Synergy! THE FLIGHT OF THE GEES Science has discovered that geese fly forming a "V" because when each bird flaps its wings, it produces a movement in the air that helps the goose go behind it. EXPLANATION Flying in "V," the whole flock increases their flying power by at least 71% more than if every bird did it alone. CONCEPTION "When we share a common direction and have a sense of community, we can get where we want easier and faster"... This is the benefit of mutual support. EXPLANATION Each time a goose leaves the formation and feels the resistance of the air, it realizes the difficulty of flying alone and immediately rejoins the row to benefit from the power of the forward mate. CONCEPTION "If we had the logic of a goose, we would stick with those heading in the same direction." EXPLANATION When the leader of the geese gets tired, he moves to one of the back seats, and another goose takes his place. CONCEPTION "Life is not about standing out individually; it's about working as a team." EXPLANATION The geese that go behind make a sound of their own, and they often do this to motivate those in front to keep up speed. CONCEPTION """A word of encouragement produces big results.""". EXPLANATION Eventually, when a goose is sick or gets injured by a shot, two of its mates break out of the training and follow him to help and protect him. They stay with him until he is again fit to fly or until he dies; only then the two companions return to the band or join another group. CONCEPTION "Something we can learn from geese and it's to stand beside each other, helping and accompanying each other through the difficult times." DON'T FLY ALONE!! (Down from the net)

I like writing science fiction with brave characters. And of course I write the kind of nature-inspired dialogues that in my modest opinion we need right now. We are nature. We are biological beings. One species. And nature, planet, the universe is antimatter. Will the future be for antimatter engines? And how do we prevent that some madman will use all this technology for nuclear bombs? Well that's simply wisdom and the power of one individual who dares to change the course of swarms I'm not afraid of the future. I'm participating in the future I want to create locally, regionally. Adapted to local ecosystems and local cultures. Are you? Tell us about YOUR project underneath this post. A training in super-short pitching. Maybe an investor watches this space... With Abundance 4 ALL, we are part of projects in different stages and different sectors. Not in energy (yet), but we are present finding the gaps in solutions for wildfire prevention. We help unleash subsidies for redesign of industrial estates (yes, also with local energy sources such as heat exchangers so the estate becomes a waterfall of abundant energy), healthy buildings that cool the planet and roads that make batteries unnecessary. Shipbuilding in combi with the water. #biomimicry Always interconnected solutions. We mainly help implement already existing solutions. We campaign and find buyers. And we are part of radically innovative think-tanks in e.g. tourism to prevent the local problems of mass tourism. Humans are makers. And the human world on our planet will be completely different in 2222 or maybe even in 2033 or 2055. Do you have enough imagination??? Do you dare to be fully alive and contributing??? Do you dare to breathe and scream and find your power??? This post is my personal pitch to filmmakers, publishers, and media. How about a groundbreakingly realistic story with contra-cliches that are sooooooo true... If we would only implement interconnected innovations faster and transition faster to beyond industrialism... Biomimicry has it ALL... #energy #antimatter #future #planet #health #human #technology

What do #Neanderthals, #projectmanagement and #ganttcharts have in common? Neanderthals lived in Europe ca 300,000 ago, in the coldest climatic conditions ever known in the European regions. They were excellent hunters, innovative tool maker, and the first to master fire. But Gantt? Maybe first a few words about me. From leading single projects to managing #portfolios of up to 1000 development programs of varying complexity, covering #FMCG to #automotive giants to #aerospace pioneers, I gained experiences I’d like to share– and if you read on, you will see the Neanderthal connection. I started my journey as scientist at the German Aerospace Center in the field of non-stationary #fluiddynamics & #acoustics. My activities on flame instabilities in the project “500MW on a single shaft turbine” contributed to the latest class of today’s gas turbines. While working on this and a series of shorter commercial #consulting projects, I derived some key learnings on #projects: 1)     EVERY project needs to start with a thorough planning, containing the basic tasks, their duration and their dependencies. I started my first job with a #Ganttchart – and these charts haven’t left me until today. 2)     Most projects don’t run according to plan – there are surprises, scope changes, learnings; #projectmanagement is the art of adapting, while keeping the goal in mind, and avoiding to creep the scope. #agile 3)     If you work on #innovation, taming the flame, there will be burns and scars, there are issues and unforeseen circumstances. The heart of #innovationmanagement is to have room for error, for trying out, for optimizing and for learning: #failuretobefactoredin. 4)     Many side activities of project work, the #mathematicalmodeling, the #failureanalysis, ... are a source of further inspiration and as invisible as important, building the foundation for a next success. 5)     Don’t be fooled about #correlation and #causation. Correlations are easy to spot, and given the time pressure, management favors firefighters jumping on a #correlation – to find out much later that there is no causation... However, how does that link to Neanderthals? They were #innovators; they used and improved their tools, were the first to recognize the potential of fire and tamed it successfully. They planned ahead for tough winters by storing food and wood – although they most likely didn’t use a #ganttchart. Science debates the root cause for their extinction (causation again 😉!), but the upcoming homo sapiens was probably the better project manager – by not only hunting, but adding vegetables to their nutrition, planning better and thus becoming more resilient towards the harsh climate conditions. The better innovator survived! #ProgramManagement #LeadershipExcellence #StrategicInnovation #CareerJourney #ConnectWithPurpose
