This week's Extra Alarm insights come to us from Chris Paskett, a battalion chief with Eugene Springfield (Oregon) Fire. Paskett details how incident commanders can perform traditional fireground after-action reviews through brief tailboard discussions, capturing audio and tactical worksheets, and conducting thorough audio reviews. Additionally, he covers how to apply AARs to non-operational settings, including employee interactions. By assessing their own performance and preparing for group AARs, supervisors can foster growth, model accountability, and enhance overall team efficiency. Check out the original article here.
Danish researchers have announced the discovery of a collection of wooden pieces placed in a circle that are believed to date back thousands of years ago.丹麦的研究人员宣布发现了一堆圆圈集合的木材，据信可以追溯到数千年前。The team says the wood pieces and some other objects were found during building work in the northwestern Danish town of Aars. The discovery led the researchers to suggest the people who placed the wooden pieces might have been linked to a group who built Britain's famous Stonehenge stone structure.团队说，在丹麦西北城镇AARS的建筑工程中发现了木块和其他一些物体。 这一发现导致研究人员建议将木制碎片放置的人们可能与建立英国著名的巨石石结构的团体有关。A total of 45 ancient wood pieces were discovered underground last week during building, or construction, work. The pieces formed a circle about 30 meters across.上周在建筑物或施工工作期间，总共发现了45块古老的木材。 这些碎片形成了一个约30米的圆圈。In an email to the French news agency AFP, Sidsel Wahlin of the town's Vesthimmerlands museum described the discovery as “a once in a lifetime find.”在给法国新闻社法新社的电子邮件中，该镇的Vesthimmerlands博物馆的Sidsel Wahlin描述了这一发现是“一生的发现”。The circle "points to a strong connection with the British henge world," she added.她补充说，圈子“指向与英国亨格世界有着密切的联系”。The British Museum says on its website the first stones placed at Stonehenge, in southern England, are believed to have started arriving there around 3000 BC.大英博物馆说，在其网站上，据信在英格兰南部的巨石阵放置的第一批石头已经开始到达公元前3000年左右。The Danish researchers said they were also looking to see whether an inner circle might also exist where the wooden pieces were found. Wahlin noted that in the past, other wood circles had been found on the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea.丹麦的研究人员说，他们还希望查看发现木质碎片的地方是否也可能存在。 瓦林指出，过去，在波罗的海的丹麦岛上发现了其他木圈。But Wahlin said the circle in Aars was "the first one of this larger type that we can properly investigate.”但是瓦林说，AARS中的圆圈是“我们可以正确调查的较大类型中的第一个。”Archeologists working at the building site also found an ancient settlement that included a leader's grave and a bronze sword.在建筑工地工作的考古学家还发现了一个古老的定居点，其中包括领导者的坟墓和铜剑。Wahlin said her team was still carrying out detailed work in the area in an effort to estimate the age and purpose of the materials.沃林说，她的团队仍在该地区进行详细的工作，以估算材料的年龄和目的。In particular, the archeologists are now searching for religious-connected materials known as "ritual deposits." These might include flint arrow heads and small knives or daggers.特别是，考古学家现在正在寻找称为“仪式矿床”的宗教材料。 这些可能包括火石箭头，小刀或匕首。Wahlin said the researchers will continue looking for links between the Aars site and other groups, such as those who built Stonehenge. She added the influence of other groups had already been found in some objects and graves found in Denmark.沃林说，研究人员将继续寻找AARS网站与其他团体（例如建造巨石阵的人）之间的联系。 她补充说，在丹麦发现的一些物体和坟墓中已经发现了其他群体的影响。
Introducing a new Android UI Framework like Jetpack Compose into an existing app is easy right? Import some AARs and code away. But what if your app has specific performance goals to meet, has existing design components, integrations with navigation and logging frameworks? That is where Summer and her team come in who handle large-scale migrations for Instagram. They aim to provide developers with the best possible experience when working on our code bases, even if that requires some temporary pain on the side of infrastructure teams that have to maintain multiple implementations at once. Why Summer thinks it is worth it, how they approach the rollout of a new framework and so much more is all discussed in episode 70. Got feedback?

Debriefing and communication practices in business need to be structured, regular, and focused on ensuring clarity, accountability, and continuous improvement. Key Principles of Military Debriefing and Communication: After-Action Reviews (AARs): The military regularly conducts debriefs (AARs) to analyze missions, identify successes, and pinpoint areas for improvement. The focus is on factual assessment, not blame, ensuring the entire team learns from each operation. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Communication in the military often adheres to pre-defined formats and protocols, reducing ambiguity and ensuring consistency. Focus on Mission Objectives: Every communication serves a purpose aligned with the overall mission, ensuring clarity and efficiency in decision-making. Accountability: Team members are expected to acknowledge and act on their responsibilities, with detailed feedback loops to ensure tasks are completed effectively.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Brad discuss the transition from fentanyl lollipops to SuFentanyl in military medicine. They explore the characteristics of SuFentanyl, its advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional fentanyl, and the practical implications of administering these drugs in the field. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding dosage, effectiveness, and the challenges faced by medical personnel in high-stress environments. In this conversation, Dennis discusses the critical aspects of medical training, particularly in the context of administering narcotics and managing pain in field care. He emphasizes the importance of After Action Reviews (AARs) for collecting data and improving practices, the need for hands-on experience with narcotics, and the risks associated with long-term use. The discussion also covers the transition between different narcotics and the importance of titrating to effect based on patient response, particularly respiratory rate. Dennis advocates for thorough training and preparation to ensure medics can make informed decisions in high-pressure situations. Takeaways Fentanyl lollipops are being replaced by SuFentanyl tablets. SuFentanyl is significantly stronger than fentanyl. The characteristics of SuFentanyl make it effective for pain management. Lollipops were easier to administer in field settings. Sublingual tablets have absorption challenges compared to lollipops. Swallowing the tablet reduces its effectiveness drastically. Field conditions can affect drug absorption and efficacy. Medical personnel need to adapt to new drug administration methods. Dosage adjustments may be necessary for effective pain relief. Feedback from field use is crucial for optimizing drug protocols. AARs are crucial for improving medical practices. Hands-on experience with narcotics is essential for comfort. Understanding the risks of addiction is vital in narcotic use. Transitioning between narcotics requires careful consideration. Titrating to effect is key in pain management. Respiratory rate is a critical indicator in narcotic administration. Training should focus on real-world scenarios and decision-making. Medicine requires flexibility beyond strict algorithms. Discussing potential injury patterns can improve team response. Preparation and training can prevent mistakes in the field.

In today's complex and rapidly changing organizational environments, continuous improvement isn't just a luxury—it's a necessity. One invaluable tool for driving this improvement is the After Action Review (AAR). Originally developed and refined within military contexts, the AAR is a structured and straightforward method for reflecting on events, identifying successes and shortcomings, and pinpointing actionable steps for future enhancement. Through the lens of the AAR, leaders can foster a culture of transparency, accountability, and continuous learning within their teams. By systematically addressing What happened?, What went right?, and What went wrong?, leaders derive insights that empower their teams to replicate successes and mitigate failures. Ultimately, effective use of AARs can transform isolated experiences into collective knowledge, driving sustained organizational growth and peak performance. Timestamped Overview 00:00:50 - Introduction Scott introduces the topic of organizational improvement using the After Action Review (AAR) tool. 00:01:19 - What Is an AAR? A concise explanation of what an AAR is and its primary purpose in assessing and improving performance after major events or training exercises. 00:02:12 - When to Use an AAR Scott shares practical scenarios of when to carry out an AAR, from training events to business sales pitches. 00:02:43 - How to Use an AAR Scott breaks down the three primary questions that form the backbone of an AAR:What happened?What went right?What went wrong? 00:03:57 - Importance of Double Downing on Successes The critical need to focus on what went right to replicate success in future endeavors. 00:04:32 - Addressing What Went Wrong The importance of understanding faults but focusing on solutions to improve rather than blame. 00:06:01 - Psychological Safety Why establishing a psychologically safe environment is critical for the success of an AAR. 00:06:59 - Timeliness in Conducting an AAR The necessity of performing an AAR soon after the event to ensure accurate recollections and effective improvements. 00:07:35 - Keeping it Concise Scott stresses the importance of keeping the AAR process brief and to the point to maintain engagement and effectiveness. 00:08:25 - Implementing AAR Findings Steps to turn AAR insights into actionable changes for continuous improvement. 00:08:58 - Real-Life Example Scott shares a personal anecdote from his time as an operations officer, illustrating the practicality and impact of conducting an AAR.

Despite having the tools for success, some organizations often struggle to translate processes and training into effective action. This is not only evident in reading after action reports or ‘AARs' from disasters, and human attacks, it is also true in the world of project and change management. Upon reading these AARs you'll consistently find three key themes among the lessons learned: a disconnect between process and practice, a "knowledge-action" gap, and a lack of a culture of action.Today I'm going to equip listeners with practical strategies to transform well-intentioned plans into tangible results by focusing on process optimization, making time for training, and prioritizing realistic practice.Thank you all for listening to Bridging the Gap Between Knowledge and Action. I do hope this episode ignites your passion to make a difference in your own knowledge gaps, and your actions begin to transform not only yourself, but those around you in a positive way. This podcast is available on Apple, Spotify, and most other platforms, where you can also, and I ask that you do, leave a review, subscribe, and share with others. Stay safe out there, know that hope ignites and that action transforms, and I wish you all, Godspeed, Kevin

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.03.26.534279v1?rss=1 Authors: Meineke, B., Heimgärtner, J., Caridha, R., Block, M., Kimler, K. J., Pires, M. F., Landreh, M., Elsässer, S. J. Abstract: Genetic code expansion via stop codon suppression is a powerful strategy to engineer proteins. Suppressor tRNAs are aminoacylated with noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) by dedicated aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRS) and direct ncAA incorporation site-specifically during translation. These pairs of tRNA/aaRS must be orthogonal to the host's tRNAs, aaRS and natural amino acids. Pyrrolysyl-tRNA (PylT)/PylRS pairs from methanogenic archaea, as well as engineered tRNA/aaRS pairs derived from bacteria, are used for genetic code expansion in mammalian cells. Amber suppression is routinely achieved by transient introduction of the components leading to short-term and heterogeneous expression. Here, we demonstrate that stable integration of tRNA/aaRS genes allows for efficient, genetically encoded ncAA incorporation in diverse mammalian cell lines. We extend a general plasmid design and PiggyBac (PB) integration strategy developed for the Methanosarcina mazei PylT/PylRS pair to genomic integration of two tRNA/aaRS pairs of bacterial origin. We further explore suppression of ochre and opal stop codons and parallel incorporation of two distinct ncAAs, both accessible for click chemistry, by dual suppression in stable cell lines. Clonal selection allows for isolation of cells with high dual suppression efficiency and dual site-specific fluorescent labeling of a cell surface receptor using bioorthogonal click chemistries on live mammalian cells.

Online dating has become more complicated than ever. Learning how to verify that the person you're talking to is actually the person in the dating profile can save you from heartbreak and financial loss. Today's guests are Kathy Waters and Bryan Denny. Kathy Waters is an expert advocate and an educator on the subject of online romance scams. Kathy is co-founder, along with retired Colonel Bryan Denny, of the non-profit organization Advocating Against Romance Scammers. Both have been working for safer platforms since 2016 with the same goals in mind: justice for victims and educating all online of the cybercrime known to tear people down emotionally, psychologically, and financially. Show Notes: [1:18] - Bryan shares his experience with someone using his name and images in fake profiles. [3:00] - Kathy's mother's friend was a victim of a romance scam that used Bryan's photos. [4:36] - AARS became a non-profit last year and works to educate not only users, but lawmakers, too. [6:01] - Dating profiles of someone in military uniform is a red flag. [7:41] - There are many red flags to look for and there will often be more than one indicator. [8:50] - Ask a friend in the military about an unusual profile or reach out to Kathy and Bryan. [10:23] - It's tough to get people to report these interactions. [11:40] - Prior to Covid, the demographic was more elderly aged people. But a younger crowd has been affected since Covid. [13:22] - Younger people are more likely to come forward and talk about their experiences than an older demographic. [14:41] - It is also therapeutic to come forward and talk about it. [16:07] - Scammers tend to have a similar story, working out of the country. [17:51] - Bryan shares that he continues to receive messages about his photo circulating on fake profiles and the stories are all very similar. [20:07] - Bryan explains how scammers manipulate videos to pretend to be interacting on video calls. [22:23] - If you're concerned about interacting with someone through video calls, you can ask them to do something like touch their head or look a certain way. [24:01] - What do you do if you know you are interacting with a scammer? [26:04] - Scammers share where they have had success with other scammers. [27:43] - If you are watching this happen to someone else, there are ways to approach it with them. Outsiders tend to see the red flags sooner. [28:54] - Unfortunately, they may not believe you. Try to educate them on red flags. [29:46] - There are support groups for helping manage the emotional toll this takes on a victim. [32:09] - What laws are in place for this? [33:19] - Scammers are typically in another country. They are hard to go after legally because they are not in the United States. [34:49] - On their website, there are commonly used photos in fake profiles and ways to report a scam. Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

Rob Smedley, CEO and Founder of Smedley Group, joins me to explore After Action Reviews (AARs) as a tool for driving positive change.We delve into a lot more than AARs though, as Rob has built his company around a very clear mission that is about disrupting the motorsport industry. He is also taking the lead in the business by very intentionally creating a team that can develop, innovate, and perform at the same high standards that he is used to from Formula 1. His focus on building the culture, behaviours and expectations that are necessary to succeed in business today are what drove Rob to engage with the AAR process.When we hit ‘pause' and ask the right questions, we are able to highlight strengths and find out what can be done differently next time to make the experience more positive and make it easier to engage and perform.Yet, in many organisations, people feel the need to cover their back and find who's to blame when things don't go as well as they could, rather than focus on the learning. An After Action Review, within a climate of psychological safety, provides huge insight that is directly relevant to drive positive change.Rob shares how the AAR has impacted on practice. He has found the process so valuable that an interim AAR is on the cards; why wait until the end of a project to review it?More about RobRob Smedley has over 20 years of experience in the world of motorsport, having spent time at multiple F1 teams including Jordan, as a Race Engineer at Ferrari and as Head of Vehicle Performance at Williams before taking on the Director of Data systems at Formula 1 from 2019 to 2021. He now works with some of the world's leading technology brands helping them deliver solutions as well as running his own advanced technology and motorsport business. In between times he acts as a consultant to F1 helping them shape their technical roadmap.Links to contact Rob:LinkedIn: Rob SmedleyWebsite: totalkartingmotorsport.comResources & ReferencesFind out more about the AAR process in my blog: After Action Review - It's Time for Change (itstimeforchange.co.uk)Rob's disruption to the status quo is welcomed (by most - see the comments): LinkedIn: Lisa LLoyd: Purpose Driven Employee ExperienceContact details for Lisa LLoyd:LinkedIn : www.linkedin.com/in/lisapsychologyWebsite: www.itstimeforchange.co.ukSign up for Lisa's Monthly Bulletin: www.itstimeforchange.co.uk/jointheclubEmail: lisa@itstimeforchange.co.uk
How Do We Take Emergency Management Seriously If We Do Not Support Research?There has been a debate about whether or not someone should have a college degree to be an emergency manager. The second side of the argument is whether we should have emergency management degree programs. For full disclosure, I am an emergency management educator. If you read or listen to the Emergency Management Network, you know that I also write and research trends in emergency management. The field of emergency management is "the discipline and profession of applying science, technology, planning, and management to deal with extreme events that can injure or kill large numbers of people, do extensive property damage, and disrupt community life. When such events occur and cause extensive harm, they are called disasters" (Hoetmer, 1991). This definition eloquently defines emergency management, explaining what a disaster is, and exemplifies how academia and research provide conceptual and practical tools for emergency managers. Researchers tell us who we are, what we do, how and why we do the things we do, and provide guidance and advice as to where we should be going.Emergency management relies on researchers to observe, evaluate, and provide references and reports offering recommendations; reflect on how and what we have done; and help us define, recognize, and understand the multitude of issues we face in emergency management. Dr. Carol Cwick argues that similar disciplines fund research through education programs and advance beyond a mere job to a profession. She continues by stressing that without higher education programs, the field of emergency management is doomed to disappear and be absorbed by public safety programs. Her full interview will be published soon. How do we take a field or discipline seriously if we do not research the issues and the programs' effectiveness? There are areas of study dedicated to the supply chain in the business world. They study disruptions, forecast needs and increasing product varieties, shorter product life cycles, ever-growing expectations of consumers, and rising cost competition due to globalization. The business makes forecasting essential to matching supply with demand. Hundreds of publications, TV news programming, think tanks, and thousands of books are dedicated to business research. You rarely hear people questioning the need for business and MBA education programs. Over the last few decades, Scholars researching emergency management have accumulated literature. This has opened great opportunities for further development of EM theories and strategies.I was asked why we even care to do disaster research. The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction estimates that globally from 2000 to 2012, disasters killed 1.2 million people, affected 2.9 billion others, and claimed $1.7 trillion in material damage. The United States has moved into a "new normal" of frequent, billion-dollar hurricanes, eight of the ten costliest occurring since 2004. The Department of Defense warns that climate change threatens national security and will cause global political instability due to "prolonged drought and flooding … food shortages, desertification, population dislocation, mass migration, and sea level rise." Not a week goes by without news of a new technological "accident" and the long-term malignant impacts of chemicals, radiation, plastics, and petroleum—the material markers of technological society—on our bodies, communities, and the planet.How do Colleges and Universities Make A Difference In Emergency Management? Academic research looks beyond emergency management's immediate needs; the university's role involves exploring all phases of disaster. As an institution of higher education and research, they, by definition, are responsible for contributing to the body of knowledge for emergency management. And to society as a whole. In addition to expanding education programs, institutions study the intersection of disasters and policy. An example of how research contributes to society is the studies completed on post-disaster homelessness. The roles of universities in researchResearch may be one of the most misunderstood components of emergency management. It is often regarded by disaster responders as an esoteric undertaking carried out by individuals with little understanding of "the real world" and less understanding of disaster issues.In reality, research into disasters is one of the most vital functions that can be carried out by those involved in such events. I had the opportunity to interview Dr. Daniel P. Aldrich, Director of the Security and Resilience Studies Program at Northeastern University. He researches post-disaster recovery. Aldrich's book "Black Wave: How Networks and Governance Shaped Japan's 3/11 Disasters" is an excellent example of how disaster research can shape policy and how emergency management professionals approach preparedness and recovery. I am not arguing that we need to have a bunch of academics lead the way. The best disaster researchers are practitioners with substantial experience in disaster response and planning because they know what questions must be asked. The research is to determine the truth about the event itself. As Craig Fugate stated, lessons learned and not implemented are lessons observed. Mistakes and missed steps will continuously be repeated without such efforts and application of the resulting knowledge to the disaster planning and response process.Until the last decade, disaster research had been limited to narrative descriptions of the event(s) that precipitated the disaster, reports on the number of persons killed, injured, or displaced, and descriptions of what interventions were or were not applied. After Action Reports (AAR) could be a way for researchers to learn how to improve response and explore how effective planning and exercises are. Unfortunately, many of these reports have been biased and self-serving, as the responding agencies have performed them. AARs have had little value in eliminating or modifying hazards, reducing risks, improving capacities, reducing vulnerability, enhancing preparedness for responses to future events, or designing and implementing future relief activities. AARs do not give much insight into how the response and actions may affect future responses. Disaster research is performed retrospectively, after the impact phase, and during the recovery activities. This is because collecting information during a disaster has ethical considerations and may be deemed inappropriate. The design, acceptance, and implementation of such studies in these settings remain tasks for the future. Universities and other agencies should jointly consider and improve the above matter. Why Emergency Management Must Support Education ProgramsThe roles of universities span all phases of the disaster cycle. The university is essential during the impact, emergency phase, risk reduction strategies, preparedness, and mitigation. The roles of the university in disaster management include disaster education, relief, and support to the affected community, and grasping the situation from a research perspective. We also have significant roles in mid-term and long-term support, such as academic contributions, policy proposals, A university also has a role in educating, developing scenarios, and providing basic and advanced training. Furthermore, by establishing coalitions, it becomes possible for the university to do research suited to the needs of the particular community.Universities provide a universe of knowledge and expertise that can be readily mobilized when needed. It is often in the interdisciplinary overlap of professional domains where the solutions lie. Universities can readily provide the breadth and width of skills conducive to finding the optimum solutions. With strong management skills and available assets, academia can make a significant and lasting contribution to the profession of emergency management.Register HereSupporters https://www.disastertech.com/https://www.titanhst.com/https://www.ndemevent.com/ Get full access to The Emergency Management Network at emnetwork.substack.com/subscribe
Gjest: Haakon Aars (spesialist i klinisk sexologi NACS, spesialist i psykiatri og samfunnsmedisin) opplever ofte at hans pasienter har lagt seksualiteten på hylla. - De tror gjerne det er slik det skal være, at de nå har blitt for gamle eller at de har for mange plager til at de skal fokusere på seksualitet. Aars påpeker at seksualitet kan være så mangt, og at intimitet og hudkontakt er kjempeviktig for menneskers velvære. - Kommunikasjon er kjempeviktig, både i parforhold men også komunikasjonen mellom helsepersonell og pasienter. Leger må bli flinkere til å spørre pasienten om hvordan det går med pasientens seksualitet, mener Aars.

We're talking about what the project market cap looks like using a fun tool called NFT price, floor.com. Well, we're getting into it. We crossed a hundred episodes. We officially have done over a hundred episodes and we're coming up on our, our one, one year anniversary. [00:00:21] I feel like, uh, that's a, that's a big accomplishment. And in NFT years, what. Time seven . Yeah, I feel like we've been in this for, for quite a long time. You know, it is nice looking at some, some NFTs and realizing that they are now long term , uh, gains, you know, not everything is just short term gains and, uh, well, you know, certainly not all gains anyway, but you know, it is nice when the, some of those get into the longer term holds. [00:00:48] Um, but yeah, it feels like a very long time we've been doing this, George. Yeah. It's, uh, it's been interesting. I was looking back at some of our earlier episodes, also episode idea. We should be like, have we learned anything it's a year later, we'll find out when our, when our anniversary anniversary is and, and go for that. [00:01:05] But there's some early projects I'm like just laughing at. And I'm like, oh, I remember when I was into that. But you know, just this time, last year we were looking at metaverse stuff. Right. We were like, oh, this kind of seems like a thing. And it was before all the announcement and pieces like that, but getting. [00:01:20] You know, land, uh, land sales that have gone, like, I'd say like the full circle at this point of beginning, middle, and now, you know, end as we were looking at what was the. And Ft lands. What was it? Ft. Worlds. Those are the ones Ft, worlds. They were well, I mean, they got up over 10 at one point. I think they're bad. [00:01:37] No, they start like this time last year they were at like 0.1 and I was like, well, this is a joke, cuz I feel like they didn't ask permission at all from Microsoft on what they're building on. And they're on an old version of it didn't matter. The tech didn't matter. But then it does because obviously Microsoft issued that whole like, Hey, uh, you guys can't do that. [00:01:56] This is, you know, this is our land and you kind of like quasi built on it, unintended and you know, the, the price is taken a, an ax to it. So, yeah, what's, what's kind of amazing. Here is I'm looking at the, uh, the floor price and it's it's 0.85. Um, but we're, do recall that. I believe I actually, uh, got out at 0.7. [00:02:17] So as much as it's fallen, it's still , it's still above where you were. I thought you sold one above one at one point, but. I don't think I did actually, but you know, um, I don't need to go back and look at it to confirm. It's not like you can find it permanently on the blockchain forever and ever. Yeah. [00:02:34] Right. yeah. If we're playing that game, I've got, I've got more than mine, uh, fair share of that front, but you know, getting into it, you know, of today, what do you see in the news going on here? [00:02:44] Oh, my gosh, look open C introduces new stolen item policy. I think this one's in response to, to our, our last episode, I assume that they heard, they felt the rest. They were put on blast by P a N Ft. And you know, they've, they've certainly, uh, they've introduced a new stolen item policy. So I guess now you actually have to file a police report within seven days of the theft. [00:03:11] Um, and there are more options. For the new buyers to, to get that removed. Um, I tend to see a lot of details on, on what those options are. Um, and then, you know, they basically are still recommending that, uh, people go to another marketplace if, if they are having problems. So, you know, it's, it's something, but, you know, I guess you still get careful don't use a different marketplace. [00:03:35] Yeah. I mean, I, I guess maybe they should put something in there that you can't, you can't resell a, re-list an item after purchasing it for seven days or something, and you actually wanted to make sure the customers were in the clear when they bought it. But, you know, I don't think that's gonna happen. [00:03:51] Yeah. It's something, obviously we're, we're moving markets. We have a lot of power. We try to use it responsibly. This is a good first step though. I also noted that, you know, they're, they're, they're seeing that there's like falsified people submitting these transactions. So like, hypothetically, like let's say, you're like, you know, you're frustrated that you sold something and you're like, oh, uh, I was hacked, uh, it was stolen. [00:04:15] Give it a back. Right? Like you need a police report. You need to have some sort of. Follow on of, uh, of law and repercussion. If you're, if you're faking that, not to say that people, I have no clue what percentage either way is, but they're, they're starting to realize a touch of responsibility in the process, which is important because what's happening now. [00:04:37] Won't scale. They can't. Yeah, I am. I'm looking forward to seeing some of these police reports though. And, and, you know, just imagining what those conversations will be like. Well, the truth is. You know, like insurance fraud is real filing for fake loss and stolen items like that, that comes with severe consequence, you know, think insurance fraud. [00:05:01] So, you know, to that end, you know, there is other elements of liability. Like we have homeowner's insurance, we have renters insurance when something gets stolen and resold, like you are able to go to various bodies. So this is like almost even, you know, the start of, especially if you're pulling in the police, the next step is saying like, oh, I potentially could. [00:05:19] Individual insurance for myself. And they could look at, you know, also the blockchain and also in researching it. Guess what, as smart as we all think we are and like hiding things. If you're not, it's all on the blockchain, you can and will be found if you're dealing to a wallet that you ultimately end up owning and pulling back to yourself. [00:05:37] So they're, um, you know, it's a road to legitimacy and I think there's a lot of second order thoughts that kind of come from what open C is suggesting here. Yeah, well, I'm glad to see they did something good work, good response to, to, uh, our, our podcast reason to open sea. I know you're listening still on point. [00:05:58] All right, our next, next headline here. We've got, uh, Reddit, they're migrating their community points, which have been part of the, the system for forever. They're MI migrating these toum Nova. So this is a layer two on Ethereum, um, will be powering their, their community point system. So this is very much moving over to the blockchain. [00:06:17] You know, we've talked about how things, you know, something like Reddit is very. I kind of already used to this sort of, uh, idea of, of digital ownership. And, uh, here it is. They're, they're moving over. Toum I think this is also interesting because you're seeing web two social move into web three, and they're only doing it on certain, as I understand subreddit, such as the R you know, subreddit cryptocurrency, where the community is kind of ready for this, but you. [00:06:49] I think you're getting into, how do you make micropayments micro compensation for micro contributions of content to a network that makes money, right? You have a whole bunch of essentially unpaid writers when it comes down to it on social media platforms, putting out general content. And this is the start of saying like, whoa, how would we potentially share some of that value? [00:07:13] Push it out rather than consolidate. and, you know, I, I think Reddit is, is perfect. Cuz you can divide this by, you know, the, the subreddits, the communities can decide whether or not they wanna compensate the group members or not. [00:07:29] Yeah. I mean, I, yeah, I mean, we talked about, I think it makes sense. We'll start seeing this power. Other, uh, other point systems are seeing different, uh, layers, par power, other point systems here soon. I think, you know, we've talked about, I think airlines are, are right for this as well. So, uh, I wouldn't be surprised if we see, uh, some big changes or big announcements like this, uh, coming up in the next few months. [00:07:50] And of course, arbitrary is a layer two on top of Ethereum. [00:07:54] Uh, speaking of. Companies getting into, uh, crypto and NFTs. We've got Starbucks. I think you had actually mentioned this, but uh, little more information on this. They are, uh, going into NFTs. You'll be able to, uh, earn these by instead of just getting points when you, um, When you, uh, buy at Starbucks, you able to earn actual NFTs, you know, show how, how big of a, a big shot you are at, uh, at Starbucks, I guess. [00:08:20] Um, you know, it's, it makes sense for them as well. You know, it's, it's a place where people are very used to ordering digitally and, and even earning points and, and, uh, you can definitely see, um, see the use cases here for them. I'm excited. They actually haven't announced which blockchain, but they are definitely gonna be choosing an environmentally sustainable one, cuz it's definitely part of their ethos. [00:08:43] And also the backlash would be amazing. And there's kind of like a, a rumor baked in here that they're potentially waiting for. Ethereum's merge, which is penciled in for September. To potentially make an announcement. But if I were a betting man, and I am, I would bet polygon. So put it on the list of things that three a is, is predicting and will probably come true. [00:09:05] I'd go polygon. What would you say? Yeah, I mean, that would be my guess as well. I was actually somewhat surprised that Reddit wasn't on polygon just because they have INED so many, uh, major deals already in have more, uh, real, real world use case or use experience than, um, many of the other layers at this point. [00:09:24] All right. And, uh, let's see, speaking of, you know, the various Ethereum layers, we've got suggested tentative dates for the merge, the merge is coming. It sounds like we've got, there are two potential dates suggested, looks like it may fall around September 15th. Um, so we will see, um, that was, that will be, let's see the Paris upgrade, uh, the be. [00:09:48] Upgrade will target September 6th. So this is, this is right around the corner. This is it's real, definitely seeing some, um, uh, some price movement in Ethereum recently, and gotta think that the merge is on people's minds when they are buying. [00:10:02] So the, what is the recent test network? The final test network, uh, went through successfully as of the other, yes, go girly. I believe it is G O E R L. I, although it's yeah. I wanted you to. Pronounce that . Yeah. Which I mean, Gole, Gole, I, I don't know, you know, it's, uh, I believe it's a German city. Um, so I, with a, in the O is got, got some of those dots over it. [00:10:28] So, you know, I'm a great successful one, two, it was successful. Absolutely. I mean, it's, uh, you know, since. The summer has been impressive in the development timeline seems like things are going as planned. And, uh, the merge is hasn't been pushed back. It sounds like it's actually been moved up somewhat. Um, so, you know, as we're recording this, we're in mid August and, uh, you know, we're about a month away. [00:10:52] It's exciting. You know, I think it's, it's hard to say what has been priced in or not priced into this. I'm not smart enough to tell you. I will say you have a lot of factors going for you, the biggest and maybe underpriced piece, maybe the environmental component, like this is the number two, uh, crypto currency currency platform. [00:11:14] And it's by going. By effectively going, you know, green-ish right. And sort of greatly reducing going from like 4% emission to 0.4% emission. It becomes this very acceptable, logical choice on, on a lot of levels. Not only just to build on, but to invest in. So. That alone could, could move. I think a lot of, of the market, not to mention the actual underpinning of the code, we've touched on all of this already, but you know, in some senses, if you're in the NFT game, maybe we begin to get to the road of stability. [00:11:49] In price, like we're, we're carrying less, I think in the game of empty about what price Ethereum is though. It definitely matters but the freaking stability, because right now let's just be honest. Like if you think this price is gonna two X in the next 30 days, are you really about to like buy that next? [00:12:07] You know, G maybe not probably waiting. So, um, a cooling effect, maybe we'll talk about volume prices in a bit. Anything else on the. On the radar for you thinking about the, the merge of. [00:12:21] No. I mean, I think it's, I mean, you're spot on just saying that, you know, the price movement E is not good for, for NFTs. Um, you know, we'll get into some of this a bit more. I think, um, we're talking about the project MarketCast but you know, we, we definitely have seen, um, maybe some, not as many transactions as, as maybe, or not as much volume as we, uh, maybe would like in the NFT area, but. [00:12:46] You know, hopefully once the price settles down a bit, we will see that pick back up again. Awesome. Well, we don't have a specific affordable project unless you're gonna surprise me with something. So I thought maybe we'd take a quick look at what is on what is on your shopping list or at the very least, what have you picked up in the last week or so that you haven't talked about? [00:13:07] Yeah, that's a good question. I've, you know, I've been putting some bids out there. Um, you know, I was looking at some of the, uh, Um, the col de decentralized, you know, put some bids haven't had any of those hit yet, but notice some people getting those at you already have one though, right? You're trying to, you're trying to gobble up with, I don't, I don't have one at this point, actually. [00:13:25] No, I sold both of those. So we both, when people were accumulating them in order to, uh, try to get the ascended version. Um, so that's now done. That's where you needed. I think five of them. Um, so they're, they were butt up. It's gotten a little softer there. Uh, haven't had those come through, but I've been putting offers in. [00:13:41] Few different places. How about you? Have you had anything hit? Yeah, a little bit. I landed, my I've been talking about it. AARs, you know, putting my E through my mouth is because I, it hit below my threshold and I am gonna pat myself on the back. Cause I weighted, unlike in the past I showed a touch of discipline. [00:14:00] So I weighted it down from when I was hovering around 0.7, five to 0.5. And I, you know, one of my bids was accepted. Arguably, maybe I could have picked it up for 0.4, five, and now who knows if it drops further. It hit to this price. Um, it's fun to be in that, you know, sort of community. I think it's, uh, as I mentioned before, has a lot of upside in mic Johnson as somebody's gonna continue to hustle, it seems so I'm still digging in and like, you know, as excited as he can be to join another, another project. [00:14:28] Yeah. I mean, it there's, there's a lot of listings out there right now. We've definitely seen, um, I, I mean it, in a lot of the projects that I'm looking at, we, I'm seeing more listings. I think, you know, that does the price movement recently has got some people thinking maybe I'd like to, uh, to, to cash in some NFPS for E um, you know, I, I, I'm not terribly concerned about, um, Some of the E or NFT prices coming down. [00:14:52] Um, in my opinion, you know, these are things that sort of stable, you know, they, they do tend to benefit from stability. So, um, you know, looking at, you know, definitely looking at making offers different places and seeing if there are people willing to let things go relatively cheaply. Um, but yeah, I don't know if it's actually. [00:15:11] The only, uh, the only I can think that I picked up recently was, um, was the ledger market pass, but I've actually sold that since. Um, so that was the ledger. Um, as in the hardware wallet, they have a marketplace coming out. The, the, the ledger pass itself will give you access to some of the new drops. It wasn't particularly, um, Uh, it wasn't overly interesting to me to keep, uh, going with some other new projects, um, that, you know, it was one that I, uh, that I held for for a week or so there, um, you know, not a long term hold though. [00:15:48] I picked up I Adam pass. So I, I submitted to this. This is, um, A creator community where they're talking about collectively creating. And this is part of Adam verse.com. I'll include that in the show notes and it it's super cool. Actually, it's all about sort of a bunch of creators that have different skills, abilities from like writing animation marketing. [00:16:15] And they're all sort of like, I mean, we're collaborating on like what will be created and the ideas that, you know, uh, there will be a, a creative output. And then ideally the, any proceeds that happen would, uh, potentially get divided among it. But it's, it's, it's super interesting because it's, um, you know, trying to, you know, connect, uh, writers and creators in the same, uh, in the same game. [00:16:38] So. Um, it's not really something that's traded. There's like, there's no volume cuz they don't really allow trading to happen. So it's really just about the, the, the membership, uh, component. And it's one of the more interesting gals. I I'd say I'm a part of cool that's one that I had not heard of yet. [00:16:55] George. Oh, look at me. Look at me, Sean. Yes. There's no trading volume. So you know, you're do, you're doing it ESP. If you're a creator. Or interested in that game, like I would say that's, um, it's, it's a fun one to check out. Um, I should note that I I've noticed little nouns have come way down in price. I don't know how those will, uh, you know, how those will fare, but I do see that there are still, you'll still see some good nouns, um, get picked up on secondary for, for over 0.3, even over 0.4 at times. [00:17:27] Um, so I actually think that's a, not a bad one to, to keep an eye on, um, at least trying to maybe. Maybe snipe a, an auction. If you could see a particularly good one, there's still, uh, some PO some opportunity there to, to resell as well. Now, you know, I'm a, I'm all in on little nouns. I was able to snag a, a top 100. [00:17:46] So just to put a finer point on it, like I will constantly be looking at, uh, definitely not the floor, because if you wanna get in there and bid it's like, go for it and try to like snag one. That looks cooler. It looks interesting. Um, because there's only four out 4,600 out there and there's 1700 owners. [00:18:05] Um, and there's, you know, in terms of volume in a given day, uh, around call it 2020 items changing hands. But what you can do is actually go with, um, uh, oldest. So you do instead of price, like low to high by default, you do just like oldest and then you hit buy now. And this is kind of how I filter through. [00:18:26] And then like, I'll do a. Look and be like, oh, interesting. Is there anything that is in the top 100 for, for sale even, and, and right now there's only like three of them available there. So every now and then someone gets desperate and just posts something. Even, I'd say maybe the top 1000 might have some cache, but uh, I'll I'll say Andrews, talk me outta that. [00:18:52] Yeah. I mean it you're right though. I mean, if you're looking at the top, let's see top thousand, it looks like you're still gonna be at a minimum of. Wait, well 0.4, 2, 5, 5. I see a 0.4, five, five. Yeah. And there's number 9 56. That 0.4, 2 6, 9. Um, actually that one looks like it just sold and was re-listed um, interestingly enough, it was, uh, it was sold about 45 minutes ago for just 0.19 and then someone immediately re-listed. [00:19:23] So, you know, someone does someone's following your logic. There should be more value to you in the top thousand. You're definitely a good place holding that, that top 100 though. I, I should have some you then I hope that, uh, you know, some of our listeners did . I was, I think I did a decent job shouting that out, but I will say in everyone's defense, I was real depressed because that same day, like Ethereum had taken a 50% ax. [00:19:45] And I think in like, Like three hours or something. It was like, it was so dark when I was there being like, uh, fine, I'll do this, but that, yeah, that's, that's one to take a look at. And again, I like that because of the way that Dow is structured, right? Follow the money, the money, every 10th, one of these things is going into its own backyard and there is definitely money there. [00:20:08] And, you know, if you, if you think nouns are doing well, then little nouns are like a slice of that. So I dunno, I like it. It's on my, my list. I'll put that filter by the way in, um, in show notes. [00:20:20] I mean, the other things in my wallet is like, I bred another horse because I'm real excited about the upcoming, uh, upcoming changes Zed has, uh, going on in there. Um, like I need another, I think I just need a hundred horses. I just, I need to hit that. That milestone. Absolutely. I mean, I it's it's I've I've come rather disappointed. [00:20:37] You don't have that many yet. You gotta get to a hundred. I mean, Andrew, there's a filter. There's a constant filter to say like, do you have over under a hundred horses? And I'm like, you, like, I should . I mean, yeah, you, you should have, well over a hundred at this point. Let's uh, let's encourage George second wallet. [00:20:54] Actually, I might, I have to go check my second wallet. Oh God. I gotta go. Oh boy. [00:20:58] All right. I feel like, um, is there anything else on the, uh, the affordable shopping list right now? No, I think that's, I think that covers it, you know, making bids and, and seeing what hits, but, you know, be, be patient. You can, you can get some people, uh, maybe a little desperate to, uh, to, to get E right now. [00:21:17] Agreed. Um, so I definitely picked up the, uh, the play, the pray station, um, after our pod, uh, I picked. That one. Oh, all right. The, from Joshua Davis. Yes. The art blocks one. I like that. Yeah. I think if you're collecting art blocks, you know, there's, there's definitely a decent backstop on that. And that floor is at point 11 right now. [00:21:39] All right. Onto the theme. So we are talking basically about market cap, so NFT price.com. And, you know, they're, you know, everyone's got their, their sort of hook on it, but it is a data aggregator price, price, floor tracker, and then it just does the fun thing of saying, well, what if we multiply, um, the total amount of the value of price floor versus the collection size. [00:22:06] And that's how you end up with like a market cap of 1.4 billion for board ape, right? Or, uh, crypto punk set 1.3, uh, 1.3 billion. So it is this idea of saying. There is an inherent value and it's at the floor. If everything's sold for the floor, this is what it would be. Um, I think it's also interested. They show listed slash supply ratio and you just sort of have like a, a scarcity element there, uh, as well. [00:22:32] Um, which, which is curious, I dunno, what do you see in when you look at a, a market cap, anything of use. Um, you know, I think one, one of the good things with market cap is that it gives you a way to compare floor prices or more than just floor prices, but compare collections beyond floor prices and account for the fact that many of these projects have different numbers of pieces. [00:22:54] You know, we do see 10,000 often, but obviously we see, you know, 5,000, you see 20,000 see very different numbers. And there, you know, that's a lot more holders, a lot more people that need to hold onto those, or, you know, you continue buying. Um, and you know that we're, we get these market caps and it's, you know, I, I think one thing to keep in mind is that's a pretty. [00:23:17] And it's, it's always optimistic because it's assuming there is liquidity at that floor price. And, you know, we, I, we know that once somebody starts selling that floor price is going to move. And if there's a lot of sellers, we, we generally know which direction that's going to go and that's gonna be down. [00:23:36] Um, so I think it is, it's good to keep in mind that these. These floor cap or sorry, these, uh, um, these market caps. There's, there's not a lot of liquidity generally speaking behind these projects. Exactly. So the liquidity question is like, could all of that technically be sold. So if you were, you know, nine, 9000th person selling, like no one would be on the other side of that buying. [00:24:02] So I think it is a bit of. I don't know, mid bit of misleading data to assume that like, oh, we could immediately get all that money for our place. You need that many buyers on the other side. Uh, for, for doing that. Um, I also like to just sort of like the quick number, so example, like I know you're a rug radio holder for, for instance, um, we've talked about it, but the rug, radio Genesis NFT, you know, there, there's only 1.2%, um, sellers on that. [00:24:30] So like most of the folks are actually staking that. Right. And so you're like, oh, interesting. Um, it's kind of just like a different look at what, um, A thin floor might be, um, the floor on that by the way is like, I think it's like 0.2. It's in the background of my mind of like, eh, maybe I'll put that on my list. [00:24:47] Yeah, I, I do like looking at the number or the percent listed, I guess that's even even more indicat than, than the number of listings. Um, you know, one thing that I think we need to keep in mind is this is generally open sea. And as, as far as listings go, and, you know, as we see more and more markets or marketplaces proliferate, and, you know, we see, you know, X two Y, two, and genie and, and looks rare and. [00:25:12] I'll take little bits. We're not always getting a complete picture of how many are really for sale. When we look at these, I think it's a great metric overall. Keep in mind, some projects in particular may be more active on other marketplaces. So, you know, there's look around a bit when, when doing these, when you're doing your, uh, research, you know, I've definitely started noticing that you need to really check more marketplaces now because, uh, you know, open sea doesn't have as much of a stronghold. [00:25:41] And I think that's probably going to continue. I think, you know, some of these aggregators, these data, um, aggregators they're. Right now they're not taking listings from all of the, the various marketplaces. Um, for the most part listings are off chain. So that would be using, um, you actually need to use APIs generally speaking, to get the listings, um, from the other marketplaces. [00:26:05] So, you know, I think we'll start seeing improvements there, but, um, Definitely isn't a perfect measure. Um, I think it is, this is something that's actually included on the, uh, w gmi.io tool as well. You can see how many, um, new listings there are in a day and how many, or, you know, whether it's gone up or down. [00:26:24] I do like looking at that gives me some idea of, you know, if it's, if people are, are. You know, getting more tempted to sell because the price has gone up or, um, you know, people are actually holding because, you know, they, they wanna hold or hold it for the long term. And aren't necessarily all that concerned with a, you know, 0.1 E increase. [00:26:43] Um, it that's that I find actually more, I, I pay more attention to that than, than market kept generally speaking. Um, I don't know. How about you, George? Do you, do you look into those at. Um, yeah, I'm much more of a Hawk on, on the sort of volume. I wanna just wanna know how, how quickly or how FOMO a, I should be on my, my bids, uh, on whether a project is moving or not. [00:27:07] And frankly, I'm like, I, I'm really only looking for things that are asleep. I want, I, I want something that, uh, I I think has value and is going to, to wake up later. Um, and if it's already moving, it's a signal to me is like, I missed it. I'm like, I'm fine with that. I'm good with it. Uh, the other side of it is I'm a little, you know, not too asleep. [00:27:28] I think I was, you know, looking back, uh, a year ago, this time. Was I think more enamored with just sort of like old projects for the sake of old, like, oh my gosh. Like how old this thing is. And like it's been a year and I don't think that really has played into this market valuation at all. You know, my, my bets on like crypto bots, my bot, like my bets on chain bases simply because they were just like OG and original and, you know, have, have been in the game for a while. [00:27:55] Like it. Uh, it doesn't seem to play in. And I think there are, it's more about utility, um, ongoing interest of the project because, you know, I'm, I'm looking at something like chain faces and I'm like, there's a low number listed, but I know that's because it's just low attention completely. I almost like it has been forgotten. [00:28:13] Yeah. You know, I, I, I think that may be, you know, trying to look at the number that are listed in a day compared to the number of sales, um, would probably be a, you know, really helpful, uh, metric to have, you know, see how fast the, the inventory is turning over essentially. Um, Because I've definitely seen some and there are times where I just go list something and it's maybe the only one listed. [00:28:35] And, you know, I know that it's not exactly going to move anytime soon, despite being the only one listed, um, And that is, yeah, there's a lack of attention if people aren't seeing anything happen, um, you know, open sea has made the default, uh, for new listings to just be 30 days. So, you know, there, if you're not in there and either not changing it doing longer listings, there are definitely times where there's just no action. [00:28:59] Um, you know, and that's one where we, if you looked at how many sales per day and how many listings per day you'd have a much better, you'd have a much more accurate view of what's really happening with the collection rather than having to go look at the, the activity manual. Yeah. All right. Well, I think in a, in upcoming one, I wanna dive into some transaction actual like macro data and, and look at that. [00:29:21] Look at some of your charts, any other, any other thoughts we had on this theme? [00:29:25] No. I mean, I, you know, I think this is, it's a good one to keep in mind, especially for comparing different collections and also getting an idea, is this, you know, is this absurd? Is there, you know, is there really that much liquidity there? You know, if you see an absolutely massive number, you know, in the, uh, the market cap, I think that might be a good sign that it, uh, it's a little bubbly. [00:29:44] It might be time to, to list because certainly other people will be listing as well. Yeah, you get into this sort of like we were to tie the real world price to earnings ratio and it'd be way outta whack. You'd be like, really? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you know, it's, we're still developing some of these metrics I think. [00:30:02] And you know, I think there's even just thinking about how, how fast the, the inventory does turn over is, is important when you're, when you're thinking about getting into these collections. Yeah, no, it's it, it could be actually a, a warning signal of saying like, well, wait a minute, this is just it's. So out of whack and sometimes to see the big number can help you realize like, wait a minute, this is, you know, you're telling me this is got the valuation of like a fortune fortune 100 company. [00:30:27] And you're like, it doesn't like this, this asset simply doesn't have that. Yeah. I mean, it's, you know, it's hard to say that many of these , that aren't seeing a whole lot of, uh, revenue, um, beyond, you know, a small percentage of, of what's traded each day. Um, it's hard to imagine that that a lot of these can sustain some of these just massive market market caps. [00:30:50] I don't know, crypto Dick butts might make it. You know, I think that deserves it's it's market cap. Well, I'm give you crypto. Oh, here's here. all right, Andrew, you gotta guess as we sign off, what do you think in, in dollars the, uh, the market cap for crypto Dick butts is. Uh, let's see. I think it's well, there's about 7,000. [00:31:12] I believe there's 69 69. And it's three E or so. So we've got 21,000 E nine. So what do we have? 400 and something, 440 million or something? Well, you're off, you're off by a zero. It's like 30. Am I off by a zero? Oh, five zero. Okay. I added one. All right. Sorry. I mean, you could, if I had said doodles, you were you were, well, I mean, I knew was gonna be something absurd, but you know, I don't know the Dick, but what has been interesting and kind of expected that with a pump a while ago? [00:31:46] It has now it's, uh, man, that's that's that's the CCO one, right? CCO summer, apparently. Yeah. Oh, that's a good topic for us. What happens when you know, you get CC'd like all the moon birds people did. Um, we had that in the news article, not too long ago. That was unfortunate for them. Well, legally, man, what you own is not yours anymore. [00:32:07] Sorry. Yeah, that's an interesting one, especially because that was advertised as, uh, being part of the project that you own the IP so interesting that you never owned the IP because if you did, they wouldn't have been able to change it like that. Learn as you go. All right. Good talk. See you out there. All right, George.
The business-as-a-flow orientation embraces continuous adaptive change within the firm. Traditional slow-motion control mechanisms like strategy and planning are no longer appropriate. The new toolkit that entrepreneurs are developing includes the after action review (AAR), a learning tool rather than a misguided attempt at predictive control. Key Takeaways and Actionable Insights In a VUCA world, entrepreneurial orientation embraces change and adaptation in order to reach goals. Learning fast is critical in times of accelerated change. A business firm must change at least as fast as its market and its external environment if it is to survive and thrive — ideally faster. In earlier podcasts, we've made reference to the OODA loop as a non-linear change management framework: Observe changing data, filter those Observations through your firm's capabilities, culture, heritage, and experience to understand what the new data means to your firm specifically, re-Orient if it's indicated, make new Decisions and take new Actions, and monitor the feedback loops for updated Observations. Speed of progression through the loop is a competitive advantage — make changes faster than your competitors. One of the keys to successfully managing change is a bias for action. It's possible that in some situations some businesses may fear taking action — they lack confidence in their own hypotheses and are concerned that their action might be “wrong”. Austrian entrepreneurship takes a different perspective. Entrepreneurial orientation and intent shape decision-making by giving it a high potential focus and, thereafter, every action is framed an experiment from which to learn. Learning enables a greater capacity for reframing. Curt Carlson, in E4B podcast #175 (Mises.org/E4B_175), told us that relentless reframing is key to success in innovation. Learning through action is paramount. The tool for learning from action is the AAR – After Action Review. The After Action Review is a simple device that asks the questions: what did we intend would happen, what did actually happen, what can we learn from what happened, what will we change next time we take action. Intent — What are the intended results and metrics?It's important to continually review the shared understanding of intent among those participating in any action or project or initiative. Shared intent is the mechanism that supplies direction and thrust so that everyone is moving in the same direction. It's sometimes called commander's intent (in the military) or leader's intent (in Agile team science). It's key that every team member subscribes to and can articulate the intent.Performance — What happened? Is there a performance gap compared to intent?“What happened” can be a challenging question because observation is often subjective, and individuals in different vantage point and with different perspectives can provide different reports or estimations of what happened. Cultural factors become important – front line actors and individuals located lower in a hierarchy must be able to speak freely about what they observed without fear of contradiction or condemnation by superior. A performance gap must be viewed as a learning opportunity that is good for the entire team and the firm as a whole.Learning — What was the cause or source of any performance gap?In a high-speed learning culture, teams are eager to identify causes or issues that give rise to performance gaps. In complexity thinking, it is not always possible to identify linear cause-and-effect linkages, but it's generally possible to identify areas for improvement as a result of experiencing a setback. It may simply be necessary to run more experiments until a better performance can be attained. It may be possible to identify obstacles that can be removed. It may be possible to identify risks that can be mitigated. In any of these cases, learning via experience (i.e., after action) advances knowledge and augments adaptiveness.One possible learning is that the intended result is not, in fact, within the capacity of the firm, leading to either a decision to augment capacity or a decision to redirect existing resources into other lines.Next Time — What should we change?Learning leads to new hypotheses which can be implemented through new action. The After Action Review identifies what changes in behavior are appropriate to try in a future action. There's the opportunity to eliminate waste, or abandon no-longer promising trials, or experiment with improved ideas. In a learning culture, there is eagerness to return to action armed with new knowledge and to explore new potential. AAR's can span all time periods: before action, during action, after action. When should a firm conduct AARs? All the time. In fact, there's a role for before action reviews, during action reviews and after action reviews. All have the same structure. What is / was / is going to be our intent?What challenges will we expect to face / are we facing / did we face?What have we learned in the past / what are we learning right now / what caused the latest gap?What will make us successful this time / what adjustments should we make right now / what will we change next time? A learning culture and orientation are critical to the successful application of AAR's. Learning via AARs is not mechanical, it's cultural. The culture of the firm must be that there's no development, no progress, no improvement without learning. Mark McGrath links the learning culture to the growth mindset. The relevant assessment is not one of strengths versus weaknesses but the mindset of the firm compared to that of its competitors. Seeking growth is a mindset, and so is learning. It's a humble mindset in which we recognize our bounded understanding and seek eagerly to augment it with new knowledge. There are simple shared rules for individual AARs and for the learning culture: shared goals and mental models, open to every level of the organization, psychological safety, transparency, shared findings, preparation for next time. Within these rules, every firm can build a capacity for learning that becomes a capacity for growth.

It's key that every team member subscribes to and can articulate the intent.Performance — What happened? Is there a performance gap compared to intent?“What happened” can be a challenging question because observation is often subjective, and individuals in different vantage point and with different perspectives can provide different reports or estimations of what happened. Cultural factors become important – front line actors and individuals located lower in a hierarchy must be able to speak freely about what they observed without fear of contradiction or condemnation by superior. A performance gap must be viewed as a learning opportunity that is good for the entire team and the firm as a whole.Learning — What was the cause or source of any performance gap?In a high-speed learning culture, teams are eager to identify causes or issues that give rise to performance gaps. In complexity thinking, it is not always possible to identify linear cause-and-effect linkages, but it's generally possible to identify areas for improvement as a result of experiencing a setback. It may simply be necessary to run more experiments until a better performance can be attained. It may be possible to identify obstacles that can be removed. It may be possible to identify risks that can be mitigated. In any of these cases, learning via experience (i.e., after action) advances knowledge and augments adaptiveness.One possible learning is that the intended result is not, in fact, within the capacity of the firm, leading to either a decision to augment capacity or a decision to redirect existing resources into other lines.Next Time — What should we change?Learning leads to new hypotheses which can be implemented through new action. The After Action Review identifies what changes in behavior are appropriate to try in a future action. There's the opportunity to eliminate waste, or abandon no-longer promising trials, or experiment with improved ideas. In a learning culture, there is eagerness to return to action armed with new knowledge and to explore new potential. AAR's can span all time periods: before action, during action, after action. When should a firm conduct AARs? All the time. In fact, there's a role for before action reviews, during action reviews and after action reviews. All have the same structure. What is / was / is going to be our intent?What challenges will we expect to face / are we facing / did we face?What have we learned in the past / what are we learning right now / what caused the latest gap?What will make us successful this time / what adjustments should we make right now / what will we change next time? A learning culture and orientation are critical to the successful application of AAR's. Learning via AARs is not mechanical, it's cultural. The culture of the firm must be that there's no development, no progress, no improvement without learning. Mark McGrath links the learning culture to the growth mindset. The relevant assessment is not one of strengths versus weaknesses but the mindset of the firm compared to that of its competitors. Seeking growth is a mindset, and so is learning. It's a humble mindset in which we recognize our bounded understanding and seek eagerly to augment it with new knowledge. There are simple shared rules for individual AARs and for the learning culture: shared goals and mental models, open to every level of the organization, psychological safety, transparency, shared findings, preparation for next time. Within these rules, every firm can build a capacity for learning that becomes a capacity for growth.

Series 2: The how to getting employee experience right.Will Shorter joins me to share his story about his experience of working in a damaging culture. We unpick what was wrong and the impact it had, ultimately driving him to leave the company. That was clearly their loss and a gain for both Will personally and his current employer, EKF Diagnostics.According the the Culture Economy Report 2021, toxic workplace culture is costing the UK economy £20.2 billion per year, and is causing almost a third of employees to quit their role. That is staggering when work culture has supposedly been pushed up the agenda and become a priority for what we must get right, over recent years.We explore a number of issues for work culture that companies should be aware of:The need for friendly challenge - positive conflict to innovate, share knowledge and improve outcomesThe need for recognition about what employees invest in their work, and their achievementsThe role of After Action Reviews (AARs)Growth and development; a narrow-minded approach to priorities Working from strengths and using DISC profiling to increase awareness of ourselves and othersMicro-management and the need to develop manager skills and mentoring roles"68% of people who have worked for a micro-manager experienced a decrease in their morale, and 55% claimed it hurt their productivity. Around 36% of employees change job as a result of micro-management."The need for feedback to raise self-awareness as a manager or leaderA conscious approach to embracing and leading change"86% of employees admit that the purpose and thrill disappear after their ideas got shot down because 'that's not how we do things'". The impact of not getting the work culture right; and the need to listen to our gut instinctThe ability to create a culture for positive employee experience when remote working The need to disrupt the status quo and change things that aren't workingThe need for employers to engage with mental health by providing their employees with the tools to help themselvesMore about WillGlobal Product Manager of Diabetes Care at EKF Diagnostics, Will Shorter has been involved in product management for over 13 years.Links to contact Will:LinkedIn: William ShorterEmail: williamshorter@ekfdiagnostics.comWebsite: www.ekfdiagnostics.comFurther Support:For support to conduct AARs, lead change, develop your work culture and strengthen the competence and confidence of managers, get in touch.

Het werd tijd om de daad bij het woord te voegen. Zes dagen op pad met haast meer tassen dan fiets reden wij het onbekende tegemoet. Op zoek naar mooie bospaden, koolzaadvelden, jachthutten, de wind in de rug, glooiende landschappen, pasta, speciaalbier, rode bounty's, schnitzels, ingemaakte eieren met tabasco genaamd solleg, snurkloze nachte, plaatsen die de tour de france aandoen, het Himmelland en het fijnste gravel van Noord-Europa.

From the front-line battlefields in the US Army to Chief of HR Operations with the White House Communications Agency and Presidential Communications Officer for both Presidents Bush and Obama, Robert “Bo” Brabo has had a ton of experience leading in zero-defect environments - where there is absolutely NO room for error. On this episode of The Workplace Communication Podcast, Bo shares his insights about the importance of after-action reviews in business and how to do them in a way that works. Leadership tips you won't want to miss:
Planning can take many forms- week-long slogs through every conceivable detail to five minute decisions made by commanders. MCTOG has refined a model for how a battalion staff can run through a modified MCPP rapidly, giving them the agility to respond to changing circumstances or new directives from higher. AARs of free play exercises commonly reference the speed with which units can process new information and turn it into something operational. Only by doing so faster than the enemy can you gain an advantage. The Rapid Planning Model can help you do just that.
In this episode Gate 15 shares a webinar led by Casey Ateah, Gate 15's Director of Preparedness, Andy Jabbour, Gate 15 Managing Director and including David Pounder, Gate 15 Director of Threat and Risk Analysis. In this webinar, the Gate 15 team discusses why often, many organizations don't do a great job of completing a deliberate after-action review process or developing effective after-action reports (AARs) after incidents, from small-scale events to significant threats, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic. The webinar covers topics such as how to get started on an AAR process by identifying the needed resources and getting those resources to conduct the necessary analysis in order to draft an After-Action Report and Improvement Plan. Andy also shares some thoughts on the importance of preparedness and imagination when working towards personal, organizational and national resilience.
