Det behöver verkligen inte vara på det här sättet. Man bygger inte fungerande system så här. Man byter ut ett gammalt system genom att stegvis ta bort beroenden och lyssna på vad användarna vill ha. Inte dra ur sladden en tisdag och hålla tummarna.
Digitaliseringen av samhället fortsätter smulas sönder som en lyckokaka fylld med floskler: dn.se/sverige/facket…
One of the best things about remote work is getting to see my 2yo son throughout the day and play with him as soon as I’m done. Working at the office or commuting would take some of that away. There’s always more work, but they’re only this young once.
There is no level of expertise at which going back to the basics is unhelpful. My graduate advisor who was a world-renowned scientist in his field used to, once or twice a week, open an undergraduate textbook to a random page and study it for hours. He always saw new things.
Ibland saknar verkligheten karta. Vem tänker du vara då? MSB har nu på regeringens uppdrag utvärderat tre storskaliga samhällskriser som inträffat det senaste året. Snöovädret på E22, Oljeutsläppet i Pukaviksbukten och Jordskredet längs E6 Stenungssund. Somligt har fungerat bra, annat har fungerat dåligt. Regeringen kommer noga analysera MSB:s slutsatser, men låt mig ändå tydliggöra förväntansbilden framåt: Myndigheter som har operativa roller måste präglas av handlingskraft och en kultur där man inte alltid väntar på bästa möjliga lägesbild, samordning av mandat etc. Duplicerat arbete är i värsta fall ett mindre problem än inget utfört arbete och tid är en kostnad som i värsta fall räknas i människoliv. Det kommer aldrig finnas en plan för allting och det kräver en kultur som längst ut i linjen leder till att beslut fattas och att åtgärder vidtas. Ingen ska gå runt och vara rädd, men om man måste välja är rädsla för att inte agera bättre än rädsla för att göra fel. Det kräver att alla lever med känslan att det ligger en mer till last att inte handla än att handla. Tyvärr vågar jag påstå att vi i Sverige av olika skäl kommit bort från en sådan kultur och detta är nu något som måste vridas rätt. Det ställer stora anspråk på ledarskapet i alla myndigheter med operativa roller. Det har draget till sin spets blivit tryggare att allt blir hundra procent korrekt än att något blir gjort. Det är bekvämare att hissa en fråga en nivå uppåt och vänta på besked, eller tolka sitt mandat snävare än bredare för att vänta på samordning eller en än mer högupplöst lägesbild som ursäkt för att inte agera. Saktfärdighet riskerar skada oss i skarpa lägen. Vi har enligt min uppfattning nått rättspositivismens bortre hörnstolpe när mandat i varje givet läge bara uppfattas vara något som explicit uttryckts i en plan eller föreskrift. Allt som inte står utskrivet på raderna riskerar uppfattas som förbjudet eller obehörigt, vilket riskerar skapa avvaktande förhållningssätt när verkligheten möter oss med komplexa problem som inte finns beskrivna i planerna. Det är en ordning som inte håller i rådande läge och förändringen måste till stor del komma genom kulturella förväntningar och det utövade ledarskapet. Jag säger detta som en generell iakttagelse utan närmare referens till specifika fall. Låt oss lära av det som varit och förstå att framtiden kräver mer av oss alla.
What follows from this is that we skeptical of those who say that problems need ‘holistic solutions’. In the real world, problems are solved incrementally; various imperfect steps in the right direction.
@vktrnrdlng Leaving out the plural s gives it that timeless cave dweller quality.
3) So, point 2 was actually a constraint on the idealized design. One more constraint: no science fiction. It's pointless to design in something that will not (at least in our lifetime) be available.
2) You design for the part of "the system" you control. Systems thinking can be paralyzing in revealing complexity. So: "dig where you stand"/do what you CAN do.
I find Russell Ackoff's concept of idealized design extremely interesting, but seldom hear of it in practice. I suspect the details of it got lost, as details often do. Some of the rules that I've used to help with change in companies:
"it was endangering the life of the astronaut, so we pleaded for time [...]. 'We should think more about this,' we said, to which he replied (standing under an IBM THINK sign), “Thinking is a luxury we can no longer afford.”" - secretsofconsulting.blogspot.com/2017/10/my-mos…

@NicolaLindgren Open space can be very enjoyable and effective, if done right.
Today's #uglyinfographic speculates around the eternal question "Is #agile/#Scrum/#kanban/#lean/… good or bad?" I included the moral of the story in the bottom corner just to be sure.
I saw yet another clean and rational "how we do it" model on LinkedIn, which inspired this #uglyinfographics
