Personal Principles - evidence trumps experience - performance over perfection - responsibility – authority = scapegoat - emotions motivate; data doesn't

⚠️ Caution...this fact for #PiDay might blow your mind. ⚠️

I’m speaking on Demystifying Value at 12:30-12:50! Sign up to hear more about @sci_ba’s Value Concept model and distinguishing between stakeholder, business, and customer value.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin ?!

:)

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin ...?

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @benthompson Huh. On the list form tomorrow then.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@OutoftheBoxBA If the Dems stole the presidency why didn’t they alter the rest of the ballots to take the Senate too? Seems like quite shortsighted malfeasance to me.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @IIBA He will be missed. I think it is fair to say that IIBA would not exist without his dedication and effort.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@ivarjacobson I hope you all have the best luck and the best care, Ivar.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@ryanfolstersa All models are wrong; some are useful. I suspect the #VCM is both the least wrong and the most complete that a model of value can be. Other models discard necessary detail. They are simplistic and complicated. The VCM is simple and complex.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@ryanfolstersa What have you discovered so far?

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

Kevin has written a succinct summary of my simplified Value Concept Model (VCM). It’s worth a fast read - and a slow think. This model has profound explanatory power that you won’t grasp until you *practice* finding all the concepts to real situations.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin You should never have grown the goatee.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@deume @bakevin @BBCapability I'm no expert on Marx, but his theories on value do not fit the reality of how value is assessed.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @chris_analyst @BBCapability Consider that the ‘Person’ here is really the ‘evaluator’ - any entity capable of assigning a value to a thing in a context. For example, when a set of human biases and value judgements are embedded into an machine learning algorithm, the machine becomes the evaluator.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @chris_analyst @BBCapability “Other priorities” indeed. :) I’m glad to see this Value core concept model getting some airtime. It is applicable to any situation where an evaluation occurs - which is a lot broader than you might think at first glance.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @BBCapability I'm also thrilled to have @bakevin helping clarify value. It is such a pivotal concept, yet also a profoundly misunderstood idea.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @BBCapability I'm excited to hear how it is received. A core concept model that describes the act of evaluation is surprisingly powerful.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin @TECHNATIONca Congratulations, Kevin. Municipalities are in dire need of assistance! I’m glad you’re on the job.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

@bakevin I love you too, my friend. I wish we had more time.

[Julian Sammy @sci_ba]

I have bad news. The cancer has spread. I likely have weeks-to-months, but not more. The end might come suddenly.

The FB link and video will tell you more, as will my post today. It is what I know until the end of next week.

Be well.

Julian
