blogging, or via Second Life. Over 50 people attended Be2camp 2008 in person and online. Recordings of the event received over 170 views. Lessons from Be2camp included using free web tools, ensuring good WiFi, and encouraging online discussions.
Blended Facilitation by Ed Mitchell
The document discusses a case study of the Media Sandbox project, which used a "blended facilitation" approach to bring together online and offline collaboration. Blended facilitation strategically plans and delivers models that combine virtual and physical collaboration to achieve organizational goals. The Media Sandbox facilitated knowledge sharing and networking across blogs, mailing lists, events and other tools. It engaged participants in roles like project workers, facilitators and community members to build knowledge assets accessible in both online and offline spaces.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
