Real Life Adventures + Exploration

Different thoughts for different times ↑ ↓

AS WE ADVANCE deeper into the knowledge economy … ” — Drucker books

Tremendous challenges for: Government spending, Blockbuster, HP, Yahoo,
Proctor and Gamble, Nokia, Motorola, Xerox,
Blackberry, Sony, Panasonic, Kodak,
and many of the In Search Of Excellence Companies

Plus lots of individuals




Navigating first requires searching and selecting “things”
to work toward — direction

In other words it requires exploration

Exploration includes new Exposure
which includes
fresh insights
from repeated exploration.

exploring

“To know something,
to really understand something important,
one must look at it from sixteen different angles.

People are perceptually slow,
and there is no shortcut to understanding;
it takes a great deal of time.” read more

But precisely because there are so many different areas of importance,
the day-by-day method of management
is inadequate
even in the smallest and simplest business.

Because deterioration is what happens normally—that is,
unless somebody counteracts it—there is need for
a systematic and purposeful program.

There is need to reduce the almost limitless possible tasks
to a manageable number.

There is need to concentrate scarce resources
on the greatest opportunities and results.

There is need to do the few right things
and do them with excellence.

Managing for Results by Peter Drucker

“But tomorrow always arrives.

It is always different.

And then even the mightiest company is in trouble
if it has not worked on the future
.

It will have lost distinction and leadership—all that will remain
is big-company overhead.

It will neither control nor understand what is happening.

Not having dared to take the risk of making the new happen,
it perforce took the much greater risk
of being surprised by what did happen.

And this is a risk that even the largest and richest organization
cannot afford and that even the smallest one need not run.”

road ahead

Imagine the outcomes for somebody in
1950, 1970, 1990, 2005
devoting all their energy to
what existed at the time or
what was on their mental radar at the time

It is a very uneven and unpredictable landscape

When we are embedded in doing something
we are blind to the changing world around us

The human brain has no natural way to bring itself
to focus on the real tomorrowS that will emerge.

Even when it tries,
yesterday wants to prevail


When the time comes to think beyond the immediate
what mental radar content will be available?

When is the when?


The site provides a big picture thinking landscape over time

It is a way to see and work beyond current mental involvements

This is essential for navigating a changing world

The site is a tool for creating a work menu and considering what’s next


How do we keep our brain focused on the road ahead and
what’s next without it naturally slipping back into the normal
daily flow of events that eventually lead to dead ends?

Technology is changing very quickly, as are markets and structures.

You can’t design your life around a temporary organization.”

Successful careers are not planned

They develop when people are prepared
for opportunities
because they know
their strengths,
their method of work, and
their values.

Knowing where one belongs
can transform an ordinary person
—hardworking and competent but otherwise mediocre—
into an outstanding performer.
