Joseph Manuel's Story
Job Profile:
Chief Knowledge Architect and Facilitator of First Discipline
Further development of the tool, methodology and practice of an alternate paradigm of management in the Indian and global context
The Decisions That Matter
The decision to position myself as a facilitator of accelerated learning and development
Career Profile:
The current role, Chief Knowledge Architect and Facilitator of First Discipline, involves applying the integral framework and methodology that has been evolved since 1990. First Discipline was founded by me while working full time in developmental contexts to leverage my experience and learning.
Degrees That Matter:
It is not degrees of certifications that matter though they are important but what have you learnt at the end of the day. Keep reflecting on this with your social networks
Working Life Management:
Work is the way one expresses oneself. Work is life itself.
Done Differently:
Nothing.
Changes In The Professional Environment:
Unbelievably fast. The best is yet to come
Growth Strategy:
I believe in life long learning. Most of our notions of leadership are obsolete.
Other Thoughts:
I would be interested in working together with SI if you find my work to be of significant relevance in our current context. I personally believe that it is important that we need to prepare ourselves for the next big thing that is in the making
