I was 13 when sent abroad to boarding school with the unexpected result of learning about my own country from another country's perspective. I have never been able to see the world the same way again, and almost 40 years later, I am still looking at the nuance way in which we collude to shape a world view that enables us to "act".
Fred, the point is, we cannot "know" but we can look at patterns and make reasonable assessments.
How could we know? That takes a societal valuing of recorded information management, that is, evidence-based practice in which we capture records of decision processes, outcomes, evaluation, integration into planning and action, etc. Then it takes the rigour and courage to look at patterns again - what evidence exists, and why? What gaps exist, and why?
RIM puts rigour into knowing and is fundamental...and it should occur as a routine byproduct of practice. The lack of attention to this my most organisations and most people is a key, if largely unrecognized, issue in transparency and accountability.Private Reply to John James O'Brien (new win) |
