The fight of the frames
The comply, success and moral frame are always competing so we should strive to keep them in balance. Please read the previous post about the three frames before you read this one. Depending on the situation, often one or two of the frames are dominant, and another is underrepresented or even out of the equation.…

Three frames
Different ‘frames’ influence how we look at what we do and what we think is good. Please read the previous post about Rosetta’s scripts before you read this one. To understand how the three scripts are either stimulated or downplayed in the setting of an organisation, and how they might influence perception of employees, it…

Rosetta: Three ways of looking at good
There are three ways of looking at ‘good’. It’s important to recognise which is dominant and which might need activation. In the year 1799, the army of Napoleon invades Egypt from the Mediterranean. How it happened exactly is not clear, but at some point, they stumbled upon an interesting looking stone. It turned out that…

Good is a fuzzy concept
Good can be seen in different ways and is therefore hard to recognise or discuss. This post is part of an introduction to the concept of Rosetta. One reason why discussion about what is right or wrong doesn’t always have the effect it deserves is that it is so hard to agree on what good…

Introducing Rosetta: Making good more doable by learning to recognise it
‘Good’ often doesn’t get the attention it deserves. This needs to change. The next couple of months (February – June), my posts will focus on learning to recognise opportunities to do good and avoid bad. To ‘make good more doable‘ (my mission), we should start by focusing our attention on what ‘good’ is, and in…

Regulation is in chaos
The amount of regulation is increasing and getting more complex and dynamic You could argue that the world as we see it is getting more complex every day. As a result of internationalisation and information technology we see more of the world every day, and every day we get more connected with it. This obviously…

Basic considerations
Asking the right questions on the moments that matter helps to make good more doable. Once we are aware of an opportunity to do good (see previous post), and we have the time to pursue this opportunity, we are ready to consider some key questions that can help us properly recognise good and move on…

Triggers for good
We should learn to recognise opportunities to do good If we truly want to be good, we should train ourselves to be triggered when there is opportunity to do good. If indeed, the pathway to good starts with our ability to recognise good, it is crucial that we are aware of the moments in our…

Good doubts
Doubting is essential to making good more doable It is easy to make the mistake of thinking that being good is all about knowing what is right or wrong. Indeed, it really helps to know this, but it is exponentially more important be able to find out what good is when it is not clear.…

A pathway to good
There is a logical process to being good This post follows up on the previous post Making good more doable let’s break down what steps it would take to ultimately be able to say we are good people. So, the endgame is to be good, but how can we become that? To become good, we…
