There's a "soft skills shortage" amongst young people because state and capital don't want you to be proficient at conflict resolution, resource management, risk management, forecasting, task scheduling and networking

They want you dependant on the system to do all that for you, put simply they want obedient workers that can push the buttons in their cubicle and not well rounded socially proficient people capable of organizing a revolution

It's a Tool
It's a Person
It's a Hypervigilance Problem

The tech industry's insistence on distinguishing between "soft skills" — caring for people — and "hard skills" — engineering rigor — is a reflection of the Cybernetics split itself. First-order thinking framed as "hard skills." Second-order thinking framed as "soft skills." This distinction, based on felt sense alone, does not hold under epistemic pressure. Neither does it within the causality-driven epistemology of the tech industry itself, in which only measurable impact is real, or as Silicon Valley likes to put it: #MoveFastAndBreakThings

Imagine Margaret Hamilton had built NASA's Apollo 11 flight computer with that mindset. History would remember a failed moon landing and dead astronauts. "Hard skills" and "soft skills" are two sides of the same coin. The care is the code and the code is the care. Hamilton — the woman who coined the term "software engineering" — understood this. Silicon Valley chose to forget.

We're watching the wine glass break in real time. 🍷

Заповеди современного околоайтишника. Больше нытья, меньше работы

Околоайтишник — это сотрудник IT-компании, который не занимается непосредственно производством. Не буду перечислять многочисленные профессии, которые входят в это определение. Их и так уже слишком много, их количество непрерывно растет. Иногда околоайтишники по недоразумению проникают и в ряды тех, кто занимается разработкой. Если они все делают правильно, им удается надолго там закрепиться и успешно паразитировать. Околоайтишник, как правило, не имеет профильного образования для работы в IT, но при этом очень хочет приобщиться ко всем благам и привилегиям «айтишечки», получить доступ к заветной кормушке. Чтобы зайти за своего и выжить в этом «странном» мире, околоайтишник должен соблюдать определённые правила.

Good read about #AppreciativeInquiry: https://positivepsychology.com/appreciative-inquiry-process/

I know quite some folks who got inspiration from this method also for their 'everyday #communication skills'.

So sharing is caring. :)

While it may seem a generic Peace & Love message, it has very practical implications.

In a team/org one cannot _sense_ and respond effectively when people don't speak freely and deep listening and empathy are lacking. No tool/AI can fully make up for that.

This is true in our orgs, as well as in our online and in-person Complexity community. Our social skills have consequences.
