"Too often I see simplistic thinking used to accept that the results were good so what we did was wise or the results were bad so what we did was unwise. Sometimes those conclusions have merit. Sometimes they don’t. The results matter but understanding the nature of those results is important..."

"It is important to study choices customers make and learn from them. But being deceived by what their choices mean is easier than is usually appreciated.
...
It can be frustrating to be questioned about the evidence and reasoning behind the proposed actions you support. But you really should be in the habit of doing this to yourself before you make a decision..." -

...Try to fix the system and convince others to fix the system as you can. If some efforts are resisted try to adjust. Sometimes try a different strategy to get improvement. Sometimes I just drop trying to improve that particular thing. There are usually so many options for improvement it isn’t tough to find plenty of others that may be more successfully tackled...

The best defense against propaganda is #critical_thinking and transparency. If the population is trained and accepts being lead to conclusions with obvious propaganda it doesn't matter if you shut off one path for #propaganda others will emerge.
What you need to do is create an expectation of reasoned debate. Sadly the USA has done a very poor job of this. We have allowed politicians get away with obviously false claims...

"The data suggested that these small front-line problems collectively frustrate both the customer and the worker, and hinder the worker’s ability to perform effectively, but when taken out of context and viewed individually, appear trivial. Thus, system aberrations that are often dismissed in the literature as being “simple to solve” often persist because of a cycle of inactivity."

...when we fail to value the best ideas, instead valuing the new ideas, we are not as effective as we could be. We often accept pale copies of good old ideas instead of going to the good old ideas – which will often lead to a much richer source of knowledge...

"explore the method to effectively learn from decisions the organization makes. The idea seem simple but they are powerful.
Preparing a record of every decision of any significance, ones that involve doing something or (of particular importance) ones that involve not doing something.

The decision should be monitored to determine whether the expectations are being met..."Russell #Ackoff

“If you’re not having a good time, you’re really not learning”
Really what kids need to learn, they told us, are the “6 C’s”: #collaboration, #communication, #content, #critical_thinking, #creative_innovation, and #confidence. Play and the arts, based on their research, build the 6 C’shttps://nautil.us/to-supercharge-learning-look-to-play-292946/

When #critical_thinking isn’t enough: to beat information overload, we need to learn ‘#critical_ignoring ’
Most students fail at that task. Past studies show that, when deciding whether a source should be trusted, students (as well as university professors) do what years of school has taught them to do – they read closely and carefully. Attention merchants as well as merchants of doubt are jubilant.
