In a rapidly changing environment, is it appropriate to continue to be based primarily on official qualifications and experience?
Or is it better appraise aspects of character, skills of critical analysis, relational?
And who may be able to evaluate?
Hi Guiseppe - what a great contribution! Our whole societal and corporate systems are permeated by reductionist thinking. People are boxed into functional blueprints by neglecting nearly all other aspects of human potential and capability. The best knowledge is worth nothing if the owner is incapable to collaborate - period. Furthermore, today's knowledge is a dead horse tomorrow - sustainable progress can only be achieved by learner personalities.
And yes, without problem solving abilities, character etc. no progress is possible at all. Finally you make the point regarding the ability to evaluate - is it those who strive to climb the ladder, or those looking at themselves as being the natural born leader? A controlling system needs to be at least as complex as the system it wants to control - I know that you know this but obviously many others don't.

Hi Giuseppe, a great hack and I appreciate your idea and thoughts on this.
This hack is similar to mine which focusses on Relational Recruiting. The idea being that recruitment based (in part) on relational and cultural fit as one of the inputs into a hiring decision is going to create better outcomes, high engagement and superior performance for candidates, existing team members, managers and ultimately the whole organisation.

Hi Giuseppe, yes, I agree, I think both approaches have merit, if I've understood you correctly...

Hi Giuseppe, yes, I think I understand you and that we're both on the same page. You're saying that Information is passively accepted, whilst actively comparing new information is Knowledge. Have I got that right?
