The Mission

Unequivocally, the world’s most complex problems are built from foundational elements. 

The root causes for dysfunction with and across institutions, fields of discipline, for- and non-profit industries, even whole governments are often born of: a failure of both vision and leadership that propagates as failures in actions; stalled communicative efforts across disparate groups of people and across interdisciplinary fields; the rise of conflict unto an impasse that owes to the aforementioned inability to communicate, compounded by the manner in which we gather, interpret and believe information. In praxis, our individual focus of discipline, our defaults and proclivities and ultimately, our egos and insecurities often supersede the complex nuances of a given problem at hand. Our inherent biases about what we do and do not know as well as believe can thus prevent the likelihood of an engaged, collaborative and interdisciplinary approach towards a holistic and effective solution. If we only know what we already know, we cannot change the course of our thoughts and subsequent, executive decisions.
