This short article contains the visual outline of the article, using an OpenSource "mind mapping" software and community, called Xmind.net The original abstract and bibliography was published on 2009-09-10 democracy @ work: the map

everybody talks about democracy- at the polls.

but why limiting democracy to a voting exercise? how could you extend that into the workplace?

and what are the consequences of new technologies and media access to the workplace social environment



read this short article for an explanation of the visual map (and a link to the source, so that you can study its details!)

visual approach

A picture is worth 1000 words.

Actually, a picture can be used as an outline to understand more than 1000 words.

I have no artistic pretense- but I think visually.

As explained in the the presentation, the abstract is the first step, followed by this map, and then, the article.

Read the abstract if you want to think about your own position on the subject. Read the map if you want to just see what are my arguments. And read the article if you want to read my position and some experience-based ideas and suggestions.

And not only bottom-line oriented: also non-profit and cultural. This post is about the difference about changing rules and changing minds, and some potential uses in the political, business, personal environment. Highlights: who controls the controller?

first extreme: the consensus-building inserted in a rule-oriented environment

Second extreme: the rule-orientation inserted in consensus-building environment

Weaknesses in training, weaknesses in results

do your new rules consider the organizational cultural environment?

introducing a change in rules requires changing mindsets

step-by-step: "terraforming" for rules change
