I just published “Mapping Maturity: create context specific maturity models with Wardley Maps informed by Cynefin” medium.com/p/mapping-maturit…
What if we looked at the Hugging Face incident differently, what could we learn and how would this inform the way we integrate agentic Al into our workplace?

Our next Design Challenge is live!
We’re exploring how AI could transform the assessment-call experience ... a process often marked by long waits, repeated questioning, inaccessible formats and huge pressure on both claimants and assessors.
What if we could use AI to create assessment calls that are clearer, fairer, easier to navigate and far less stressful ... for everyone involved?
It’s a chance to rethink a system under serious strain and rebuild it around empathy, accuracy and speed.

Our first Design Challenge is live!
We’re looking at how AI could transform the handwritten PIP form process … a system slowed by huge backlogs, long waits and the challenge of interpreting thousands of handwritten submissions.
AI can help bring speed, clarity and fairness to a process under real strain.

I'm finding more and more that my work with organisations and teams involves undoing/reconfiguring the practices adopted to cope with the pandemic.

I was asked to contribute to a discussion on Agile meet ups/conferences in Scotland and to tell the story about their history. I drew this timeline... what am I missing? @AgileScotland @LeanAgileGLA @LeanAgileScot @LeanAgileEdi @TheFOWScotland

Who first said “Stop starting, start finishing”?
I’m assuming it’s someone from the early Kanban community but I can’t recall who.
