Is the title a constraint in itself?

Another comment I’ve been given is: “The unconscious mind will encode and deliver on words in a way our conscious mind is not always aware of” and of course that’s true. Everything about communicating this role must create some sub-concious boundaries and barriers I guess.

That’s why I think the key thing is the person and their approach and not the role and it’s description. Time will tell.

Is this thinking “beyond the norm”?

I had a discussion on line with a few people about this project, one comment was that “To think beyond the norm in business and have the courage to push the boundaries has to be one of the Capabilites.”

I tend to think that the thoughts are innovative but that innovation is a norm in business so I’m not sure that I’m going beyond the norm.

Courage to push the boundaries is a key capability though. No doubt of that.

Why am I doing this?

That question arose today when I was talking to someone about the role. It’s a choice, it may not prove to be the right one, but in part this discussion, this experiment, will provide some information to enable others to determine whether the strategy was correctly or incorrectly formed. Of course, they will do so, with the benefit of twenty twenty hindsight after the event, but that’s OK too.
