UNDERSTAND

The world, at least on the time scales that matter to us, is a living system. We humans are deeply embedded in this system and affect it to an extraordinary extent. Thus it is useful to understand how living systems, us included, use feedback loops to stay alive and prosper.

IMAGINE

INTERACT

To make the future - hopefully better, but certainly not yet exiting - actually happen, we need to interact deeply with each other. Mere transactions, mere deal-making won't get us there.

I keep trying.
