How do you feel about constraintsโ
You know, ๐ the limits of scope, time, budget, regulations, funding, technical feasibility, current capabilities etc.
Does it conjure up knit brows ๐ฎโ๐จโ, eye rolls ๐โ, and clenched fists ๐โ? Do you see it as something to accept, overcome, and/or comply with?
What if, we responded with lifted brows ๐คจ, a sparkle in our eyes ๐คฉโ, and open hands ๐โ? What if, we saw it as a challenge to which to apply our human ingenuity and creativity - to create the desired impact and value in the most efficient and effective way?
๐ซโ That is the vision and challenge proposed by Kate Raworth of Doughnut Economics. Only in this case, she asks us to look beyond the constraints and responsibilities of projects and quarterly results to how we might operate our organizations in a world of "real" limits and responsibilities - within the doughnut of our social and planetary boundaries - for the impact that really matters!
