水槽の脳 ～brain in a vat～

先月は「検診月」だったので

だらけないよう意識して継続

梅雨明けしたが、前半は雨が多く

ずぶぬれの時もあったが

雨宿りしながらゆっくりと

思考する時間が持てたこと

ありがたく思う

Bootstrapping Strategy

　　　　　　　　　　by Douglas Carl Engelbart

• Engage Your Innovators
  • Engage target customers and other key stakeholders in your innovation team and network.
  • Map your improvement activities into ABC – (A) business as usual, (B) innovating how A work gets done, (C) innovating how B work gets done – to reveal hidden opportunities for engagement.
  • Connect B and C activities in networked improvement communities for additional leverage.
• Leverage Your Collective IQ
  • Establish how your team/network will leverage its collective ingenuity and follow-through, beginning with shared values, vision, process, and enabling tools that are open and evolvable – this establishes the foundation for your dynamic knowledge ecosystem, your group brain.
  • Drill down into "Collective IQ" as a capability to reveal additional points of leverage.
• Focus on Capability
  • Revisit your focus/horizon in terms of capability, e.g. "are we in the telegraph business or communications business?" – it's about improving capability for your customer, and your teams/networks.
  • For each desired capability, drill down to reveal hidden opportunities in human and tool innovation.
• Accelerate Co-Evolution
  • Be pro-active about co-evolving the human and tool sides of the equation, fostering a symbiotic relationship between the two with a build-and-try pioneering attitude.
  • Join with other networked improvement communities as partners in exploration and pilot trials.
• Walk Your Talk to Bootstrap Results
  • For those whose products/services are intended to leverage customers' Collective IQ, walking your talk can yield a bonus multiplier effect like compounded interest. When you are your own best customer, every improvement you make to your work product will automatically increase your own Collective IQ – the essence of bootstrapping.
  • The more your products/services contribute to increasing Collective IQ, the greater your potential to increase Collective IQ exponentially.
  • In fact, placing special focus on innovating how people work collectively on important challenges is your point of greatest leverage.
