Think about it.

How you approach leadership, problem solving, understanding complexity, and design solutions (or not!), is first a thought and
second an action.

Your grey matter therefore becomes a vital tool to continually
refine to produce high quality thinking into action.

Thinking newsletter fills your grey matter to do just that. What
makes this newsletter different from others? Quite simply you
get to learn the fundamental principals of high quality thinking.
It's a resource. We introduce you to a vast reservoir or practice based thinking that integrates the best of three worlds - first principle science and academic rigour and real world commercial application.

Four Industrial Revolution (4IR) thinking. Pseudo science, text book MBA models and armchair philosophy have diminishing returns in 4IR. We guide you by focusing on frameworks, models and skill sets necessary for effective next generation leadership (based on extensive research (World Economic Forum - 'Future of Work 2019', University College London/Freeformers, - The Future Workforce Model and Isos Mori Generations Social Research Institute).

Focused intention. We raise your awareness about how to approach solving difficult problems, understanding complexity and designing solutions. When you're confused think of this as your ‘bottom line' to get clarity.

Respect for context. Our readers are from every corner of the globe - China, Europe, Middle East, UK, South Africa, USA, Russia, etc., In addition from across all sectors - finance, automotive, sport, FINTECH, tourism, government, health care, etc. Each has a particular socio-cultural 'DNA'. All this can seem confusing, but our essential starting point is you - the human being and culture (I.e. ethnography).

Functional. Practice based, versatile and applicable. Simply add context, shake and apply.
