Enlightened Trial And Error Succeeds

trial and error succeeds over the planning of the lonegenius "Enlightened trial and error succeeds over the planning of the lone genius" is a quote from a great video demonstrating how teamwork and agile concepts at IDEO is used to peter skillman successfully deliver innovation and solutions in a non-IT environment in just 5 days! Some highlights ideo which I thought were pertinent to agile: The people are not experts at any given area.  They innovate by using and applying the process. The person leading the team is the leader because he is good with groups, not because of seniority. There are no titles, no permanent (role) assignments - everyone is a generalist but brings specific skills. Everyone communicates and share what they learn. Iterative development with showcases/demonstrations of prototypes to get feedback for the next iteration of the product. Some of IDEO's mantra for innovation: One conversation at a time Stay focused on topic Encourage wild ideas Defer judgment Build on the ideas of others No criticisms (this is self moderated) Time-boxing, to prevent the process from going on for ever (Parkinson's Law and Pareto Principle comes to mind). Self-organization. Team judges what are the best ideas (team votes). Fail often in order to succeed sooner (fail safe culture). Having an open mind - think outside the box. Belief that focused chaos can be constructive. High use of visualization tools, story boards, information radiators. Fresh ideas come faster in a fun place. High level of collaboration. Teamwork, teamwork, and more teamwork! Rate this:Share this:TweetMoreEmailLike this:Like Loading...

Now, before getting into that, a quick aside. This principle, that "enlightened trial and error outperforms the planning of flawless intellects," is quite profound. It is based on the reality that we are finite, and is in fact one of the key lessons of human https://chrischan.com.au/2011/06/06/enlightened-trial-and-error-succeeds-over-the-planning-of-the-lone-genius/ history. For example, it shows us why central planning doesn't work as an economic system. Or, better, the failure of central planning as an economic system manifests the truth of this principle (which we can now use to discourage new attempts at increased central planning, BTW!). The mass collaboration of the internet is also powered, in part, by this principle of enlightened trial https://www.whatsbestnext.com/2009/03/enlightened-trial-and-error-outperforms-the-planning-of-flawless-intellects/ and error -- in this case, the enlightened trial and error of essentially millions of people collaborating (directly and indirectly) on a massive scale because of technology. For example, the team at OmniGroup created the task management application OmniFocus. But they encourage user feedback and even gather data on how their program is used. They are continually building out and improving the program on the basis of how people actually use it and on the basis of what the users identify as potentially being most important to them. That is only one small example of how many things, even though ultimately developed by a company, are now developed "in collaboration with" large groups of real people. There are also many other forms of mass collaboration that are now happening (on this see the excellent book Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything). We are just on the cusp of some very powerful changes that will come about from this new way of working and thinking, made possibly by the web (and now, especially, web 2.0 functionality). So this principle is very, very significant and has very w
