Last night I dreamt about fair ground rides, specifically a drop tower and that same drop tower kept failing and it fell and slammed into crowds of people. Twice. Even after I woke up and went back to sleep. Then today I dreamt that I was pregnant. Mind you, I’m still in high school and…
In her exclusive interview with Kauppalehti, Finland’s leading business daily, Kati Nyman outlines several vital and multi-layered axes for the survival of organizations in today’s indeterminate world—where threats are increasingly formless and asymmetric. This analytical article explores three of the core concepts reflected in her discourse: 1. Resilient Networks and the Culture of Foresight: Decoding…
Understanding Persistent Cognitive Patterns and the Hidden Grip of the Primal Brain Many people assume their choices are rational—who they marry, where they work, how they live. But in reality, a hidden force beneath the surface of awareness often shapes these persistent decisions: the primal brain. 🧠 The Dual-Mind Model: One Brain for Survival, One…
In today’s fast-evolving landscape, where organizations are rapidly becoming more networked and complex, the sustainable health of any organization hinges on a fundamental principle: unified command and integration of all dispersed loops into a single coordinated structure. The choices of leaders and key members directly determine whether this unity remains active or is disrupted. Abstract:…
Abstract In the volatile and non-linear landscape of contemporary organizations, the need for leaders who go beyond crisis management and transformational change—those who can silently reconstruct the informational, ethical, and psychological infrastructure of organizations—has become more crucial than ever. The “Reparative Network Leadership” theory, focusing on the analysis of disrupted flows in organizational networks, redraws…
Abstract Authentic leadership, as an emerging approach in the literature of organizational leadership, has primarily emphasized moral virtues and inner integrity. However, in today’s complex, multilayered, and dynamic environments, this approach—if lacking three fundamental capacities: “future-oriented delay tolerance,” “detection of incongruent innovations,” and “experiential de-cycling skills”—often leads to the reproduction of organizational inefficiency. Based on…
Dream Narrative I dreamed I was in a vast, very large place—wide and long spaces. There was a fierce, big fire burning and the ground was glowing like red charcoal. Everything was orange. It seemed as if everything was hollowed out, used up, and finished. Most objects and columns were still left standing. I had…
In today’s complex and unstable world, the traditional leadership model—based on prediction, control, and rapid response—no longer suffices. Constant changes, structural uncertainty, and hidden psychological pressures within the layers of organizations call us to a new kind of leadership: one not rooted in providing answers, but in holding space. Leadership as “Space Holding” In the…
In recent years, theories such as Self-Determination Theory (SDT) have emerged as key frameworks for understanding human motivation. Rooted in concepts like autonomy, competence, and relatedness, these theories have opened up new horizons for designing educational, organizational, and social environments—settings that aim to cultivate intrinsic motivation and support human flourishing. However, as these theories are…
Full Dream Narrative I dreamed there was a war. I wasn’t in the middle of it, but it was as if I could see the scenes. Everyone in that war was Arab. There was another scene too; someone came to our house. He was looking for someone, but he mistook me for that person. He…
