Agents1. Collaboration—The quality of artefact flows between
agents defines the potential for collective intelligence and stupidity.
2. Neurodiversity—Differences in cognitive lenses and learning styles define the creative potential and limitations of an organisation.
3. Learning—A trusted and supportive environment allows agents to learn and to create new knowledge; a competitive environment leads to corrupt knowledge and behaviour.
4. Complementary strengths—Allow complex problems to be tackled in a scalable manner via a multi-disciplinary and modular approach; a lack of deep domain knowledge limits an organisation to the provision of trivial services.

Purpose1. Economic sectors—Provide context for the purpose
of individual and organisational behaviour.
2. Applications—Are translations of knowledge into useful services.
3. Space, time, and scale—Are the sources of intrinsic variations in purpose.
- Spacial context may dictate constraints
- New knowledge is created and old knowledge is forgotten over time
- Scale may dictate constraints
4. Culture—Is a source of local variation in individual and organisational behaviour, influencing the way in which purpose is framed.

Learning
1. Questions—Sharing of questions enables the search for answers to be scaled and delegated to those with the deepest domain specific knowledge.
2. Variability—Valuable knowledge is created by uncovering the sources of variability.
3. Knowledge—Valuable knowledge is created by connecting the dots between different dimensions of knowledge.
4. Communication—Flow of artefacts via a common semantic knowledge sharing pattern between trusted agents allows the scaling of knowledge validation and learning.

Culture independent dimensions of progress

The human perspective and cultural context …
… heavily influences all other dimensions of progress • Value judgements relate to specific behaviours that occur in life • Very few values are consistent across
all major religions and philosophical systems • Most values reflect a specific cultural point of view

Stepping outside the box of cultural perspective
The anthropological perspective: • Cultural diversity is a form of biodiversity • All cross-cultural values are important and lead to universally
understood metrics • Respect for cultural diversity is a good foundation for progress • Using physical/psychological/economic force to suppress
cultural diversity to increase the number of cross-cultural values is a really bad idea – usually with huge negative impact on the culture independent dimensions of progress
