I really like the phrase in your first vignette – “real-time sense making” in the context of complex adaptive systems where it’s less about prediction and more about real-time sense making in the face of emergence.
Far out re China’s 66 out of 74!
In ‘Building Knowledge’ and the way you described your learning journey and that of the new CEO, I suspect that you are both super-learners, aka learning junkies. My anecdotal data would suggest that there’s not many of you in the adult population – those driven by insatiable curiosity and literally addicted to learning, both within and outside of your existing knowledge domain. According to Dr Theo Dawson, as we move through adulthood, most of us settle into one, maybe two, developmental silos, gaining deeper and richer knowledge and skills in one or two relatively narrow areas of expertise.
