Product Development is an infinite game (according to Glenda Eoyang)
- It needs a long-live perennial value stream.
The rules of this infinite game are:
1. Inquiry
2. Adaptive Action
Inquiry
Answers have short shelf-life. Stick with the questions, therefore the focus on inquiry. The ability to continuously stand in inquiry is a core skill for working effectively in complex contexts.
The four simple rules for inquiry:
- Turn judgement into curiosity
- Turn disagreement into shared exploration
- Turn defensiveness into self-reflection
- Turn assumptions into questions
Adaptive Action
Adaptive Action is an elegant and powerful method for engaging with dynamical change in an ever-emerging, always self-organising world.
The three questions we have to pose are:
- What?
- So what?
- Now what?
