Busy in my mind with System Design, Thinking Skills, Mythology.

Some people divide the world in two types of people, Trekkies and Losties, I am more a Lostie.

Two things worry me;

KIDS :
I worry about the schools of our children. Our toddler of 2 masters the iPad, and is getting bored of ‘aim and click’ games. He will enter primary school with iPad 4. Learning for him is a whole different realm. I was bored in highschool, he will be more. University will freak him out.

LEADERS :
Most of todays organizations can’t seriously look into the future and there is nobody to blame; looking at history we are just going through a normal, cultural pattern of diversification. The result is falling down to barbarianism. We just need to keep our heads cool on top of the mountain we build and hope we put enough cams along the way to break our natural fall.

The challenges for kids and leaders have a lot of similarities, broadly speaking they both enter a new realm, both unprepared, both willing to learn and having fun while discovering life as it is.

This blog is a way to find focus in my activities.

For the record, I am doing projects in the Netherlands and Romania, lived in Vienna and now seeing our son grow in Arad. Wannabee SciFi writer.
