1820 - Summary/Objective
1821 -
182101 - Follow up ref SDS 20 0000, ref SDS 19 6O5I.
182102 -
182103 - Millie wrote a letter today asking about risks to CSG from showing
182104 - plans on the Internet for an SDS project, which was evident from a
182105 - letter this morning to person who wrote asking about purchasing SDS,
182106 - based on seeing SDS records on the Internet. ref SDS 20 M95N
182107 -
182108 -     [On 030730 Jerry Nord reported investigating found no risk to CSG
182109 -     interests from discussions to form an Agreement on using and
182110 -     developing improvements and marketing SDS to help people save time
182111 -     and money. ref SDS 21 4U8J
182113 -  ..
182114 - Wrote a letter to Millie on balancing costs of public disclosure
182115 - (i.e., risk of revealing sensitive information), against benefits of
182116 - public disclosure showing SDS enables doing a better job, and
182117 - providing useful "intelligence" anytime, anywhere on the Internet to
182118 - help people solve daily problems, as planned on 030530, ref SDS 14
182119 - R64F, and earlier on 000802. ref SDS 9 4800
182121 -  ..
182122 - Specifically the letter to Millie says....
182123 -
182124 -    1.  Mil,
182126 -         ..
182127 -        Good point in your letter today -- a copy went to Jerry so he
182128 -        can comment if important CSG interests are at risk.  In that
182129 -        case, we can suppress sensitive information.  You might notice
182130 -        that Carlos' name is suppressed because experience has shown
182131 -        that until people gain experience with the record, there can be
182132 -        initial feelings that privacy has been breached by having names
182133 -        appear on the Internet.
182134 -
182136 -         ..
182137 -        SDS Records on Internet Advertise SDS, Attract Customers
182138 -
182139 -
182140 -    2.  You may have noted that the record today cites planning on
182141 -        000802 to use SDS records on the Internet to demonstrate (i.e.,
182142 -        advertise) that people can improve their work, and therefore
182143 -        productivity and earnings, by using SDS records.  If all you
182144 -        can say is that "SDS works better," most customers now days are
182145 -        skeptical.  They don't know the difference between information
182146 -        and knowledge, but they "know" that just saying "SDS converts
182147 -        information into knowledge," "Don't make it so!!!" - as they
182148 -        say in Missouri, and as explained on 900303. ref SDS 1 7739
182149 -        People feel converting information into knowledge sounds
182150 -        incredible, unbelievable, futuristic, as related at Intel on
182151 -        960315, ref SDS 3 4545, and so customers say....
182153 -             ..
182154 -        a.  "Gosh, I don't get it!
182156 -             ..
182157 -        b.  What does working "intelligently" mean that is different
182158 -            from what I am doing?  That sounds insulting?  I know you
182159 -            spell all this out in the Typical Day Scenario (TDS),
182160 -            ref OF 8 0001, but I don't have time to read that because
182161 -            I'm busy with email, wordprocessing, attending meetings and
182162 -            making calls to fix problems all day.
182164 -             ..
182165 -        c.  Why is SDS better than email, wordprocessing, going to
182166 -            meetings, and talking on the cell phone?"
182168 -         ..
182169 -    3.  SDS records deliver "intelligence" anytime, anywhere on the
182170 -        Internet enabling people to experience some aspects of using
182171 -        SDS, which is the only way people can come to say...
182173 -             ..
182174 -        a.  "Oh!  I think I get it!   Intellegence means connecting
182175 -            things up so we understand cause and effect that enables
182176 -            better work, illustrated somewhat by the recent record on
182177 -            030722. ref SDS 18 SC46
182179 -             ..
182180 -        b.  SDS empowers people to regularly create a connected web of
182181 -            "intelligence" which cannot be done with other tools.
182182 -            Pretty neat!!  (see on 981104, ref SDS 5 4320)  Pretty
182183 -            cool way of doing things!!! (see on 981106, ref SDS 6
182184 -            2070)  Looks like "intelligence" is more valuable than
182185 -            information.  I might be willing to pay for that added
182186 -            value.
182188 -             ..
182189 -        c.  How much does it cost?  What are the license requirements?"
182190 -            (see another record today, ref SDS 20 M95N)
182192 -         ..
182193 -    4.  So, the more records we put on the web showing people can do a
182194 -        better job day-in and day-out, not just when advertisers are
182195 -        paid $1M to make slick looking mock-up records, but real daily
182196 -        tasks that people can see relate to their lives, shown by the
182197 -        list of examples on 020708, ref SDS 10 MZ6O, then more people
182198 -        believe that SDS works better than other methods, and in some
182199 -        cases this belief attracts potential customers, as it did with
182200 -        Gary, Jerry Nord and possibly today with Carlos, and as
182201 -        planned on 000802. ref SDS 9 4800  Recent experience on 030530
182202 -        yielded analysis showing that since SDS records seem to be
182203 -        listed at the top of any search on the Interent where a subject
182204 -        is discussed, this provides opportunity to give customers
182205 -        advertising visibility. ref SDS 14 R64F
182206 -
182207 -            [On 030807 Jerry Nord reports doing research on revenue
182208 -            potential using SDS records on the Internet for advertising
182209 -            because SDS records list at the top of searches on the
182210 -            Internet. ref SDS 23 SB9G
182212 -         ..
182213 -        Confidentiality is an important objective that is balanced by
182214 -        benefits of better productivity, earnings and saving lives,
182215 -        which are also important objectives, reported on 030528.
182216 -        ref SDS 13 0150
182218 -         ..
182219 -    5.  Again, just musing.
182221 -         ..
182222 -        You make a good point; will see what Jerry has to say.
182224 -         ..

250906 - Follow up ref SDS 17 WG54.
250907 -
250908 - In an earlier letter to Gary, made a similar point about
250909 - marketing approach for selling SDS.....
250910 -
250911 -    1.  Gary,
250913 -         ..
250914 -        Following up on your letter dated 030712 -- good analysis of
250915 -        questions raised by KM experts worrying there isn't enough time
250916 -        for capturing organizational memory in order to remember
250917 -        accurately that saves time and money, where you note good
250918 -        management will never be as fast and easy as bad management
250919 -        because bad management requires doing nothing, as explained in
250920 -        POIMS. ref OF 2 MQ6J
250922 -         ..
250923 -    2.  Email is a "killer" application because it provides a seemingly
250924 -        "free" tool that is fast and easy for making endless mistakes
250925 -        that "kill" productivity, earnings and stock prices, by
250926 -        reacting in the moment, as I am doing now.  In this case, there
250927 -        is no value at risk, so indulging "feel good" management
250928 -        (described by Morris on 911123, ref SDS 2 1331) is adequate
250929 -        under the common rule: "no harm no foul."
250930 -
250931 -            [On 030804 Gary demonstrated SDS to Nancy is developing a
250932 -            letter to follow up. ref SDS 22 OH6J
250934 -         ..
250935 -    3.  Since we are selling "intelligence" support, explained in
250936 -        POIMS, ref OF 5 6649, (and discussed in the letter above,
250937 -        ref SDS 0 UL87), the core question is whether business is
250938 -        evolving toward a requirement to work "intelligently," which,
250939 -        up until now, has been missing for reasons set out in NWO.
250940 -        ref OF 9 4099  We see glimpses and wispers that people are
250941 -        beginning to...
250942 -
250943 -                              "Get it!!"
250944 -
250945 -        ...that change is essential to meet new realities of a faster
250946 -        paced world, and SDS supports transformation from IT to a
250947 -        culture of knowledge.  Nancy's letter on 030702 noting the need
250948 -        for a professional "scribe" to capture the record of
250949 -        organizational memory for meetings takes a small step in this
250950 -        direction, ref SDS 16 1D46, cited in the letter to you on
250951 -        030715 discussing plans for a "second act" by meeting with
250952 -        Nancy to demonstrate the flexible structure of SDS makes the
250953 -        work of the scribe faster, cheaper and more useful for working
250954 -        "intelligently" in order to accomplish CFISR. ref SDS 17 WH68
250955 -        The demonstration can show how the "better memory" that Nancy
250956 -        noticed on 030702, ref SDS 16 IX8L, and how better
250957 -        understanding Dave Knoll reported on 030527, ref SDS 12 0001,
250958 -        are is accomplished by the flexible structure of Knowledge
250959 -        Space, and so distributing "intelligence" is more productive
250960 -        than sending out information technology, which Nancy requested
250961 -        on 030626. ref SDS 15 ZG51
250962 -
250963 -           [On 030804 Gary reports SDS demonstration was accomplished
250964 -           for Nancy. ref SDS 22 QU6I
250966 -         ..
250967 -    4.  A second question is whether a marketing channel can be
250968 -        developed that enables people and organizations to save time
250969 -        and money for improving productivity, earnings and stock prices
250970 -        without everybody having to use SDS.  In the beginning, the
250971 -        effort to learn and use SDS for performing a new way of working
250972 -        takes time, like the gradual transformation to complement
250973 -        orality with literacy, reported on 991108. ref SDS 7 2277
250974 -        Since we are forming a stronger use of literacy for working
250975 -        "intelligently" a similar transformation from information
250976 -        technology (IT) to a culture of knowledge should be expected,
250977 -        noted by Professor Ransdell, who on 000716 encouraged patience
250978 -        to sustain a difficult, but important journey. ref SDS 8 7838
250979 -        Experience with alphabet technology shows that changing
250980 -        foundational tools for learning and communicating is not suited
250981 -        for everyone, noted by Grove at Intel, reviewed on 980307,
250982 -        ref SDS 4 1657, which manifests the rule in NWO that "the human
250983 -        mind is building a world for which it is not well suited."
250984 -        ref OF 10 2082  This second issue is addressed by the 3-layer
250985 -        architecture that empowers many to improve by re-tooling the
250986 -        skills of only a few, as you are doing at Aerospace company, implementing
250987 -        planning on 020820. ref SDS 11 0001
250989 -         ..
250990 -    5.  Don't know if we can pull it off, but that is our operating
250991 -        theory of transformation following the model for doctors,
250992 -        lawyers, accountants, etc, i.e., we need a new professional
250993 -        role for adding "intelligence" to management.
