Conceptual papers that offer new theories are hard to write and even harder to publish. You do not have empirical data to back up your arguments, which makes the papers easy to reject in the review cycle. We are also typically not well trained in theorizing, and there isn't even a clear process to theorizing we could learn or follow. Does that mean that we shouldn't even try to write theory papers? We ponder these questions, figure out what is so hard in writing conceptual papers – and share a few tricks that might help if you still wanted to write such a paper.  References Berente, N., Gu, B., Recker, J., & Santhanam, R.

Species distributions are an essential feature for a successful species conservation management. Data of presence/absence are quite simple to obtain and they are easily part of most inventory schemes, such as Bird Atlases and survey plots. After +100 years of bird banding, the current flurry of geotagging should improve knowledge on distributions. It should specifically be an easy feature for large species. The Great Grey Owl (Great Gray Owl in North America, Strix nebulosa) is one of those species; it is c. 65cm tall and has a wingspan of 1,2m, occurring in the Old World and the New World from temperate to arctic regions. However, the actual distribution is poorly known and described, even major authorities differ, as discussed here. Rather than an icon of the wild, this species seems to be more of a road- and urban species, as shown with machine learning predictions when modeling best-available data in Alaska (Andrews 2019). Using Great Grey Owls, the presented problems centered around expert-drawn distribution maps are commonly found elsewhere too, while ML and Open Access dat provide progress and new insights crucially needed.

The paper's abstract reads: The failure of 27 wildland firefighters to follow orders to drop their heavy tools so they could move faster and outrun an exploding fire led to their death within sight of safe areas. Possible explanations for this puzzling behavior are developed using guidelines proposed by James D. Thompson, the first editor of the Administrative Science Quarterly. These explanations are then used to show that scholars of organizations are in analogous threatened positions, and they too seem to be keeping their heavy tools and falling behind. ASQ's 40th anniversary provides a pretext to reexamine this potentially dysfunctional tendency and to modify it by reaffirming an updated version of Thompson's original guidelines. The Mann Gulch fire was a wildfire in Montana where 15 smokejumpers approached the fire to begin fighting it, and unexpected high winds caused the fire to suddenly expand. This "blow-up" of the fire covered 3,000 acres (1,200 ha) in ten minutes, claiming the lives of 13 firefighters, including 12 of the smokejumpers. Only three of the smokejumpers survived. The South Canyon Fire was a 1994 wildfire that took the lives of 14 wildland firefighters on Storm King Mountain, near Glenwood Springs, Colorado, on July 6, 1994. It is often also referred to as the "Storm King" fire. Discussion Points:Some details of the Mann Gulch fire deaths due to refusal to drop their tools Weich lays out ten reasons why these firefighters may have refused to drop their tools:Couldn't hear the orderLack of explanation for order - unusual, counterintuitiveYou don't trust the leaderControl- if you lose your tools, lose capability, not a firefighterSkill at dropping tools - ie survivor who leaned a shovel against a tree instead of droppingSkill with replacement activity - it's an unfamiliar situationFailure - to drop your tools, as a firefighter,  is to failSocial dynamics - why would I do it if others are notConsequences - if people believe it won't make a difference, they won't drop.These men should have been shown the difference it would makeIdentity- being a firefighter, without tools they are throwing away their identity.  This was also shortly after WWII, where you are a coward if you throw away your weapons, and would be alienated from your groupThomson had four principles necessary for research in his publication: Administrative science should focus on relationships - you can't understand without structures and people and variables. Abstract concepts - not on single concrete ideas, but theories that apply to the fieldDevelopment of operational definitions that bridge concepts and raw experience - not vague fluffy things with confirmation bias - sadly, we still don't have all the definitions todayValue of the problem - what do they mean? What is the service researchers are trying to provide? How Weick applies these principles to the ten reasons, then looks at what it means for researchersWeick's list of ten- they are multiple, interdependent reasons – they can all be true at the same timeThompsons list of four, relating them to Weick's ten, in today's organizationsWhat are the heavy tools that we should get rid of? Weick links heaviest tools with identityDrew's thought - getting rid of risk assessments would let us move faster, but people won't drop them, relating to the ten reasons aboveTakeaways: 1) Emotional vs. cognitive  (did I hear that, do I know what to do) emotional (trust, failure, etc.) in individuals and teams2) Understanding group dynamics/first person/others to follow - the pilot diversion story, Piper Alpha oil rig jumpers, first firefighter who drops tools. Next week is episode 100 - we've got a plan! Quotes:“Our attachment to our tools is not a simple, rational thing.” - Drew“It's really hard to recognize that you're well past that point where success is not an option at all.” - Drew“These firefighters were several years since they'd been in a really raging, high-risk fire situation…” - David“I encourage anyone to read Weick's papers, they're always well-written.” - David“Well, I think according to Weick, the moment you begin to think that dropping your tools is impossible and unthinkable, that might be the moment you actually have to start wondering why you're not dropping your tools.” - Drew“The heavier the tool is, the harder it is to drop.” - Drew Resources:Karl Weick - Drop Your Tools PaperThe Safety of Work PodcastThe Safety of Work on LinkedInFeedback@safetyofwork

Bell Bank executive Tony Weick has spent a quarter of a century in the mortgage business and he doesn't plan to leave anytime soon. A graduate of Concordia College in Moorhead, Minnesota, Weick joined Bell in 2004. In 2013, after a stint as underwriting manager, he was named executive leader of Bell Bank Mortgage. Weick has twice been named to the “Minnesota 500” list of the state's top business leaders, according to his company bio. In his current role, Weick is responsible for overall residential mortgage functions at Bell, which has about $10 billion in assets and main offices in Fargo, Minneapolis and Phoenix. The mortgage division, he notes, is spread “across a larger swath of the country,” including the central U.S. and into the southeast. Given his years of experience, Weick is a go-to source of information about industry trends. In the following interview with Finance & Commerce reporter Brian Johnson, he talks about what 2022 might have in store for interest rates, housing inventory, new home construction and more.

Tonight the guys discuss the Olympics, Ray's strange case of gout, and the Weick's team's visit to the Iowa Motor Speedway.

Relax, these are just concepts each created by an academic who down played, or ignored and did not even reference, the other two concepts in the competitive world of academia. Weick makes it clear that you just have to relax and make sense of the perspectives of these different experts and authorities

We spend the hour with Bob Weick, who has spent much of the first two decades of the 21st century bringing a play written by Howard Zinn to audiences across the US.

Health First Approach to RecoverySummary: Sonja Wieck (w-ick) underwent a life transformation taking her from an average stay-at-home mom to a World-Class Ironman triathlete. She is a 6x Kona Ironman World Championship Qualifier, came in 2nd place at Kona Ironman World Female 35-39 age group (2015), was named the Ironman All World Female 35-39 Champion (2013), Tokyo's Joe's Athlete of the Month (2014). She can be seen leading her group of 3 men on Team Iron Cowboy on Mark Burnett's new competition show “https://ecochallenge.com/ (World's Toughest Race Eco-Challenge Fiji)” hosted by Bear Grylls premiered on Amazon Prime on August 14, 2020. (If you haven't watched this yet. You need to) She now has a podcast of her own sharing the untold stories of the athletes that participated in that event. (https://gosonja.com/podcast (Tales of Toughness)) And if that's not all she's also an Ultramarathoner, she's ran the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim in 12 hours, was named the Moab 100 mile Female Champion and 2nd overall (2010) and believe me there are more achievements but I don't want to keep you waiting for our conversation any longer! We chat about how she has grown up fearless, her health first approach to recovery, her favorite tools for recovery and much much more.

Sonja Weick: [00:02:32] Hey, Jase, I'm so, so stoke that you asked me to. Come on. I'm excited to be here. I'm honored and thankful. So thanks for having me. Jase Kraft: [00:02:39] Awesome wow that. That's quite the range of emotions. So I'm excited. I'm excited to talk to somebody that I watch for ten episodes on a season. That and honestly, I had to borrow somebody else's Amazon Prime because I don't have it. But I was like, I need to see this show. So but I wanted to start off this conversation kind of taking you back to pre athletics for you in your in your podcast that you have tales of toughness. You talk about that you got into running because you were afraid of balls and just kind of love the freedom that I got to you. But what made you, like, go out on that first run? I mean, that's not something that. Sonja Weick: [00:03:29] Oh, my gosh. Jase Kraft: [00:03:30] I'm going to go run. Sonja Weick: [00:03:32] I know it's. Gosh, yes. You know, I think since I've been little, what's always got me, what's always been in my blood and in my DNA is adventure. I remember even being like a little kid and we had property and I was always adventuring around the property and climbing all the trees and I had a dog in tow. And so there was this sense of exploration that's always been deep inside of my little heart. And I remember. In middle schools trying to run the mile and seeing that I was the fastest girl in the school and kind of getting a little bit of like a school attitude about it, and then I remember one day thinking, you know what, I'm gonna I think runners train like they go and they run. And I took off from my house and I ran and I ran and I ran. And I think later I went and had my mom drive it and I had run six miles all around the neighborhood. But all I remember was I was really tired. That was exhausting. But I got so far from home because you get like three miles from home when you're in middle school and you think you're on another planet. And that sense of having, like, my own two little feet get me that...

Zukunftsfähige Organisationen haben häufig eine hohe Kompetenz, sich nach Störungen schnell wieder zu erholen und ihre Handlungsfähigkeit wieder herzustellen. Dies ist ein erster Indikator für organisationale Resilienz. Was sich noch dahinter verbirgt – dazu mehr im Gespräch mit Dr. Annette Gebauer. Dr. Annette Gebauer ist systemische Organisationsberaterin und Inhaberin der Beratung Interventions for Corporate Learning (ICL) mit Sitz in Berlin. Ihre Arbeit fußt auf dem von Karl E. Weick und Kathleen Sutcliffe begründeten Management-Ansatz des High Reliability Organizing (HRO), den sie für die praktische Umsetzung in Management und Beratung konkretisiert hat. Gebauer unterstützt zahlreiche internationale Unternehmen in Veränderungsprozessen zur nachhaltigen Kulturentwicklung sowie zur Steigerung der organisationalen Lern- und Leistungsfähigkeit.

S., Foulger, S. H., McMahon, L. L., Weick, J. P., Dobrunz, L. E. Abstract: Optogenetics is a widely used tool for studying neural circuits. However, non-invasive methods for light delivery in the brain are needed to avoid physical damage typically caused by intracranial insertion of light guides. An innovative strategy could employ X-ray activation of radioluminescent particles (RLPs) to emit localized light. We previously reported that RLPs composed of cerium doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO:Ce), an inorganic scintillator that emits blue light, are biocompatible with neuronal function and synaptic transmission. However, little is known about the consequences of acute X-ray exposure on synaptic function and long-term plasticity. Furthermore, modulation of neuronal or synaptic function by X-ray induced radioluminescence from RLPs has not yet been demonstrated. Here we show that 30 minutes of X-ray exposure at a rate of 0.042 Gy/second caused no change in the strength of basal glutamatergic transmission during extracellular dendritic field recordings in mouse hippocampal slices. Additionally, long-term potentiation (LTP), a robust measure of synaptic integrity, was able to be induced after X-ray exposure and expressed at a magnitude not different from control conditions (absence of X-rays). This is important as synaptic plasticity is critical to learning and memory. Next, we used molecular and electrophysiological approaches to determine if X-ray dependent radioluminescence emitted from RLPs can activate light sensitive proteins. We found that X-ray stimulation of RLPs elevated cAMP levels in HEK293T cells expressing OptoXR, a chimeric opsin receptor that combines the extracellular light-sensitive domain of channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) with an intracellular second messenger signaling cascade. This demonstrates that X-ray radioluminescence from LSO:Ce particles can activate OptoXR. Next, we tested whether X-ray activation of the RLPs can enhance synaptic activity in whole-cell recordings from hippocampal neurons expressing ChR2, both in cell culture and acute hippocampal slices. Importantly, X-ray radioluminescence caused an increase in the frequency of spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic currents (sEPSCs) in both systems, indicating activation of ChR2 and excitation of neurons. Together, our results show that X-ray activation of LSO:Ce particles can heighten cellular and synaptic function. The combination of LSO:Ce inorganic scintillators and X-rays is therefore a viable method for optogenetics as an alternative to more invasive light delivery methods.

In this episode, I'm going to review an excellent book by Karl E. Weick and Kathleen M. Sutcliffe, called Managing the Unexpected, Assuring High Performance in an Age of Complexity.  This 2001 book is about the time of the tech recession. It was a time of disruption, which makes this book extremely relevant today. The big concept the authors have discussed in the book is around Highly Reliable Organizations or HROs.  Let’s explore some of the ideas and think about how you can lead your organization during these uncertain times and create your future. We'll dive deeper into these concepts: Why the book remains relevant today Key ideas around Highly Reliable Organizations (HROs): Preoccupation with failure Reluctance to simplify interpretations Sensitivity to operations Commitment to resilience Deference to expertise Thoughts for You as a Leader: The key role of the leader is to propose: What is the set of questions we need to answer? Resilience - What’s your backup plan or countermeasure? Processes - Recognize the limitations and the pattern of exceptions.

In part 2, we explore an article from Edward Powley on activating organizational resilience — “Reclaiming resilience and safety: Resilience activation in the critical period of crisis,” published in Human Relations in 2009. The article describes three different social mechanisms that are put into action according to Powley — liminal suspension, compassionate witnessing, and relational redundancy. Respectively, these mechanisms cause the organization to temporarily restructure itself to respond to the crisis, leverage interpersonal relationships within the organization more intensely, and leverage social connections across boundaries to reach out and help others outside the organization.

Crises and disasters are regular occurrences in organizational life, putting leaders into the spotlight and organizations under tremendous pressure to respond appropriately - whether it is to preserve life or salvage reputations. With the COVID-19 pandemic ongoing, we wanted to discuss some classic texts on organizational crises and their management. In this episode, we include Karl Weick's famous paper on the Tenerife Air Disaster when two Boeing 747s collided and an article from Edward Powley on activating organizational resilience in crisis.

Et atomkraftværk der nedsmelter og en leder der ikke handler. En innovationsafdeling hvor en leder drømmer om handlings-aggressivitet. Og om vovemod. For hvordan skal vi ellers lave innovation til en fremtid, vi ikke kender – hvis ingen tør handle sig til ny viden? Dét er et af de centrale dilemmaer i denne måneds podcast. Kasper Munk, enhedschef i Region Hovedstaden, og lektor i strategi og ledelse Sverri Hammer, diskuterer dilemmaet med udgangspunkt i Karl Weicks teori om organisering og meningsskabelse. Sammen undersøger de, hvorfor forankring er mere interessant end forandring. Og hvad hverdagsledelse egentlig vil sige.

Marie Weick, IBM Blockchain General Manager, mentions that the best use cases for enterprise blockchain focus on data sharing, noting that data being immutable across a blockchain network makes this is a great solution for provienance tracking, handling documents across different entities and for eliminating third party intermediaries that are inefficient. She explains specific use cases, such as the IBM Food Trust network and Verified.Me. Marie also touches on the future of enterprise blockchain and what trends to expect next.

Recently I received the following email from RPOA member and podcast listener Maureen Weick: I have 1.5 acres of vacant land in northern Allegan County. I have been trying to decide what to do with it and would love to hear some opinions. These are my questions/thoughts - 1) Do I just sell outright as vacant land? ---Not a fan of this one - I will have capital gains to pay, unless I can manage the sale under a 1031 Exchange 2) Should I put a used double wide trailer there (this is rural lot) and rent it out? If I did that, should I put on a slab or a full basement? 3) Should I build a small home there and rent it out? Again, basement or slab? I hear it is quite expensive to build right now --but will that ever get any better.....? If this was your property what would you do? In order to answer these questions I asked Justin Workman to sit down with us and go over Maureen's options.  What followed was a lively discussion about 1031 Exchanges, building spec homes, buying mobile homes, and other possible options that will be of interest to any real estate investor. Enjoy the show.  If you have a question you'd like us to consider for the podcast, please send me an email:  brian@higinvestor.com

Conclusion of our conversation with Dr Thomas Roulet about Karl Weick's Journal of Management Studies Classic article - Enacted Sensemaking in Crisis Situations. A really fun and interesting episode where we touch upon a number of key concepts in management and organization studies!

Karl Weick's enacted sensemaking is a key concept in management theory, as well as a fundamental idea behind high reliability organizing. Join us as we welcome Dr Thomas Roulet of King's College London to discuss our fourth Journal of Management Studies classic paper - Enacted Sensemaking in Crisis Situations (1988)!

A Contrarian's Perspective of the Unconventional, Exceptional Rescue of 500,000 People. The following excerpt is from an article that will be published in School Business Affairs, February, 2017. ANYTHING YOU WANT, BUT NOT EVERYTHING YOU WANT: I worked with a school business manager who regularly reminded administrators and school board members that he could do anything that they wanted and not everything that they wanted. His moniker was especially relevant amongst the cyclonic opinions that school safety must center expensive fortifications. Regrettably, public perception about the issue is strongly influenced by field experts making recommendations often extremely disconnected from what has been revealed by empirical studies of the topic. Hysteria following the Sandy Hook massacre led to 450 school safety state-level legislative bills. Some bills called for the elimination of windows in schools or arming staff even though such measures were not validated by research findings. In fact, a large-scale study correlated the positive impact of natural sunlight in schools to students' academic achievement. SCHOOL SAFETY IS HEURISTICS. School safety is about the process of identifying and maintaining heuristics. It's knowing your options and keeping as many options on the table as possible. In most high-stakes safety situations, responders will be on scene within minutes and the incident command system will default to law enforcement. REFERENCES: Rosenstein, E. (2011).

This is a summary of Episode 20, where we held two discussions broadly grouped under the umbrella title of High Reliability in practice. Broadly focused on the 1993 classic research by Karl Weick and Karlene Roberts which asked how do complex, high risk organizations manage to work safely and reliably, our discussion in Episode 20 featured an appearance by a very special guest! Basically, Weick and Roberts went aboard a US Navy Nimitz class aircraft carrier to collect data and observe how the flight deck crew launches and recovers aircraft. When they came aboard the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier, guess who was there to welcome them? Commanding officer Rear Admiral Tom Mercer! Thanks to Ralph we managed to get in touch with Tom and he joined us for part one of the discussion, so definitely listen to that if you haven’t yet.

In Part 2 we delve deeper into the article itself (Weick and Roberts, 1993) in order to understand how a high reliability way of organizing can be implemented, what are the steps, and how rigid the rules and procedures have to be. Join us for a detailed and rich in examples discussion of these very key, yet academically under-explored aspects of organization studies.

Based around a classic work by Weick and Roberts (1993) on Collective mind in organizations - where the authors observed and analyzed the way people on the deck of an aircraft carrier function in a collective manner - this episode brings you a discussion of how concepts of High Reliability (see also Episode 11) flesh out in real life! Joining us for this episode is a very special guest - Commanding Officer of the aircraft carrier on which Weick and Roberts performed their study, Read Admiral (retired) Tom Mercer! Tom is an extraordinary individual and a highly experienced leader, bearing responsibility for a multidisciplinary organization of 6000 people working everything from munitions and aircraft to baking bread and producing television. This is a must listen for a grounded, empirically saturated representation of the theoretical concepts of High Reliability Organization, and general management as such, that we cover on this podcast!

This is the second episode of the three part series on HRO’s with Dr. Daved van Stralen. Quite a few topics are covered in this edition including; how HRO’s value experience within all levels of the organization, templating success by instituting reliability & resilience prior to the crisis, an overview of the five principles of HRO’s, and ways of shifting the culture of your organization. Below we posted a few pdf’s that give various examples and perspectives of HRO’s. The first pdf “Managing the Unexpected”, is by Weick and Sutcliffe (mentioned in episode one), which goes into some great AAR’s of a few past events, illustrating a how HRO’s view near misses and high impact events

This is a short podcast episode where I deliver some education or at least opinion and perspective on leadership, operations and safety performance based on things I have seen or experienced or perhaps read or learned through dialogue with colleagues. In this episode I want to talk about the subject of operational workarounds or where operational teams will modify procedures to meet the goals of the organization, This can be a touchy subject because in a perfect world we want 100% compliance, but is that always possible and is it possible that workers are placed in a position where they cannot fully comply with all the workplace rules or informal demands? As an example, what if management says you have to meet the shortened production deadline no matter what, but at the same time complying with all the rules or formal procedures may result in delays and missing the deadline? Also, is it possible that employees are not equipped with the resources they need to get the job done safely and comply with rules and procedures? As an example, I was on a job site during a consulting engagement and I noticed a modified tool, which apparently the workers modified because the tool didn’t meet their needs. This isn’t surprising. Additionally, I recently read an aircraft accident report where the pilot placed a NVG case in front of the yoke to relieve control pressure off the yoke during the loading of bulky cargo. Maybe he was trying to make the procedure more effective, efficient and safer, but in the process forgot to remove the case. Then after takeoff the case blocked the control movement and the aircraft ultimately crashed. I believe these types of workarounds happen a lot and in the mind of the operator they are necessary. Is it right to simply run around and chastise employees for implementing workarounds or what Weick refers to as “bricolage” or the artful use of what’s at hand? Of course, some workarounds simply should not be permitted. We can’t have employees removing machine guards to get the job done faster. But isn’t that where strong leadership comes in? Shouldn’t leaders get out into the field and on the production floor to try to understand the challenges employees face when getting the job done? This doesn’t mean workarounds are simply ignored, because as the saying goes, “what we permit, we promote,” and ignoring workarounds because they are successful is like giving tacit approval. What if leaders engaged the workforce in a dialogue to find out what they needed to improve the system and what if these potential improvements were vetted to verify they were safe and didn’t violate regulatory compliance? Would it be possible to create a middle ground between compliance and workarounds so that a formalized process could be developed to improve production and safety performance? Some people might call this process Management of Change or MOC, but I don’t think the MOC process is used enough to identify gaps between work as imagined vs. work as done. What do you think? What is the role of the leader in balancing procedure compliance and rule compliance and identifying the challenges workers face in the field in getting the job done? What can leaders do to improve the process and help minimize cross-purpose goals and misalignment in the organization?

Caitie and Max go on a time-hopping adventure back to a 1980 boardroom and ahead to a birthday party in 2053. Along the way, they ask all of the important questions—except, perhaps, “Why don’t they time travel to more interesting times and places?” How do you imagine your future? Is it worth thinking more than a few moves ahead? Is it even possible? Inspired by the work of organizational theorist Karl E. Weick, Caitie posits that the best way to think about the future may be, ironically, retrospectively. The Priority team also make their usual quota of mistakes—at one point, Max thinks it’s February—but they’ll fix it in post-production. Or just travel back in time and prevent the errors before they occurred.
