Take a look at the new School of Curiosity Blog of my friend and Social Entrepreneur Malcolm McClean.
Malcolm makes things happen rather than waiting for things to come his way.
He has loads of creative ideas about work and innovation and all are rooted in common sense, pragmatism and simplicity.
I have a feeling Malcolm’s new blog will be as successful as his Bearhunt project and his Its a Goal project
Watch out for Malcolm’s name and get in touch with him if you want to change things and be part of projects aimed at improving people’s lives.
Good luck Malcolm and keep rattling cages!
My beloved Manchester United under the inspiring leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson won our 19th Championship yesterday ... all the more special that we now overtake our great rivals Liverpool who have won 18 titles. We are now officially the best team in English football history and that is a FACT …. Can someone let Mr Benitez know … given how he loves FACTS
It was so popular they’ve created a special motorway sign on the M6 to commemorate the occasion!
Eat your heart out Liverpool FC
Happy Days!
My mentor Ken and I have been exchanging email thoughts about TACIT KNOWLEDGE. We'd love to hear your ideas about how tacit knowledge can be effectively captured and used.
My understanding of tacit knowledge is knowledge that is difficult to write down or express. It’s kind of intangible and difficult to pass on because it’s so difficult to ‘get hold of.’ I suppose an example might be how some people can play the piano by ear rather than by learning from formal piano lessons. Another example might be a footballer (George Best, Pele or Maradona as examples) who does things that can’t be taught on the training pitch and are not learned through coaching. It’s just part of the person – it therefore makes it virtually impossible to pass on or teach.I love the idea that if we could understand it more and ‘bottle it’ we could use it as a force for good. So ..... Simplicity Blog reader ...... What’s your take on it?
The world of business is changing. There is a growing trend toward more honesty, more generosity, more just plain human behaviour. My mad friend (his words not mine) Joel D Canfield would like to lead the charge toward something totally different. Today, he's shifting his focus from his various businesses to a philosophy he thinks will change the world.
Joel says:
"Too many people spend life stuck, going through the motions; believing they know what to do and how to do it, but never really clear on why. Finding 'why' makes 'what' and 'how' become clear. I want to help folks who are stuck being what the world expected to find their why, to find meaning and joy in life, and show the world who they really are."

As expected, there's honesty, generosity, just plain human-ness. 10,000 words already written and hundreds of thousands to come. Free downloads. Room for conversation. A little insanity.
Joel's putting out the welcome mat right now.
