Really what do we do if we are not confirmed Labor! Please, to abstain or just ‘muck up your vote’ is cringeworthy. If it’s not a lost vote for the opposition (libs), then back the government and let them be less concerned about ‘numbers’ and more concerned about worthwhile, long term initiatives and policy. Give…
For a city of our size, one so connected to the ARTS, to have no specific, dedicated CONCERT Hall for such an exceptional ASO http://www.aso.com.au is more than regrettable, it is a slur on our priorities, our sense of self. Sure, the Adelaide Town Hall and the Festival Theatre have great attributes BUT, not only…
For more on this topic, email Rex@colourthinking.com.au Many people leave a new job quite soon because it was nothing like they thought it would be! Others find the culture of the new organisation is not supportive, this can be even more so when ‘you’ do not fit into the culture – maybe nationality, religion –…
2026 is about to arrive, almost at the speed of sound! If this coming year is about ‘turn around’, or ‘maximising opportunity’, there will need to be a thinking audit. This is not something that can be done by one’s self satisfactorily, if that opportunity is to be truly transformational. Incremental change can be part…
Comms ALALA. This is a five-step concept, not 2, 3 or 4 steps Ask Listen to their answer Ask about their response (hold back from telling) Listen to their answer Ask about their response (hold back from telling) This will very much assist in your hearing what they are saying…
One person’s analysis of the election drama – the debates et al Talking heads calling each other, or inferring, liar! So-called facts are manufactured to either make oneself look good or the other bad Mustn’t answer the question put, but lay back on rhetoric Rely on the ‘rusted on’ voted to sheep-like – follow Pretty…
There they are, the same old parties, same rhetoric, empty promises, saying what they think we want to hear. Then along came the TRUMPET OF PATRIOTS! Lots of money, huge promises, little substance, being yelled at us through these hideous yellow pages time and time again. If that’s not a big enough turnoff, we don’t…
Just one of the promises – Port Rush Road FIX?!?. How many kilometres, how much time, how much cost does this deliver to the drivers, the goods, to our purchases? Certainly Port Rush Road is a very difficult topic BUT, this cannot be the answer. Expediency for the ‘potential’ votes value,is not Leadership. There was…
Is ‘lying’ bad? Is there a time and place? Do we use it to settle children in uncomfortable situations? To save ourselves and/or our self-concept when we are confronted? Is it habitual or selective? Does a lie teach a lesson for future reference? Do I ever lie – well, yes; I do – do you?…
The question to be asking is not “what you want from another AI platform” but “what don’t you want”. “What has disappointed you about your current experience”. We rarely have a clear idea of our wants but recite what we have heard. Delving into the so-called negative will give much clearer signals to the sur/petitous*…
