A friend an I were sitting talking about world views. Her husband is an architect and great designer. I was saying that design is a new skill being requested of leaders and I didn’t know the principles of design. What is design really? How does the world look to a designer? So I looked on the web. Principles of design are:
- Balance
- Proportion
- Rhythm
- Emphasis
- Unity
Talk about teaching leaders soft skills! This should really rattle the “bean counters”.
That conversation morphed into a discussion of a global worldview as well as a technological world view. I am acutely aware that Bill Gates, for example, doesn’t see the same world I do. That got me to thinking about principles of a global worldview and principles of a technological worldview. Food for thought and future research!
