A series on information processing patterns, at the level of corporations and people. Based on scientific systems theory, not IT. Welcome.
Some of you may already have noticed: I'm the mind behind 'The Organizational Personality (TOP)' method.
A corporation as a personality, what's the point?
The story began in 2015.
After nearly seventeen years in a global corporation, I was taking things more lightly and casually looking around when something caught my eye:
A newspaper article about system theory.
Rigorous academic personality psychology.
A highly sophisticated theory, known to be demanding, a real rabbit hole.
My analytical, holistic brain had only one reaction:
I want this. I need this.
And what began with intellectual curiosity and the sheer joy of thinking slowly evolved into something more practical: A robust method for Governance professionals.
At its core lies a word that has become famous in the age of AI:
Pattern recognition
But not just any patterns.
Information processing patterns.
The characteristic patterns how corporations process information.
Through that lens, a great deal about an organization becomes visible, allowing risks to be assessed & addressed accordingly.
So I'm starting a LinkedIn series talking about these patterns.
If this sparks your curiosity, come along.
