Talks about the need for Design to extend massively and gives the example of NFL players with a 4 year life and how they need to be helped in transitioning to new careers. Strikes me that this is what we are doing with Ethos Transition. Lots of connections here.

The book by an old friend that I was reviewing the first draft of over the weekend also has much to say on this whole issue. Alas, am no at liberty to talk about it, obviously. However.. the Author would like to join up with us on one of the First Wednesday sessions and does interesting work in fields of interest to us. So hopefully he can share some thoughts with us relatively soon.. <evil pigly gin>

Yep, and of course good design and architecture extend to absolutely everything that there is.  Not just in the physical.  In the virtual and informational, as well.

Thank you for this, it makes a great update / precis to this longer talk http://youtu.be/lGOTwFvkfhU . There is a definite, growing movement towards deep design, where a close working relationship leads to collaborations, ideas and innovations that break the sadly too prevalent idea of design as just being about making things pretty. If it has an output, a product or a process, it can be designed. A real call to action.

This goes on a lot for elite athletes. GB Athletics run a scheme, started in Australia I believe, to manage this transition.

His passion is self-evident. Good catch Rob. And yes I saw you posting on G+: good man! The network of networks effect is so relevant.

Leading without doing (have to watch to the end)

Different styles of conducting an orchestra as a metaphor for life.

The punchline quote at the end is lovely.  It goes something like:  "if you love something enough you can give it away".  The conductor just stands there with his arms crossed and conducts with facial expressions.  How great is that!

This should work and should be tried throughout the world.
