Drawing a comparison between SpatzAI and the Wright Flyer in terms of the innovation process can provide an interesting perspective on how both groundbreaking ideas were developed. Let's explore this comparison:
Speaking Up vs Talking Down
Human expression is a fundamental aspect of our existence. Speaking up, at its core, represents an intrinsic part of our nature, a vehicle through which we engage with the world.
Are You Accountable For your behavior?
Not everyone in teams and organizations know how to be accountable for their behavior.Here are 3 levels of behavior accountability that we use at SpatzAI HQ1. Acknowledge:Only some people can say sorry for their mistake."My mistake, I didn't understand." 2. Simple Apology:Only a rare few can apologize for their misbehavior when they make a mistake."I...

What Three Words?
Imagine we were in a team and all of us agreed that we could use one of three words (in phases) to pause the conversation and protect ourselves in the event that we felt uncomfortable, offended, or threatened when we had differences of opinion. The three words were three levels or phases of objecting and... Continue Reading →
Why SpatzAI Will Change the Conflict Resolution Landscape in Organizations
Conflict resolution has hardly changed in 100 years. Below is a sample form that major organizations like BHP are using for their employees to report problematic behavior. There does not appear to be any forms for addressing minor problematic behavior, however.Our Mission: Is to become the global default platform for resolving minor problematic behavior in...

The Subtle Art of Browbeating & Naysaying

It is not unlawful and will never be to subtly browbeat or naysay. I think this misbehavior will only grow as overt bullying is made illegal.Everyone knows that explicit bullying is wrong...

Real-time Protection from Groupthink
Getting people to speak up is NOT the problem; we have been doing it since birth. In my view, providing PROTECTION from groupthink is the problem. Properly solved and we can all speak up safely.
Workplace Protection for Speaking Up
Lately, this idea encouraging workplace team members to speak up and call out mistakes, misbehavior, and misleading leadership has been getting a lot of airwaves. Still, no one seems to be discussing how we can supply sufficient protection during the process.A key to my understanding of this issue is from the quote: “Psychological safety is...

Blind Misleading the Blind
It's time to get serious about this. I believe it's time we start talking about basic protections that allow workplace team members to speak up rather than listening to the ubiquitous cliches and platitudes that psychologists use to describe the need for psychological safety.
Psychological Uncertainty
The latest buzzphrase is psychological safety. It is aspirational, and as yet, no one knows how to achieve this social construct, but it seems most psychologists are discussing what it will look like and how it might be achieved. I doubt we will. It's a bit like we're drowning while they are describing the water. ... Continue Reading →
