Visual Flow of Ideas
My latest three buzzes received more than three hundred comments on beBee alone. These comments are mostly in response to previous comment(s). The flow of comments may have been interrupted occasionally; alas they produced great ideas. This buzz is a humble attempt to review the new ideas these discussions revealed.
I am doing this with a purpose- to show how the exchange of ideas under certain conditions is a great way for all of us to learn, grow and create new ideas or modified ones for the betterment of all of us.
The discussions revealed a butterfly effect. The seemed little importance of a comment turned out to have a big effect in stirring the discussions. The effect was much greater than the cause. Equally important the discussions revealed the need to be able to visually see our different opinions to see the gaps and how to deal with them without deviating from the main purpose of writing a buzz. For example, if a comment attacks the author in person showed a variety of responses. Harvey Lloyd suggested ignoring them. Sara Jacobovici suggested the author to control his response because no one can control the commentor. Susan Rooks, the Grammar Goddess suggested avoidance whereas Lisa Vanderburg suggested forgiveness, if at all possible.
The author, I, suggested that the comments have their own risk. Like any risk, the impact of risk is defined by its frequency and impact. The scope of risk was further elaborated upon by Deb Helfrich who saw the risk as a contaminator to the discussion community and isn’t limited to the author and its negative impact isn’t limited to the author only, but also extends to the discussion community. Lisa Vanderburg expressed similar views. Chris Guest Cert.Prof.Acc.SA picked the thread and called for the need to mitigate such risks so as not to be repeated frequently and flow out of their tolerance level. Cyndi wilkins expressed her concern on the risk of those writers of negative comments. Harvey Lloyd picked these ideas by suggesting the introduction of a graphic of the risk of losing our purpose of discussions. To my best understanding I draw the graphic below.
(You may notice that I highlighted the DISC segment of Discernment in red for a purpose to explain soon).
You can see easily that the above discussions don’t fall on the diagonal line and deviate from it. We differ in our weighing risks and their impact. They range from zero risk (by avoiding, neglecting, ignoring and the like responses to seeing the effect being repeated and affecting the community and poisoning discussions and escalating to almost a value of 100). We need to see to what extent our actions deviate from the straight line so as to see how best to deal with them.
One reason for these deviations is that we have different DISC Profiles. MY profile is mostly D for (Dominant), followed by I (Influence), 33%) and I am low at both S (Steadiness) and C (Compliance). My behaviors shall be different from those people who are mostly S or D. Combining the Disc Graph with the above risk graph may be of great help for us to understand our varying responses to the impact of risks. This in turn would help us in better understanding each other and on expanding our tolerance zones.
The beauty of the above discussions is that they make management more visual and easier therefore to spot differences and build bridges of understanding. I like therefore the variation that Milos Djukic suggested for DISC to read as:
D for Determination
I for Interweaving of internal maturity
S for Self-similarity
C for C-butterfly
We have a new DISC system that warrants a dedicated buzz to explore it depth. I promise to do soon.
What helps us more in minimizing the deviations that drift us from the diagonal straight line in the risk graph above is using filters as Sara Jacobovici suggested. Meanwhile, Jean L. Serio CPC, CeMA offered her filtering system composed of:
Maintain your professionalism; 2) be respectful and agree to disagree. 3) Speak only for yourself (we have no right to speak for others unless asked to); 4) Speak of the facts (absolutely essential) or use the phrase 'I believe'.
Chris… suggested an expansion of the filtering system to include:
5.Reserve the right NOT to comment if one has nothing of value to add (Often my approach personally; although I may add a "relevant" if any comment /(s)resonates)
6.Be sure to read the full buzz and the commentary sequence before adding tones own comment. This is essential to fully and properly contextualize ones response.
Yolanda Ávila Márquez suggested using Socrates three filtering system. So, we may combine all these ideas to develop the beBee filtering system.
The Blue Ocean Strategy has four pillars. These are Increase, Decrease, Eliminate and Create. These could also be adding the Filtering Pillar to increase its applicability. Avoid is part of this filter.to it. We are here suggesting a modified Blue Ocean Strategy.
These are some of the highlights of our discussions. beBee is truly providing us with an ample room to build on our discussions and move forward.

No. There are explanations worth giving but while some of us are adaptive to thinking, the human race in general in creating conceptions such as nationality and religion are drawn to concreting what should adaptive. While the adaptive mind can adapt, the history of concrete and linear thinking has shown how symbols have been literally translated. Instead of the river of life being a metaphor, Indians treat the Ganges as a literal translation. This is why I consider HR to be the bastion of a religion rather than a business enterprise. For sure there are great entrepreneurs who give life and meaning to HR, but just as religion has become obsessed with the symbol, so does the rank and file of HR. The last time I upset command and control HR it was a Myers-Briggs exercise that HR group was having with employees. That showed me how a DISC profile can quickly turn into a DICK profile. Why would people interpret these things any different in the future, when there are so many still messing up the past. I celebrate this buzz because you are adaptive and the comments have my regard because you tend to attract adaptive minds, but no matter how well we explain these things, these things flow back to that very space which we find so much comedy, from Dilbert to Office Space, from House of Lies to Swimming with Sharks. An explanation of a DICK profile does nothing to enlighten the world but the existence of literal minded HR folk mean that we are left only with that image of comedy and tragedy as the paradox we have failed to overcome - and so instead of explanation, one must smile knowing that this is still actual life. This cow path has been walked on so long that we notice only the road less traveled and in that is the humour.

I guess i am a little sensitive in this issue. We work with students all day that are unbending in their point of view. Our goal is to help them step back take another look and see if they can find different ways to express themselves. The students are emotionally disturbed. They act out their emotions in ways society can not handle. Criticism here at the school is defined so broadly that it is difficult express to students what criticism may look like. It gets a bit hairier when you try to help students understand the different nuances of negative and positive. Our methods truly zero in on the response, not the stimulus itself. The students are taught that they have the power to choose how the interpret a event, situation and how their choices should be guided by the outcome they want. In debriefing with students concerning the outcomes we typically inquire did they get what they wanted from the behaviour. So many of my comments are standing on this fundamental understanding of the human dynamic. Self Awareness first, then discernment through analysis of events and potential outcomes based on your response. This has been one of the best threads on beBee since my start. We truly are tackling some of the grand issues of our time. They sting as the various opinions surface, but amazingly, the dialogue continues. Thank you @Ali Anani for your continued efforts to help us better understand our paradigm.

If I may suggest to you if you would draw what I coin here as "experience mapping" then I believe that from your comments it shall be different than others. This way we may compare experience maps and we may draw nice conclusions. Would you be willing to draw yours and I draw mine and then publish a joint buzz?

I agree, mine was more cautionary in nature. Giving community members the benefit of the doubt before the label i reason is good community integrity. Until they prove otherwise.

I wish to add a note here to your comment Deb\ud83d\udc1d Lange, Brand Ambassador @beBee. You are talking about extreme cases. Either these people are irreparable, or they may have unique capabilities. Just today morning I was thinking about the same. Science is discovering for example that in extremely low temperatures the reaction rates increase for some chemicals. This defies logic because we know reaction rates normally increase with temperature as the reacting molecules have more opportunity to collide with each other. I am baffled by how some materials behave when are places on the "edge of extremes". I promise to cover this topic soon. What I am saying here is that being at the extreme may reflect completely unacceptable behaviors, or we are on the verge of some interesting findings. Just to be careful when drawing the separation line.
Ali Anani

You "catch" me in the proper time as I am thinking on how to link the WPD factor (Wonderment, Passion, Drive)into the DiSC Profile. I think I found a way. Within the context of your comment I may say that people who impede the passions of wonderment, curiosity, deprive people of their pride and drive to work they are offline. Somebody might oppose me passionately because of concern for the purpose of organization is in fact an assistant in my exploration journey. People who show pride in what they do and drive to do it because they believe in what they do are certainly welcome to any organization, even though they might be opposing the mode by which others do the work. These people filter their passion throughout the organization. People who distinguish passion are the one to be watched. Yes, labeling people is dangerous more often than not. Even if they belong to the given label, they may feel they own it and therefore adapt their style to fit the frames of the label given to them. Labels become like names- simply owned. Yes, I take your points here very seriously. You actually bring an issue that deserves our attention and I don't believe it has been given its worth of taking care of.

The project Ali \ud83d\udc1d Anani, Brand Ambassador @beBee is working on is one where we may be able to identify when we encounter a "narcissistt" is it truly the case or is it a personality conflict? We live in a very sensitivity period of humanity. Folks are quick to label based on familiarity provided by media as opposed to their own senses seeking understanding. If we have "time" (A large gap between stimulus response) then we should use it to seek understanding, if time is not present and i must act "right now", pull the gun and get r done. A community grows stronger by accepting those who are not like us, through understanding. We need not accept the folks who wish to subvert the community for their own good. But we do need to make sure that this is their objective before we pin the label. Labels are a bit of a sore spot for myself. Back in the early 80's i would use derogatory terms to describe groups of people. I wasn't a bigot or nasty to folks but the terms were just part of my culture. Until one day i had a preacher man explain to me what the derogatory labels really mean. It demonstrated hate about a nebulous group that did not exist in reality. He went on and referenced two or three of my friends and asked if they fit under that label. I said no they are cool. He continued to question, Then who does the label fit? I couldn't answer him other than the standard BS of media. Labels hurt both the user and the person being labeled. Don't let labels define people, define them for yourself. So labels should be like Ghost Peppers, apply sparingly, less you heat up more than just your mouth. Your points and comments are always awesome, i enjoyed this one.

The dynamic discussions has not only to the writing of this buzz, but more to come. I am currently engaged privately with Harvey Lloyd on the DiSC profile and its impact on leadership. I plan to report our findings soon. Yes, when we care about the community with open senses we all benefit. I lived this experience right here.

Your comment resonates with me so well and in a timely manner Harvey Lloyd. I realized how plotting different personalities on one diagram what chaos we end up with. To bring order into such chaos we need a purpose that is above the ego of any one. We need to remove the stone and also to be able of which stone to remove. Yes, and I shall take note of this comment in a buzz on DiSC soon based mainly on our exchanges of ideas here and your great insights Harvey.
Harvey Lloyd
منذ 6 سنوات #62
If we could see the profile piece as a way to bring down walls so that our skills can be applied, then it is helpful. DiSC is not a skill in itself, but rather a self awareness exercise for us to see our footprint along with many others within a success paradigm. My glass half full mentality states that success is right in front of us, we need only remove the barriers. I have heard it said a stone mason doesn't build a statue, they merely remove the stone that wasn't suppose to be there in the first place, revealing the statue. The stone in metaphor, represents our communications barrier and understanding within the success paradigm. We need only to remove this barrier and our skills will reveal success. Five people in a room all attempting to satisfy their own paradigm will only end in mediocrity or at worst failure. Five people in a room that can communicate through understanding communications principals that DiSC offers can reveal a successful outcome.
Ali Anani
منذ 6 سنوات #61
I am reading this comment having just finished thoroughly your email and the "golden" report on DiSC. I have just sent you an email in response. The DiSC profile is really becoming like a bird with two wings and about to fly into more purposeful usages. I can see the profile of Red Herring distracting us from the main purpose. I strongly believe that HR and executive directors should find this ongoing dialogue of great relevance to them and I wish they would get more involved in the discussions. The issues are very relevant to them. I wish somebody would share this buzz to the HR Hive or the Managers Hive. I don't want to go too far at this point of time. How about using these profile in risk management in banks, for example? Too much thinking is awaiting us.
Harvey Lloyd
منذ 6 سنوات #60
Keep in mind my pragmatism is almost a psychosis. The graph should be internalized and used as a quick reference when in meetings and you see folks displaying profile data instead of offering service to the purpose. It gives you a way to communicate more effectively and get them back to the purpose. I dont know if you are familiar with the "Red Herring". This is a concept in negotiating that is used to drop additional risk points onto the graph in order to divert communications away from the original purpose. Leaders are well aware of this tactic and realize that the person that throws it out is usually harboring a fear of exposure in some area. Leaders also know not to go fishing with the red herring in the water but rather deal directly with the exposure issue. DiSC can help us better understand motivation in others when the red herrings show up. Most importantly it somewhat expands on Frankl's thoughts of the gap between stimulus and response. My hope for this discourse is that some find new paradigms when communicating in medium to high risk profile settings. Understanding peoples motivations can lead to addressing fears and not character. My belief is we only have influence on others, offering a 1% chance of success. Exploiting this 1% in crisis is where success lies. DiSC/Myers-Briggs helps us exploit the 1% chance by scrapping off the narrative surrounding the comment to see if substance exists.

just by reviewing the possible DISC profiles we may be amazed by their varietis. These are like fingerprints and our authenticity. We accept the gift of our fingerprints so we need to accept our DISC profiles. They are our giftd as you say. We also need to underdtand other profiles to lead with knowledge. The four pillars of Blue 9Ocen Strategy and the four pillars of DISC profiles and I am now looking into new ways of marrying them. I have just thought of a new possibility.

We are all born with gifts. If could be so bold to state that each DiSC profile is the expression of that gift. Yes I am a high D and i had to learn how to do "I". Generally i am good at influence but my strong suit is leading in face of high risk. This is my strength. I am not a natural I. I need to understand all letters and profiles. This gives me the ability to lead different types, but i can't become another. Nor do i want to return my gift and get someone else's. Leadership harnesses the gifts of humanity to expose their gifts on the rsk. My D can kick into high gear when the risk line becomes the king of the hill playground for profiles battling their POV. This is a spiral to nowhere in creating purpose for action. I call this dogs marking their territory. If we look at the DiSC it's a circle with all of the criteria for successful action. Why would i think that only the D part of the circle is what is needed? In leadership we need the whole circle brought to bare on the risk point. Why would i not bow to someone's gift of influence to speak of our plans? Those who believe their profile is all that is needed live in a very small world.

The experience is your own and that is what you are sharing here. "Your business is going through a rough patch and major change is needed. How do you introduce the change so each personality adds to the success of the change". I like the idea that we understand the DISC profiles of all people. But, the intriguing idea for me here is throwing purposefully the imbalance by increasing D on the expense of the "ISC" remaining parts. I really need to absorb fully this idea. Can D be an influencer as well? You make me think again.

I would like to claim the thoughts, but can not. I have been in the room where people have spoken and it seems that their communications was omni-behavioral (DiSC) in delivery. I have also been in rooms where the speaker spoke directly from their own behaviour (DiSC). Each had merits but the former was amazing what they did with their audience. I was hooked. It didn't help though that my Myers-Briggs personality Type INTJ is representative of a low percentage of the population. In my early years this manifested into "Doesn't play well with others." In business playing well with others is essential to success. So i had to learn quickly to overcome my very dominate D, Mine is 80%+. In leadership whether you are good or bad at it, you have to own the room when you walk in. You can talk down to all the other personality types by speaking from your own or you can be empathetic and learn the language of other personality types. Many folks understand this to mean i have to have multiple personality disorder to achieve this level of leadership. This is not true. Your business is going through a rough patch and major change is needed. How do you introduce the change so each personality adds to the success of the change. The change or message stays the same but we speak to the personality of the individual to gather their specific momentum from their natural skills. A High S can offer their inputs and suggestions on how to help insure a steadiness within the change paradigm, A High D can offer a front person to lead the charge, A high C can make sure that we are not leaving the reservation with unicorns and balloons. The High I is our spokesperson for the upcoming change.

You are not less so dear Tausif Mundrawala. I am happy to learn from you and all other writers who helped me write this buzz. SOmetimes when we get hurt we do better. Have you experienced this? The comments so far on this buzz shows us how much more we still need to know. The comments of Harvey Lloyd are stretching our minds into different directions. We are the bees now sailing on different direction for the sake of finding better understanding of the topics under discussion. It is so important for us to remember that we truly know little and that the use of I am sure should be practiced progressively less and less.

Even new ideas are opening up for you Harvey Lloyd. I am glad as you "troubled" my mind purposefully, so I am happy you are troubling your mind too. I expect new ideas and better ones to emerge. Keep pondering my friend.

I am sure you realize that you are opening a huge discussion with this comment Harvey Lloyd. You summed up your ideas beautifully in the last line of your comment "Momentum is gained by insuring that each profile heard their piece within the idea". Yes, nobody should be left out. I started to draw rough profiles in my mind and I visualize your point and its succinct relevance to the discussion.

I had hoped this afternoon the chance to work on delineating the creation we have come too. My verbal thoughts this morning are the tornados of thought in prototyping this concept. When we look at any POV we have to establish its origin, hence the profile. This is the easy part. Convincing the different personas to contribute to the risk point with their profile is the difficult part. Being totally off the cuff, D's want to shoot everything, I's want to meet and do power points, S's want to add stabilizers as the boat begins to rock and C's must have all facts and be factual. These are the extremes of the letters when focusing on heightened risk profiles where our instincts have kicked in. Leadership needs all of the mentioned perspectives focused on the placed risk point. Not arguing the positions of each letter against one another. I will vet this a little further, if time permits.

#12 If i might add to this comment and expand on "understanding human behaviour". I have spent a lifetime trying to understand human behaviour as it applies to leadership. I'm not a therapist. But the thought of walking into a room with merely an idea and think that others will follow didn't fair well. SO began to understand that in leadership people followed what "they" understood. Myers-Briggs and Disc offer us an opportunity to communicate more effectively in our leadership. By attempting to understand (empathy) others profiles we can learn their styles of communication and present our ideas more effectively. Our ideas as leaders may be great but without momentum from the team the idea will have a short life expectancy. Momentum is gained by insuring that each profile heard their piece within the idea.

I tell you with all honesty Harvey Lloyd that combining superimposing the DISC profile to the risk graph proved to be the main challenge in writing this post because of lack of data. Your further elaboration on this idea makes a great initiative. Would you be kind enough to draw the graph and I could incorporate it in the buzz to enhance our discussions, with all due credit to you? Honestly, these discussions are adding a complete visual perspective for leaders and managers. I am sure once we add the data points you suggest we shall have even more perspectives being able to see anomalies, extreme points and the the search for their root causes. The great suggestion to draw a graph with D and I as its Y and Z axises is deeply smart. The reasoning you give "The S and C are implied throughout the graph and the leader would need to insure that these variables, and the folks with this as their strong suite, be able to input" is worthy of deep consideration. You are giving a totally new approach to understanding and employing the DISC Profile Graph. So much to think about and the discovery journey has a new skin now.

Absolutely and you are correct Devesh \ud83d\udc1d Bhatt. Visuals align our thinking> We need more of them.

In the sense that negative comments means opposing comments with different perspectives is most welcome. People in one hive may share many similar views. It is the exposure to differing vies that create the real opportunities for merging the opposites into something new. I agree with you totally on this. if we "breathe" the same air we shall not have fresh ideas. It is as simple as this. I here refer to the comments of Harvey Lloyd that comments should serve the purpose of a discussion. This is the only alignment that is required. Thank you again for proving me with the opportunity to explain more.

Good point Debesh Choudhury. I concern here was to tell the "story" of how ideas developed. It is a brainstorming-like discussion and the ideas those discussions blossomed. But, you point is relevant.

First, I am deeply grateful to your formidable contribution to the discussion dear Yolanda \u00c1vila M\u00e1rquez. I felt the need to compile our discussions and the conclusions we arrived at. This buzz isn't mine; it is the outcome of combined minds working together towards a purpose of understanding human behavior.

This is what I call The "Comments Butterfly Effect". I wanted to show by example Claire L Cardwell what we can do if we respect each other how our minds intertwine to produce new ideas. The buzz discusses the use of an advanced "beBee Filtering System" to deal with irrelevant comments. Truly, they expanded my possibilities. This is what lasts at the end of the day. I understand better now and I feel more educated. I should be expecting the extremes. Just to show by example the difference between somebody on LI who read one of my buzzes only by his own words. He commented that all my posts are vacuous. In the other end, @Doan HeartBeats on LI shared one of my buzzes and commented by writing the following. "Ali Anani, PhD You deserve the mention and credits. Because of you my curious mind and heart has exponentially grown. You are a most gracious writer and you are most qualified to be one of the selected". In a subsequent comment he wrote "Ali Anani, PhD Some people can't appreciate (jealous? ) what you are sharing. You know in your heart that you have a positive impact. I understand that feedback can improve people's skills/ attitude. But don't let this person negatively influence your flow/ buzz in life. He is not worth your time (anymore). You are a great example and a true Linkedinfluencer. Your LinkedIn shares/ 'buzzes' and your kind/ graceful responses are very much appreciated". These comments place huge responsibility on me because I must keep the faith those people have in me; the risk is losing their faith if I don't. There is a latent risk even in compliments.
