This reminds me of the book 'Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance'. Understand the need first.

As usual a great article - really distilled for me to the statement that a more healthy population, not more nurses, is actually what everyone wants. Brilliant and incisive.

Hello Polly, I have recently joined the Advisory Board of The Possibility Science Institute - a nonprofit organization and the institutional home for Possibility Sciences, a new discipline being developed in partnership with the University of Arizona to transform how breakthrough innovation is done in a world that must rebuild its most critical systems.

More at https://www.possibilitysciences.org/why-now-1 . Would love to connect with you and see if you might be interested in joining our first co-hort of Possibilians - the human layer of Possibility Sciences. A Possibilian treats imagination as infrastructure: map the system, design the constraints, simulate consequences, then build in public. It’s a craft that fuses systems thinking, social and behavioral science, advanced AI/simulation, design thinking, network theory, exponential technologies, and public-interest tech so that every experiment becomes reusable evidence, every breakthrough becomes shared capability, and markets become vehicles for regeneration.

Great piece - and love the reference to Kirklees of course!
