Philosophy

The Rons management philosophy consists of the following axioms:

  1. The world is VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) and is in a polycrisis.
  2. Technological advancement and progress drive proliferation of objects and a world full of unpredictable, powerful entities that have their own agency.
  3. The belief in quick solutions and a psychological focus often lead to a disregard for risk.
  4. Organizations, teams, and people are robust and resistant to change.
  5. A better understanding of the world requires a multidisciplinary approach and a departure from linear thinking and a psychological bias.
  6. Objects are equal in agency and have both an external appearance and an internal, private, meaningful world.
  7. Resilience, corruption, lack of innovation and creativity, mismatch of values and behavior, ineffective coaching, poor change management, and low safety compliance are issues to be hacked.
  8. Therefore, to make a substantial difference and have true impact, often we have to ‘hack’, break and intervene invisibly or forcefully.

Hacking styles

…

White Hack:this is what most people consider as coaching, classic methods and dialogues, transparancy and monitoring in one on one conversations.

Grey Hack:   There is an assignment and transparency of goals, however there is a lack of consent with the subjects, so it is an undercover operation and the coach acts as a ‘fly on the wall’.

Black Hack:  No assignment, no consent; you can consider this in an activist way
