Also published: Robots Arise, Creativity Fails Tweet: On scaling consulting (re: @excapite’s recent post at Tymbals), chewing on something said earlier today “not wanting (the teaching of) mastery, only utilization” - perhaps a few boxes/triangles in a simple phrasing LinkedIn: Studying past notes, interesting insight: the org layer below “strategy” is leaning heavily into being better storytellers.
