When Inexpert “Experts” Almost Overrule Real Experts
The tango Cambalache (written in 1934 by Enrique Santos Discépolo) famously claimed that “a donkey and a great professor are treated the same.” It described a social attitude that dismissed differences between knowledge and ignorance—an attitude that, disturbingly, feels very much alive today. It suggests that someone who does not know but believes they do is equivalent to someone who has studied deeply and therefore knows how much they still have to learn.
Read and hear here the complete commentary (around 500 words, about 4 minutes of reading/listening time).
Adaptive Humanism: Read our paper here, published by the Journal of Awareness-Based Systems Change. The paper focuses on how to transform limiting narratives into quantum narratives to co-create a new future.
Let's begin co-creating a new future!
Let's agree that we live at a time when the future is no longer a continuation of the past and, therefore, everything we know and everything we have is obsolete or it will soon be obsolete. For that reason, the only "thing" we can take into the new future is ourselves.
Our multidisciplinary approach (education, philosophy, humanities, spirituality), and our knowledge and experience in education and businesses, as well as our toolbox of techniques (Theory of U, photo-elicitation, guided self-discovery, and others) allows us to prepare minds and hearts, either individually or as a group, to become part of the new future, without forgetting about the past or neglecting the present.
We strive to create long-term, always evolving relationships with our customers. Those relationships are a key element of the business because our main service is to connect people with people in a meaningful and creative way, and that begins with our customers.

What do we bring to the conversation? An open mind, and open heart, and an open will (hands). (Theory of U: Awareness-based theory of change)
