Field Note #047 | Consensus is often mistaken for agreement. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone agreed.At least, that is what the meeting appeared to say. But there is a difference between people believing a decision is right and people simply deciding that the conversation is over. ------ This episode explores what happens in the space between those two states. - Why does apparent agreement disappear during implementation? - Why can an entire room remain aligned while the organisation behaves as though nothing was settled? - And what can we learn by asking a deceptively simple qu
Field Note #046 | Consensus Is Not Agreement (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone agreed. At least, that is what the minutes said.Six weeks later the decision is being executed four different ways by people who were all in the same room.--- This episode is about the gap between people believing a decision is right and people deciding the conversation is finished.

Consider the agenda order and the distance between the screen and the person who always seems to know what to do next. Remove the individual, and the arrangement frequently produces a similar expert. --- In this episode, we examine Distributed Expertise — one of the most consequential and least studied phenomena in professional life. We look at why organisations misread where their intelli
FIELD NOTE #043 | The Work Is Usually Somewhere Else (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Work Is Usually Somewhere Else Most systems appear simpler than they really are. Not because people are hiding complexity. Because successful coordination often becomes invisible. ------ In this episode we explore: visible versus invisible work, organisational memory, adaptation, coordination, knowledge transfer, operational reliability. A conversation about the activities that rarely appear in reports yet quietly enable many of the results those reports celebrate. ------ One observation gui
