It is time to solve a fundamental problem that plagues progressives everywhere – the lack of seed money to get innovative projects off the ground and the absence of workable funding models to scale up the ongoing efforts to create systemic cultural, economic, and political change. Every major economic paradigm shift throughout modern history has been propelled forward by the influx of financial capital to build institutions that support the new framework. In the 1850′s and 60′s it was investment in cheap steel to lay down railways. A century later there were massive capital projects to build the interstate highway system and the explosion of suburban landscapes that accompanied it. Now we face a deeper challenge. Not only must we cultivate technological breakthroughs that drive us toward sustainability – a huge challenge in its own right – but we must also create a different paradigm for finance that liberates us from the consumer culture threatening the ecosystems of the world. http://www.cognitivepolicyworks.com/blog/2011/02/18/how-well-fund-the-progressive-movement/

Communicate Hope: Using Games and Play to Improve Productivity - 42projects

http://www.managementexchange.com/story/communicate-hope-using-games-and-play-improve-productivity-42projects Challenge: There is a stigma around the words “game” and “play” and resistance to view them as viable approaches to “work”. Language and traditional definitions get in the way. Many boomers do not believe “game” and “work” can co-exist. Fix: To overcome that, we are very rigorous in our data collection and documentation efforts. A “game master” role is filled for each game we deploy – a person who oversees the rules, player feedback, goal and task achievement, and fairness. We are trying to create a track record of success and learning.
