Framing and Reframing • Frames are sets of assumptions and mental models that act as a window on the world. • Frames are both conscious/explicit and unconscious/implicit. • Frames determine what we see and how we interpret what we see. • We need skills in engaging multiple models and learning how to reframe situation.

  16. Lighting makes you see whatever it wants you to see . It can hide stuff that exist.

  17. Traps of Frames: Psychic Prisons • Taken-for-granted frames render us blind to new types of data. • We tend to seek out data that is consistent with our frames. • When we believe in our frames we tend to ignore, distort or deny information that is inconsistent with what the frame suggests should be there.

  27. Newtonian Model • Newtonian models conceives universe as little billiard balls • Ideas such individualism and replaceable parts in industrial settings emerged from Newton’s idea of atomism • Aloneness, isolation, objectivism and positivism all are emerged from Newtonian perspective. • Environment is something external to the firm • When we act like a collection of bouncing billiard balls in a box, we're often acting against each other. There's a lot of conflict, competition, jealousy, grudges, and anger • today's business culture is operating from the four negative motivations of fear, greed, anger, and self-assertion

  28. Quantum physics paradigm • Universe as concretized balls that take no different • When two quantum systems meet,they combine and overlap their total identity. • All the patterns of dynamic energy within these systems change dramatically in relation to each other, leading to the emergence of a • " It's not separation; it's integration. It's not isolation; it's an understanding that we're all part of one great big interwoven system • You don't get the same kind of conflict, grudges, and anger because you've all become part of one system working together • You grow together and you create together
