Keith did much of the heavy lifting for which I am grateful. His commitment to both the ideas AND making them accessible is something I deeply appreciate.

Read #LiberatingStructures - An Antidote to #ZombieScrum on InfoQ: infoq.com/articles/zombie-sc… @Barryovereem , @chrisverwijs and I believe Liberating Structures are an excellent tool for inviting systemic change within infected organizations.

Can the existing system save us from the existing system?Noticing how the logic of so much hopeful changemaking is formed by what is credible in reductionist analysis. In the rationality of these categories & metrics each issue is isolated from its contexts.Let's get more freaky.

This by @RanaAwdish so well and painfully said. Something at the heart of Unflattening & when I talk about the work...

Me: How was your day? 8yo: I just worry they are doing it wrong. Me: Doing what wrong? 8yo: They separate everything so we can’t understand anything. Who says music isn’t really math or math isn’t science really? Someone made categories but the world is a mushier than that.

The nuance, poetics and attention that perception of context requires is the making of integrity. To simply care for others and the natural world of which we are is as rigorous as it is easy. I just want to say: rigor, nuance, care, integrity and poetics are not forgotten. #2020

Also, using LS with the very young and the very old and how that intergenerational variation adds vitality to our interactions.
