A research university like Purdue is typically not part of a traditional workforce development system.
Purdue, however, has demonstrated how to stimulate workforce innovation by relying on new models of strategy and collaboration.
Latest Findings on Accelerating Innovation in Local Government Joan Munro
This presentation outlines the latest findings from UK research on how local government can achieve more major innovations, more quickly. It brings together learning from 4 separate studies, with chief executives, frontline employees, leading local politicians, and middle managers. It examines what all these groups agreed about, where they differed, as well as highlighting issues given little attention. This is Power Point version.

Whole systems change across a neighbourhood
How can we collaborate with people to help them build their resilience? Get under the skin of the culture and the lives people live. Identify people’s feelings and experiences of community and understand what people think is shaped by different values and by the environment and infrastructure around them. The future of collaboration could bring many opportunities but people find it more difficult to live and act together than before. How can we help people…and communities build their resilience? Understand people’s different situations and capabilities to develop pathways that help them build resilient relationships. Help people experience and practice change together. Help people grow everyday practices into sustainable projects. Turn people’s everyday motivations into design principles. Support infrastructure that connects different cultures of collaboration. Build relationships with people designing in collaboration for the future…now.

To meet this ambitious goal, Schneider Electric chose a social approach, and more specifically, tibbr. Today, they're successfully using tibbr to find expertise in unexplored areas, to collaborate more effectively across global regions and teams, and to create a single destination for knowledge across the organization.

My slides for a course on Strategic Doing for the Economic Development Institute. I teach the fundamentals of strategic doing in an advanced strategy lab.
APM webinar sponsored by the South Wales and West of England Branch on 23 November 2021.
Speaker: David Hawkins
Projects by their very nature require many stakeholders to work together to deliver outcomes. The greater the level of collaboration the higher the probability of success. This webinar was held on 23 November 2021.
The impact of relationships and behaviours cannot be underestimated but often this is left to develop organically and can frequently be impacted by external influences directly or inadvertently. A structured approach to placing collaborative working as part of the project plan and execution can help enhance performance.

Universities as Anchors for Regional Innovation October 2013Ed Morrison
Universities anchor regional innovation systems, and they provide new opportunities to transform regional economies. But we need new approaches to design and manage this transformation. Strategic Doing provides an alternative.
Transforming the University January 2014Ed Morrison
Universities are facing major challenges, even upheaval. How can these institutions transform themselves? Traditional approaches to strategic planning don't work very well in the Academy. Strategic Doing presents an alternative.
Major research universities have three missions: teaching, research and engagement. This presentation makes the argument that engagement provides the lens through which to see how universities can transform.
Through engagement, universities can generate new flows of revenues to support both teaching and research. Engagement also provides new opportunities for research and more powerful learning experiences for students.
Strategic Doing: Can Open Innovation Transform Regions? April 2013Ed Morrison

Strategic Doing: An Introduction January 2014Ed Morrison
Strategic Doing is a new approach to designing and executing strategy in open, loosely connected networks. The process -- which is simple, but takes practice to master -- enables people to form collaborations quickly, move them toward measurable outcomes, and make adjustments along the way.

Visualizing Our Workforce Challenges October 2013Ed Morrison
Workforce development challenges are complex, messy and invisible. We cannot "see" these systems.
If we are to make significant improvement in the productivity of our workforce systems, we will need to use new visual tools. This presentation explores this argument.
Brief Introduction to Strategic Doing May 2013Ed Morrison
This is a brief introduction to Strategic Doing, a new approach to developing and implementing strategy in open, loosely joined networks. Unlike strategic planning with is relatively slow and costly, strategic doing is a discipline which is fast, agile, and lean.
A newer version of this prevention was developed in January 2014.
Bob Brown of Michigan State University is using Strategic Doing to assemble a core team of leaders to redevelop devastated neighborhoods in Flint, MI. In this presentation, Bob provides background to this work and explains why Strategic Doing works. According to Bob:
"In neighborhoods besieged by complex, wicked problems, Strategic Doing creates hope through the power of taking action with the assets or gifts that we already possess. In that moment when we combine assets we begin to tell a new story of opportunity and possibility. Strategic Doing gives us
the power to change our lives, our neighborhoods, and our communities."
Strategic Doing: A New Discipline December 2013Ed Morrison
This presentation introduced Strategic Doing to the Australia New Zealand Regional Science Association. President of the Association, Paul Collits, invited me to make this presentation after he had studied our work.
In his keynote address to the meeting, Paul noted, "Local economic development is the identification of local assets for growth and leveraging them through collaboration. The best methodology I have seen in twenty years for achieving this is called Strategic Doing."
Skills gaps bedevil our economy.
But what are they and how did they form? This graphic illustrates how skill gaps emerged from an underperforming education system and a fragmented workforce development system.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
