Architecting the invisible: creating a culture of innovation | Greg Horowitt | TEDxSanDiego

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences.
Greg Horowitt's mission is to promote the promiscuity of ideas as a way to foster innovation. With an understanding that "thinking plus feeling equals believing," and the knowledge that our belief system underlies our decision process, the idea of innovation seem more accessible. Greg's talk also takes us through the 7 Rules of the Rainforest, where chaos is rewarded and ideas run wild.

Favorite quote of this talk: 'Without chaos, nothing can evolve.' Very interesting talk. I completely agree with him. Innovation is complex, but I think he explained well what it is and how it can be achieved.

Innovators are creators. Their entire being becomes engaged in the expression of a new understanding, expansion of consciousness, relationship, discovery, insight, vision, and truth.

Actions are a result of our beliefs and belief systems. Ex. Apple products says Greg. Loyalty is rewarded for showing love to the products.

Brilliant autopsy. Jan 2015 to Dec 2019 - only 213 likes. People, particularly managers, are generally repulsed by the mechanics of innovation, but they do like the buzzword. ;)

Dear F - Agreed. Bill Mollison did an essay on the decline & fall of petrocene dystopia. He quoted a think tank study of corporate mgmt. for the Fortune 100 types. They found that the current paradigm had become the "management strategy of functional stupidity" (of course, including greed, reward & punishment). Friends in the US aircraft industry, DOD contracting, & Big IT also see it being the 'normalization' of corruption, vice, graft, and cowardice. $ Thus, too few whistle-blowers, too few heroes, and too few top execs & Big Fish swingin' for the biggest crimes of all time. Sigh... The psychosocial momentum of dystopian/ecocidal corruption is so colossal that turning it around does seem overwhelming. $ Yet, as both Donald Schon's "Beyond the Stable State" and J. Diamond's "Collapse: How societies choose to fail or succeed" show, eventually the symptoms get so bad even the most heavily invested power freaks can't stand it anymore. Then the organized insanity ends. Mayans became jungle farmers & hunter-gatherers again. $ Then the next cycle begins. Schon and Diamond's team found that the new cycle can be much more wisdom driven, much less insane, less subject to corruption. Schon saw it as the evidence of the social learning systems in place. Anyway, doing our best is the best & only sane option. $ So, hopefully, Greg will keep "putting his bucks where his mouth is" and we'll get luckier faster.
