Learning about this tool some time in 2022, and my brain felt so relieved to be able to articulate what is in my head onto paper : to bridge communities, resources, interests, wants and needs, offers and requests. In 2023, I asked Michael Ong and Tim Wieringa if they will be conducting another session, so that more people can be introduced to the tool. I firmly believed that more people need to be have an opportunity to interact with it, and experience it. And another session was organised and conducted. For this session, I invited Aifa Ahmad and Amy Kang Metaphysics to experience and experiment with it, and they found it useful too! So, this year, we decided, to make it available to as many people as possible, in the form of a website! So, if you feel you have a thought, an idea, a community, that will benefit from articulating the thoughts on paper, and then sharing it to others before meeting with them, you might want to consider trying this out! It was such a fun and playful process with Michael, Tim and Tze Chin Tang crafting the website, and I learnt so much from them about Ai (capybaras, sharks, dogs and cats were all part of the process, together with #chatgpt, #gemini and the works!) Douglas OLoughlin, PhD, Alvin Peh, SYUKRI Azman, Chuen Chuen Yeo 杨荃荃, Peiyi Woo, Clarice Song, Ruoyi Hong, Yoek Ling Yong, Debra Lam, Gena Tay, try it, use it, and let us know what your experience of this is like! 😊

Innovation has become a load of codswallop…..most companies say they are doing it, but they are not... 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐞, 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬:  ✔️ Metamorphosis ➔ a change of the form or nature of a thing or person into a completely different one. ✔️ Upheaval ➔ a violent or sudden change or disruption to something. ✔️ Novelty ➔ never been done before, unchartered territory. ✔️ Risky ➔ high failure rate, unpredictable. ✔️Expensive ➔ only the few can fund true innovation with it's enormous losses. 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐍𝐎𝐓:  ✖️ Iteration ➔ a new version, next generation, additional features. ✖️ Digitisation ➔ wrapping technology around a traditional experience, product or business. ✖️ Attainable by most ➔ achievable within the parameters of most businesses’ capability, financial resources or their regulatory landscape. 🚀The world is in a state of perpetual disruption, staying ahead requires reinventing the way we think about strategy, innovation, and change. That’s why I wouldn’t miss The Reinvention Summit, Dublin April 29/30th 2025: ✅ Action-Oriented Insights: This summit will go beyond theory, offering hands-on, implementation-focused sessions for reinvention, designed to equip us with tools we can put into practice right away. ✅ Big-Picture Thinking: It will challenge us to explore systemic questions, like how to build cultures of continuous reinvention. ✅ Global Community: It will be a hub for leaders and innovators committed to making real, attainable and actionable progress.
