No, if the system does not pay attention to the needs for personal & professional development of its people.

Yes, if the system also consciously and diligently develops them in alignment with the system's values and must win battles.

Yes. Because it will both "hurt" them enough as well as positively drive them to change their ways through the interaction with millions of people who come and visit them and bring an awareness that yo can also organise a country differently. And they can't beat down protests, because they'll confirm the image we have of them - see the leading question- and at a systemic level, the harder they push back, the harder they'll drive towards an eventual collapse of their model.

Musings on th FC site

Where is the "Post Comment" button?

How can I see/browse/search the member list of a group that I am part of?

Think user and listening, not push and talk.

Here's a story:

I got the paper FC in the mailbox yesterday. As always, I dove straight into it. I was touched by the passion about the new site and what you are trying to accomplish with it. So I thought: let's give them a chance.

I uploaded my contacts from LinkedIn. I see a list and a button that says: "Send Invitations"

First thoughts

I like the look and feel. It is light and bloggy, giving it an accessible appearance. I also like the organisation around core themes that you have chosen, i.e. innovation, technology, etc.

I played with the profile. I like it and I am sure you will take care of the nitty gritty. Of course you want me to defect from LinkedIn eventually and make FC my home.
