I wonder if it’s time for me to create for myself one of those mysterious sounding buddhist-like names. That seems to be a prerequisite for attaining enlightenment. People with ordinary names seem to be unable to reach that pinnacle. And I think it has to have exotic characters in it that nobody knows how to pronounce. Like å, æ, ø, ö, ä or ü. Heck, most people can’t even find those on their keyboards, so it will truly be only mine, and inspired by the two cultures I stem from. How about Skön Høg? [Proceeds to remove tongue from cheek.]

Why does it have to be so hard to set up regular Jira report items (Control Chart, Cumulative Flow Diagram) in a dashboard?!!! Why should I have to buy add-ons and gadgets to make dashboards that actually show useful things? #Jira #Rant

PSA: The triune brain is an outdated metaphor. It’s possibly still useful, but it should be retried.

Is there a simpler and more inspiring vision than that of the Human Systems Dynamics Institute? I’m not sure I’ve ever come across one. This is it: “People everywhere thrive, because we see patterns clearly, seek to understand, and act with courage to transform turbulence and uncertainty into possibility for all.” #HSD #Vision #HumanSystemsDynamics On the eve of my “graduation”, I can’t help but share this and invite you to see if learning more about HSD can be of use to you in your work and situation. cc/ Glenda Eoyang Royce Holladay Laura Williams www.hsdinstitute.org

Let’s see how creative you can get with this sentence stem: CDC guidance says that 2 weeks after your last vaccination, you should be able to safely…

Have some fun with this – fill in the missing end!

One of the fundamental aspects of working in more agile ways is realizing that there are real limits to what we can predict and control while we all contribute to building a more complex world. Instead, we need to learn to look around and make meaning of what we see. And we need to do that both individually and together. That will take more time than we’re used to – and thus feel uncomfortable. So our anxiety goes up. When that happens we need to become good at co-regulating and providing social safety to each other. We need to see beyond dollars and cents to become scholars of sense. Then, we are able to steer our way through uncertainty together. That is what greater agility is about in work today.

If I wrote my resume like some recruiters write job emails, it would consist of only two words (plus my contact info): Agile Coach.

How much “truth” do you/YOU need, before you can see something unfamiliar and unknown as useful?

I wonder if it’s exhausting to be in a deliberately developmental organization. Seems like a lot of pressure.
