Typical programs can be from 2 weeks to multi-years including:

  • Strategic Facilitation

The need is to switch from “business as usual” to sustainable ecosystem development via:

  • Regenerative Behaviour

    • Important for full ecosystem services function. It covers goals such as reducing net GHG emissions and energy use from non-regenerative sources. systemic drivers such as technology, regulation, and social and cultural forces, as well as specific areas of focus such as food and transportation.

  • Presencing Experience

    • Collective and organizational consciousness, Theory U and meditative practice, existentialism, community incubation, and compassion.

  • Integrative Actions

    • Social economy and network society

Stakeholders / Stewards of the Future

Our approach is in holistic ecosystem stakeholders engagement on governance and stewardship issues:

  • Community Leaders
  • Politicians / Governments / Advocacy groups

  • Quality improvement / scrap reduction
  • Increasing profits / reducing costs
  • Improved socio-environmental impact (ESG / SDG)
  • New product development and innovation
  • Reduced time-to-market / time-to-delivery
  • Improving management efficiency

What specific outcomes will be achieved? What will change?

Project success rates

  • Large projects 18 over 3 (5x)
  • All projects 39 over 11 (4x)

When we do, we find some remarkable facts. Agile isn’t just one more approach to creative thinking or iterative prototyping. Rather, it’s a well-developed holistic system engineered to overcome more than a dozen common barriers to successful innovation. It’s also highly effective. In tens of thousands of software development projects, Agile methods have boosted average success rates to 39% from 11%, a more than threefold improvement. In large, complex projects Agile’s success rate jumps to six times that of conventional methods.

Unique Value / Context

  • quite novel, (vertical/horizontal) integration theory exists for long and was the key for monopolisation
  • Integration with distributed/decentralized governance = AppStore of business processes and resources
  • platform cooperativism / Supermarkt
  • collective intelligence / nesta
  • holacracy/sociocarcy/selforganization
  • agile/scrum
  • teal culture

Value chain integration / way out of local optimization

  • Governance – biggest leverage
  • Dialogue tech moved far ahead
  • Still lack of vision & conflicts
  • Research > Dialogues > Incubation > New Ventures
  • Coordination premium vs benefits

Methodology

Outline clearly the methodology that we will use to assess the project's success.

  • Audit
  • Foresight
  • OKR
  • Scrum / Agile
  • Governance
  • (NVC)
