Stanford d.school bootleg

Check this out —  It’s the d.school bootcamp bootleg.   This compilation is intended as an active toolkit to support your design thinking practice.  The guide is not just to read – go out in the world and try these tools yourself.  In the following pages, we outline each mode of a humancentered design process, and then describe dozens of specific methods to do design work.  These process modes and methods provide a tangible toolkit which support the seven mindsets — shown on the following page – that are vital attitudes for a design thinker to hold.   Download BootcampBootleg2010v2SLIM

Business Design: Becoming a Bilateral Thinker by Heather Fraser

The author argues that the emerging discipline of Business Design requires a particular combination of mindsets, methods and thinking skills that exercise the whole brain' and help develop a well-rounded capacity for agile thinking and adaptive doing. She explains how a combination of the right mindset (being) and a rigorous methodology (doing) unlock a person's thinking and describes six skills under each of the three headings (being/doing/thinking) that foster bilateral thinking and create a platform for enterprise success.

ALIA Summer Institute--Join me! Ohio State in late June !

Authentic Leadership In Action

In business, healthcare, education, and communities around the world, leaders and entrepreneurs are seeking strategies and practices that lead to meaningful, systemic change. The ALIA Summer Institute has become a stopping-place for these pioneers—a place to learn and teach, to share lessons and offer tools that empower and accelerate “change for good.”

As you will discover, this is not your usual conference and not your usual leadership training. Imagine the best of both—people and ideas at the vanguard of creative solutions plus a chance to learn models and tools that transform complex challenges. Now put yourself in that picture—all of yourself. The Summer Institute is designed to engage you on every level, so that you can more fully align how you think and see, the tools you apply, and how you engage others to achieve your goals.

“A truly unique leadership development experience… Powerful networking opportunities… You won’t find another event like this.”
— The Washington Post, on why ALIA is a “must-consider” leadership event

Weak Signal Research

Definition of a  weak signal

A  weak signal is typically a small innovation or disruption that has the potential to grow in scale and geographic distribution. A  signal can be:

• a new product,
• a new practice,
• a new market strategy,

• a new policy,
• a new technology,
• a new event,
• a local trend,
• an organization,
• a recently revealed problem or state of affairs.

In short, a weak signal is s something that catches our attention at one scale and in one locale and points to larger implications for other locales or even globally.

Weak Signals are useful for people who are trying to anticipate a highly uncertain future. They tend to capture emergent phenomenon sooner than traditional social science methods and turn our attention to possible innovations before they become obvious. Unlike indicators, they often focus our attention at the margins of society rather than the core. In this way, they are more likely to reveal disruptions and innovations.

Technology is perhaps the world's greatest disruptor, with the power to rapidly transform people, companies, and even entire civilizations. It drives and enables dramatic change through the entire corporate ecosystem, from R&D and strategy to marketing and human resources.

How to Balance Power and Love-- Adam Kahane

Scenario planning and social change expert Adam Kahane suggests that to master large and difficult challenges, leaders need to learn to act and empathize simultaneously.

Adam Kahane’s book Power and Love: A Theory and Practice of Social Change (Berrett-Koehler, 2010) opens with a quote from one of Martin Luther King Jr.’s most famous speeches, his last presidential speech to the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. “Power without love,” said King, “is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic.”
