My name is not Victoria.
Although I am willing to share secrets too.
This hack is a guide to find your way through a grid of 30 hacks and stories.
Some sort of "Serial MIXer Hacker" confessions.
Mixing ideas and contributors.
A map and a AAA guide are shared, free of access, no toll tag required, to get you up to speed on our Management 3.0 Hacking Freeway.
Free thinkers and bikers are welcome for the ride.
Mash Up was a nice NYC Nov 2014 stop.
Long is the road and hard is the way, but some like it this way.
Do you?
Have Fun in mind busting hunt.
Problem #1 (Management scope) : How to deal with complexity and communicate about difficult topics, while refusing the 3 bullet points shaving turning bold statements into bald haircuts, clueless decisions or bad thoughts?
(Cover page of the attached GPS Map and Guide)
Problem #2 (FJL Freeway demo illustration) : How to get back on track when lost in such an interconnection grid ?
Transparency can only help to get rid of part of some blur.
So are changes in wording, and re-shaping of the logical plan can resolve some basic lack of clarity.
As long as the goal is plain explanation and simplicity, this is a stairway to heaven.
But it may become the highway to hell if this means escaping the crucial confrontations or making up the truth or depth.
Freeway means something different.
It is not about the speed of the intellectual ride, but for the respect of the long and winding road chosen by the pilot, or by the local topography of mind mapping or business models constraints.
Bulldozers are not the ultimate tool for problem solving. It does replanish but hide or erase diversity and relief.
One proposed solution, is to capture and describe the unusual and advanced insights.
It is to cure the raw material and propose additional and alternative documents to map, draw or picture the abstract or cause-effects patterns.
It is to set up analogies, or to connect dots of different nature to reveal the entire picture or vision.
It is to enrich the delivered message until the point that different mental preferences profiles kick in.
It is to split topics in "bit by bit" elements. And "Step by Step" higher level structures too.
In order to get down to chewable pieces. And pile up layers.
The solution is to illustrate and explain. By any means.Over an over.
Time being a constraint, it is to inverse the curse and make it an ally.
Add time to convince and influence. Be patient.
Hacks may be directly connected, like belong to a Serie, or interconnected via one specific angle, features, a direction, a picture, a graph.
Some are entangled, or derived from each other, as a whole or only for parts.
It means that even separated texts in topics and timeline are exchanging properties and get cross updated.
Another level is the entanglement of authors, as a co-creation mode.
Each can be read a stand alone, or related and therefore a peace of the whole.
One can view it as clues in some quest, a kind of Da vinci code type of enigma and deciphering game.
You need to recognize patterns, like in nature.
Fractal architecture can be a lead.
The FJL "Freeway Map" and "AAA Guide" should re-set any lost signal and lost tracks and act as a Global Positioning System
The horizontal axis of the map is the time, that gives indication about the chronology of ideas, while vertical is a personal attempt to guide between groundfloor stories, easy to read and more bold proposals.
The AAA guide pages after the map are zoom and some guidance explanation about the key ideas, or structure, or specificities for each story, or about a set of stories, or about a detail.
Extract example of "Mini-Hacks Series" Guide page :
Please,
have a look at attached material for complete picture
I wish it helps to find more clarity into this messy complexity that I resist to simplify in 3 bullet points for the sake of respect of the quantum behavior of mind processes, and human interactions.
These Arrows not intending to change the landscape and topography, but to find your way back to each your own "logic home sweet home".
So, AAA could either mean :
(Easy reading) Ask -Arrows- Assistance
OR,
( No EZ coded) Aesthetics- Asymetries -Anti-Fragility.
Double level is a demo of a beneficial approach and best practice to invite for complexity step by step acquisition.A good axis for curation of expert knowledge material for instance. Or bold ideas in management.
Example : The map shows that complex topics may be scaled down by using a simpler level of illustration and shorter format splits.
Or, it can be a decision to keep the codes to demonstrate "hidden variables" impact in real life and management analysis.
Especially for HR, soft skills and behavior deciphering....Humans are quite sophisticated creatures as individuals and organized colonies.
You encounter the same idea of level progression in a set of secondary maps.
The first is called : called Tags Design and management progression Map.
This is a synthesis about all the macro themes addressed in the Hacks and Stories grid.
The second is called : Management progression and illustrate elevation to Management 3.0 and belongs to the 18 Black Holes story
Enjoy.
Should you still feel lost, please Ask for Assistance.
I'll be more than happy to help. And know what ? It will also help me to find my way back either....
I wish it helps. Enjoy. Have Fun and mind busting hunt.
This file is to help you to find your way into a grid of hacks and stories.
Some may call it messy. It is heavily intricated indeed.
It is a set of 30 as of today.(out of which 20 under different co-authoring modes)
Some sort of "serial hacker" confessions.
Map and guide should act as a Global Positioning System
Expected impacts are :
-
better understanding of content and linkage processes,
-
increased level of interest for the topics and interaction,
-
influence to move the lines about 3 points silver bullet ideas killers.
-
self-kidding as a 4th bullet to escape the syndrom.
So more clarity enlightening obscure topics.
As in dutch 16th century painting magical technical mastery.
Most readers and organizations favor simplicity.
Times favor flash actions and zapping, adding to the temptation to over-simplify and shorten formats and boldness of content.
When one preference is to try to keep and manage complexity in order to take advantage of its specific properties, quit rates are going up fast.
Adding a guide may help while it is no miracle.
My name is not Victoria. Sorry.
Although I am wheeling (no typo) to share secrets too.
Step 1 : This Map and guide are first step to show how to deal with complexity, and gain influence without giving up boldness.
Step 2 : Another call for comment to the MIX community.
Do not hesitate to comment or ask for any other need for explanation or clarifying points.
We know how such call are not very succesful, especially about long articles. ( See Shift Values Series "No comment" Hack)
Big thank you for stepping in eventually.
It is a blessing to get feedbacks.
Step 3 : It will be to follow up within a cycle process of updating the content.
I will likely keep enriching and completing the attached GPS document with new materials eventually and detail original pictures titles and deciphering.
1. For this Serial MIXer HAck, I need to give obvious and limitless credit to Benoit Mandelbrot, for the huge impact of his "The Fractalist ; Memoir of a scientific maverick" on daring abilities to claim a personal right to be wrong.
And free to link nots between oranges and elephant bananas consumption statistics, that some can call mental frauds.
2. After 4 years of this long ride along the Management Innovation Freeway, for this Milestone synthesis hack, I must remind beyond the asphalt surface about the inouts and contribution of co-ride who cross my road, or ride aside or in front of myself for a couple of miles or more.
Shielded minds that I try to keep track below.
I wish I did not forget Maverick Thinkers buddies names. If any, the good news is the list is meant to be updated and sustainable.
So again many thanks to :
