Director / Principle Consultant at The Advanced Problem-Solving Partnership
Me in Three
I have discovered that the moment of value creation in the knowledge economy is the system of problem-solving and that itself is a complex adaptive system and needs to be managed as such. I emphasize wisdom not intellect as the enabler of greatness.
The only way to achieve results is to address the whole person and the whole system.
I believe that strong ethics and purpose informs thinking, thinking results in behaviours and behaviours guide how we interact.
I find myself acting as an integrator linking ideas and activities from disparate schools of thought, identifying synergies and creating new synergies.
Many people don't readily see the value of what I do, they don't understand why what I do is important - yet! A few that are well advanced along the journey do get it but not until they have failed with traditional thinking.
I continue on a long, testing personal journey of exploration and love the journey of ideas and into the natural world. I could do without the hardship but that's where we grow fastest.
An adventurer: I paddle and climb, dance, sing and dive - but not all at the same time!
As a young boy, in 1973 I was shipwrecked and it changed my life.
