About a year ago I started a blog, but is was sporatic and not linked to anything else. I had just "discovered" blogs but had not yet "gotten the joke". I have spent much of the last year, mostly in the last few months, reading blogs extensively. I am starting to get the feel. This blog (inside conversation) is more focused on creating a conversation, the old blog was just a place for me to capture random ideas for future reference. I guess now is the future. I don't expect anyone will ever read these but I am going to post these links to my old blog just for fun. Actually, there are some good ideas there, if I do say so my self. Posted in ascending date order, there is some progression of thought.
Blogs I read
Recomended Books
Seth Godin: Purple Cow
A Remarkable book. (Sorry, I couldn't resist)Christopher Locke, Rick Levine, Doc Searls, David Weinberger: The Cluetrain Manifesto: The End of Business As Usual
This book resonated with me when I read if several years ago. It wasn't until the last year or so that I fully understood what it was saying.Clayton M. Christensen: The Innovator's Dilemma (HarperBusiness Essentials)
One of the few books on business that introduced me to fundamentally new ideas.Fritjof Capra: The Hidden Connections: Integrating The Biological, Cognitive, And Social Dimensions Of Life Into A Science Of Sustainability
This book first introduced me to the concept of sustainability.Jamshid Gharajedaghi: Systems Thinking: Managing Chaos and Complexity : A Platform for Designing Business Architecture
Fantastic treatment of how to apply systems thinking to organizations.Senge, Scharmer, Jaworski, Flowers: Presence: Human Purpose and the Field of the Future
Many will read this as New Age fluff, but for me it resonated. We have to change onthe inside before we can change our environment.
