Joho Notes…

  • It’s the end of the Age of Information!
  • Today we’re good at managing information. We are?
  • Today we reduce information to make is manageable.
  • Today we have to throw out most of the information because we can’t manage it.
  • On the web there is a level of detail built into the links but these links are the opposite of information!!!
  • We’re good at managing crap! The problem will be the abundance of good information.
  • Leaders lead by restricting information.
  • Imposed artificial scarcity of information.
  • We’ve taken a structural flaw in the way that we manage information and made it a virtue that we need strong leadership.
  • Crowdsourcing Leadership
  • Assumes that you have lots of good smart people.
  • “Decision making is a failure of leadership”
  • Realists would not have built the web or wikipedia. They’re not ambitious enough;
  • “Leadership is a property of the network”.
  • Obama is a strong traditional leader that understands the network.
  • “Conversations and intimacy don’t scale”.
  • Question: how would the Obama open network, work within the current framework of laws? Is this possible?
  • The rules of the “social system” can have a massive effect on the results of the network and therefore democracy.
  • We need less leaders and more love!
