Welcome Farmer Joe & in just two posts some interesting QONs, observations & dot joining you have already made...

To begin on your last post - I'm not sure because the image link appears broken - with reference to the ICCPM wankers, who have transmogrified relationships with Thales etc. Here is a copy of a page from their website on 'Strategy Visualisation'..

ICCPM's Strategy Visualisation

Here at ICCPM we have conducted a strategy visualisation process and have come up with our own visualisation (illustration) to help our staff, partners and network members to better understand where we are going and how we will get there. It is provided as one example.

The Future of ICCPM through Strategy Visualisation

The ICCPM Vision is ‘to be internationally recognised for, building capability in organisations to deal with complex environments’.  We will deliver this vision through Stakeholder Relationships, Thought Leadership, Education and Solution Services.

The metaphor that we have used as the underlying theme of our visualisation is a jigsaw puzzle.  Our visualisation reads from bottom to top. In the first instance we decided to depict what we as an organisation face when working with individuals and groups that are struggling firstly to recognise the complexity that they are working in and secondly the barriers that we see in their willingness to do anything about it.  You will see our interpretation of the current state in which folks are simply on “auto pilot” or on the hamster wheel of process that constantly delivers failed projects, or are open to the belief that someone else can do what they can’t (conspiracy of optimism), or they just want to check-out due to the level of uncertainty.

We then demonstrate that it is our intention to provide people with the puzzle pieces to complete the jigsaw by providing the education necessary to move from a negative perception of complexity through an educational transformation designed to change your mindset, way of thinking and way of working, to one that opens the world to opportunity and a level of comfort in dealing with complex issues.

Our new world demonstrates the connections globally between people and sectors who have all become more capable and comfortable in working with complexity and complex projects. We also demonstrate that the ‘messes’ or complex issues and problems don’t go away, but our level of comfort in recognising and addressing them has changed, and conceptually they have become a smaller version of the larger “Mess”, and that this can only be achieved by people, through communication and collaboration.  Ideally we would like to be the glue that holds it all together, and the catalyst for others to ultimately be successful.

Our logo has been submerged beneath the water to demonstrate our desire to be an enabler of success.  Bearing in mind that this visualisation is our internal view of how we will deliver our organisational strategy we would be very pleased to talk about it with anyone who is interested, take any suggestions that you might have, and work with you and your organisation to develop one of your own.


About the Artist: Introducing Kieron Pratt

Kieron Pratt is as colourful as his illustrations. He has a great sense of humour and is a ‘behind the scenes’ kind of person who would prefer to have his illustrations speak for him. Kieron was born in Melbourne and moved to Canberra in 1980 with his family and has been there ever since. He has always loved drawing since he was old enough to “eat his first red crayon”.

Before Kieron commenced our artwork I asked him to participate in our Systems Thinking and Complex Project Management three day workshop, it was not a test of his intestinal fortitude nor a social experiment to test the ability of the PMs in the room to cope with the widest angle diversity lens I could find, it was to help Kieron contextualise what we were hoping to achieve regarding thinking, behaving and working as part of a bigger, brighter system.  We believe that he got it!  Thank you Kieron, fantastic job my friend.

From that - as FJ points out - it now becomes obvious where those courage badges came from; & how the ASA marketing team came up with that comic - FFS (sorry Ferryman got to do it.. ):  

 You gotta wonder about this mob - & who is shagging who?? - when you see who they're partnered up with... Maybe the Senators can get it from the horses head...



..(err sorry mouth) when they get to question Sir Angus tomorrow evening...


...& when Sir A gives them a private briefing afterwards..

Extract from Hansard 07 Sept 2015:

Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport Legislation Committee—public meeting during the sitting of the Senate today, from 4 pm, to take evidence for the committee's inquiry into the provisions of the Shipping Legislation Amendment Bill 2015. public meeting, followed by a private briefing, during the sitting of the Senate on Wednesday, 9 September 2015, from 5 pm, to take evidence for the committee's inquiry into the performance of Airservices Australia.

 
As for your first post Farmer Joe...

"..But in all the probity questioning from AsA's special attendance 2 weeks ago, NX asked about a LAHSO incident at Melbourne Airport in early July.



Mr Hood replied that it was a serious incident and ATSB was investigating.



Yet a perusal of the ATSB list of investigations on their website shows no such incident.



Didn't this website (?P2) a while ago question whether ATSB was really investigating all incidents submitted by AsA?.."

 ..I think we should take that observation - & it's obvious implications - to the SMH thread under my last post relevant to this query of yours -  ATSB CP Bullocks - Spring cleaning whitewash.
