Systems Practice
Exploring the intersection of systemic investment, place-based capital, community finance and social innovation
Funding and frameworks for a world in transition - session recording, reflections and exploration
Complexity
Responding across the system
We need to address the complexity gap in climate responses.
Experimentation
Fieldnote: Visualising Experiment Portfolios
Let's talk about Experimentation Portfolios. Visualising an array of experiments to see active and latent potential to shift systems through living labs, mission-oriented innovation and challenge precincts.
Complexity
The 'so what' of complexity - Part II
In this fieldnote, I'm going to dive into the guiding principles for my complexity practice - including a focus on Portfolio Approaches, Learning and Funding.
Complexity
The 'so what' of complexity - Part I
It's been the best part of 10 years I've been exploring and writing about complexity now - it's about time to capture some of the main learnings about the implications, rather than the substance.
Research
Fieldnotes: Ethics In Lab Team Research
The Lab environment, it may be their first exposure to engaging in collaborative, cross-disciplinary research and prototyping, thus we have a responsibility to make part of our container setting about exploring ethical considerations.
Portfolio Sensemaking
Portfolio approaches to change: emerging patterns & resources
This post focuses on the recent advancements in a 'portfolio' approach to change work which is happening across multiple organisations, and is an interesting signal in a move away from planning-based approaches.
Platform Design
Paying Attention to Signals
This is a fieldnote which attempts to articulate four ingredients which are mixing around in my head, all converging to inform the development of a platform to support environmental conservation groups.
