At the time of Paul Simon’s song “Think too much“ on his Hearts and Bones album someone said to me “that’s you David, you think too much” to which I replied “thank you”. “No“ they said “it’s not a compliment – if you want to get on just go with the organisational flow.”
But today with AI nudging us all to apply better quality thinking I feel vindicated in having always dialled up the merits of clear deep thinking. I have always tried to do my bit to encourage an organisational culture and structure that facilitate and nurtures power thinking in a way that builds individual’s Metacognition capabilities.
