Fuzzy Signalsextracting the signal from the noise |
One of the interesting social networks and communities I belong to is Pioneers of Change, a global learning community for young changemakers between the ages of 25-25 -- that crucial period where careers and identities are crystallizing.
In one of our email conversations about the future of Pioneers, and what needs it fills in the world, Bob Stilger from The Berkana Institute made this wonderful comment:
My sense is that many of us are on a journey beyond our individual and institutional identities into what I call our integrities. We are beings seeking integrity. And in our search, we are also looking for the fields of our belonging... This is new territory, friends. The kinds of organizational forms that will support this search, and us as searchers, are new.
It reminded me of what Jay Oglivy wrote about when he argued that business education -- and indeed any education -- needed to move away from a fragmented approach that focused on disciplines only -- to an approach that was about understanding whole systems while tapping into our whole person.
