Later today: A conversation with the wonderful Peter Block about his latest book “Activating the common good: Reclaiming control of our collective well-being”. A book that could not be more timely!

In the 23rd @BetaCodex_INTL research paper (published yesterday), I invite you to take a closer look at the 1950s and 1960s, when W. Edwards Deming taught the Japanese about production & management for quality: nielspflaeging.substack.com/…

People who talk of leaders
are obsessed with authoritarian thinking.
They cannot get rid of
paternalistic (“power-over”) patterns of imagining the world.
They have nothing constructive
to contribute to organizations or societies.

Practical theory makes people think.
Great cases only make people nod (at best).
Which is why "safaris" to the Silicon Valley or other "inspiring" places are dysfunctional.
Sorry.

This week's new article, on #Deming, #Drucker and the crucial difference between the two: nielspflaeging.substack.com/…

Don’t aim at being a generalist - aim at being a multi-specialist! Robust, high-performing teams are made up of multi-specialists, or “individuals with several, or many masteries” who can effortlessly slip into several different roles.
“Generalist” – that sounds like “scallywag”.

Relative Targets – not OKRs!
Because OKRs are bloody bullshit.

Culture cannot be broken.
Culture cannot be wrong.
Culture does not pose a problem.
Culture does not stand in the way.
Culture does not force anybody.
Culture is not powerful.
Stop believing in "culture gurus" like Ed Schein.
It's the system, stupid!
