Whom did Bush consult before going to
war?
05/01/2004 04:46 AMMATTHEWS: Mr.
Secretary, let me ask you about the war in Iraq and the boldest
question I could put to you here in the Pentagon. Did you ever advise
the president to go to war?
[...]
RUMSFELD: You ought to get a life. You could do something besides
read those books.
MATTHEWS: This is my life. Let me ask you about something a little
more...
RUMSFELD: Let me answer your question.
MATTHEWS: Did you advise the president to go to war?
RUMSFELD: Yes. He did not ask me, is the question. And to my
knowledge, there are a number of people he did not
ask.
Woodward said he found that the
administration quietly shifted money around to pay for early
preparations for war in Iraq, without the approval of Congress. He
said those preparations included building landing strips and
addressing other military needs in Kuwait.
The money, about $700 million, was taken in July 2002 from a budget
item that had been approved for the war in Afghanistan, Woodward
wrote.
"Some people are going to look at that document called the
Constitution, which says that no money will be drawn from the Treasury
unless appropriated by Congress," Woodward says in his CBS
interview.
Does this mean that the President didn't
consult the Secretary of State or the Secretary of Defense or Congress
on the decision to go to war?
It
appears he did consult God.
I'm in Europe so I have no idea how much coverage this is getting
in the US, but isn't this an important issue?

Padilla entitled to consult attorney.
Really.
03/12/2003 06:08 AMUS District Judge Michael B. Mukasey, in a funny 37 page decision
devoted mainly to rebuking the government lawyers for their
tendentiousness, delaying tactics, and "arguments permeated with the
pinched legalism one usually encounters with non-lawyers," concludes
by saying in effect, "I said you have to let Jose Padilla see his
attorney, now let him see his attorney." I'm sure the government will
appeal, and American citizen (and suspected terrorist) Jose Padilla
will spend more time in jail without access to an attorney. He has
spent 340 days there so far. See the Charge Padilla! website for a
chronology of the case....

06/30/2004 02:16 PMWhen I was nine years old I changed schools. In my old school kids
picked on my classmates and me because we spoke French; in my new
school kids picked on my classmates and me because we were "gifted."
So, I pretty much felt at home right away. Like most
nine-year-olds, peeing wasn't something I devoted a lot of thought to.
I had avoided wetting my pants for a dog's age, and the issue simply
didn't warrant much consideration beyond that. Over the years my
shooting accuracy improved somewhat, but the basic mechanics had
already been mastered. Peeing was old hat. Until.

Will That Be Coordination, Cooperation,
or Collaboration?
Will That Be Coordination, Cooperation,
or Collaboration?
03/25/2005 06:39 PM
The Idea: Three Words:
Coordination, Cooperation, and Collaboration, are often used
interchangeably. They shouldn't be.
Recently I specified<
/a>
the requirements for collaboration:
Collaboration entails finding
the right group of people (skills, personalities, knowledge,
work-styles, and chemistry), ensuring they share commitment to the
collaboration task at hand, and providing them with an environment,
tools, knowledge, training, process and facilitation to ensure they
work together effectively
but I didn't define the term.
The term is being cheapened ("collaboration tools", "collaborative
environments") to the point where in many people's minds it's
indistinguishable from cooperation
and coordination, which are
less elaborate and less ambitious collective undertakings.
How can we differentiate between these terms in a meaningful way? Here
are a few ways that I think they differ:
|
Coordination
|
Cooperation
|
Collaboration
|
Preconditions for Success
("Must-Haves")
|
Shared
objectives; Need for more than one person to be involved;
Understanding of who needs to do what by when
|
Shared
objectives; Need for more than one person to be involved; Mutual trust
and respect; Acknowledgment of mutual benefit of working together
|
Shared
objectives; Sense
of urgency and commitment; Dynamic process; Sense of belonging; Open
communication; Mutual trust and respect; Complementary, diverse skills
and knowledge; Intellectual agility
|
Enablers (Additional "Nice to
Haves")
|
Appropriate tools (see below); Problem resolution
mechanism
|
Frequent consultation and knowledge-sharing between
participants; Clear role definitions; Appropriate tools (see
below)
|
Right
mix of people; Collaboration skills and practice collaborating; Good
facilitator(s); Collaborative 'Four Practices' mindset and other
appropriate tools (see below)
|
Purpose of Using This
Approach
|
Avoid
gaps &
overlap in individuals' assigned work
|
Obtain
mutual
benefit by sharing or partitioning work
|
Achieve
collective results that the participants would be incapable of
accomplishing working alone
|
Desired Outcome
|
Efficiently-achieved results meeting objectives
|
Same as
for Coordination, plus savings in time and cost
|
Same as
for Cooperation, plus innovative, extraordinary, breakthrough results,
and collective 'we did
that!' accomplishment
|
Optimal Application
|
Harmonizing tasks, roles and schedules in simple environments and systems
|
Solving
problems in complicated
environments and systems
|
Enabling the emergence of understanding and
realization of shared visions in complex environments and systems
|
Examples
|
Project
to implement off-the-shelf IT application; Traffic flow regulation
|
Marriage; Operating a local community-owned utility
or grain elevator; Coping with an epidemic or catastrophe
|
Brainstorming to discover a dramatically better way
to do something; Jazz or theatrical improvisation; Co-creation
|
Appropriate Tools
|
Project
management tools with schedules, roles, critical path (CPM), PERT and
GANTT charts; "who will do what by when" action lists
|
Systems
thinking; Analytical tools (root cause analysis etc.)
|
Appreciative inquiry; Open Space meeting protocols;
Four Practices; Conversations; Stories
|
Degree of interdependence in
designing the effort's work-products (and need for physical
co-location of participants)
|
Minimal
|
Considerable
|
Substantial
|
Degree of individual latitude in
carrying out the agreed-upon design
|
Minimal
|
Considerable
|
Substantial
|
Where do teams, partnerships, think-tanks, open-source and joint
ventures fit in this
schema? The general definition
of a team is an interdependent group, which suggests that
collaborative
groups are teams, coordinated groups are not, and cooperative groups
may or may not be. Partnerships and joint ventures are both, I would
argue, primarily cooperative undertakings, whose objectives evolve
over
time. Open-source developments can run the gamut among all three types
of undertaking. So theoretically can think-tanks, though in reality
most think-tank work is solitary and not really collaborative. Even
the
work of scientists on major international projects is, I am told,
substantially individual, with a lot more coordination and cooperation
than true
collaboration.
The last two rows of the above chart may seem somewhat paradoxical. It
is relatively easy to coordinate the activities of a 'virtual' group
that must work remotely and asynchronously, and much harder (but not
impossible) to achieve virtual collaboration, especially if the
collaborators already know each other. But once the 'design' of the
collective work-product is done, the implementation work of a
coordinated group is usually very explicit, while the implementation
work of collaborators is necessarily more improvisational.
So what? Well, in many cases, collective work may be dysfunctional
because it is organized as one of these types of undertaking when what
is needed is another type. Or, based on a misunderstanding of the
nature of the collective effort, the wrong resources and tools are
provided, or the preconditions for success are not met. And
collaboration is not always a better approach than coordination or
cooperation. In situations where the Wisdom of
Crowds
is valuable (prediction, optimization and coordination problems),
independence of 'crowd' members is essential, and cooperative or
collaborative processes can lead to 'groupthink' and actually detract
from the crowd's 'wisdom'. There is nothing more frustrating than
being
invited into a supposedly empowered, collaborative team and then being
charged with a task that needs nothing more than a good project
coordinator.
It all comes down to what you are trying to accomplish. The 'Purpose
of
Using This Approach" row of this chart is therefore perhaps the most
important. A hammer, a wrench and a screwdriver are not
interchangeable
tools, and none is best for all situations.
