John Hagel has written an inspiring piece on HBR picking up on the thinking of Drucker in relationship to complexity. Source of thought is here: http://blogs.hbr.org/cs/2013/06/how_drucker_thought_about_comp.html The challenge John lays down is “If we are to successfully adapt to the escalating complexity of our environment, we need to invest more time and energy in exploring institutional innovation ” However, I believe that Innovation is fundamentally a useless word in terms of defining a strategic intent as it has a unique meaning for each person.  "Innovation" words come in many guises, with defined mind sets and siloed understanding.  The corporate (instructional) and early stage businesses use the same words but with very different understandings.

If I were at school today I would rattle with pills, have my own personal counsellor and shrink, which is why I am a part of FeynLabs . Feynlabs is developing a set of unique techniques to accelerate the learning of programming, computer science and computational thinking among young people. If Girls don’t get excited about computing science by 12 they will probably be lost and we lack the teachers to get them on side.   We have just successfully completed our KickStarter with the Team and now have to start to deliver, all and any help welcome.
