Our written history began around 10,000BC with the Agricultural Revolution. After this, came the Industrial Revolution and we are now in the Digital Revolution or Information Age. My prediction is that the next revolution that builds upon the Information Age will be the Agree-cultural Revolution. What is the Agree-cultural Revolution? I believe it is where...

Gossip Quotient
It is great how babies and toddlers all seem to object rather than complain. (ie complain in real time to the person responsible for their care rather than gossip later behind their backs). Imagine if they could learn to say to OBJECT123 to let us know instead of crying or screaming? I think it is... Continue Reading →
Psychological Safety Singular Framework
It seems to me there are two approaches to creating a Psychological Safety Framework: Describe all the behaviors that team members should and shouldn’t do and what the team leaders should and shouldn’t do to enable these identified behaviors. Or Propose a singular framework for objecting to misbehavior that team members and team leaders could... Continue Reading →
THE PRECAUTION!
The word "precaution" suggests that it's what comes before we need to caution or to even prevent cautioning. In fact, to me precaution does not seem to make sense until we make the statement "to take the precaution". Our lives are full of these precautions, so many in fact that I believe we have not...

Relationship Caution Protocols One of the most financially successful sports globally, without argument, is soccer with the top three teams in the world being valued at more than $12 billion. The game is controlled by standard rules and a referee using a whistle along with yellow and red card caution protocols. When an infringement occurs... Continue Reading →
The Object Response Workshop
My aspirational thinking.....Imagine if the NRL and AFL employed me to go around to everyone of their teams to give them an Object Response workshop? (Caution: the Object Response is yet to be tested) Where I simply tell the team members how to deal with domestic disputes by1. Getting agreements with our partners, first and... Continue Reading →
The Third Phase of Objection
What causes conflict? I believe what happens is that most people allow the first, second and even the third offense to take place and only then react or object but by then the reaction can and usually is so disproportionate to the offence. We have all been there and suffered this type of wrath, for... Continue Reading →
Three Phases of Objecting
Few people if any really know the difference between objecting and disagreeing, until it is explained to them and then it makes perfect sense. Please tell me if I was wrong and leave a comment below if you knew. Even in wikidiff it doesn’t clearly explain it. The difference is, I think, that we object... Continue Reading →
