March issue "Transparency Transformation"

As part of our never-ending transformation, we need to talk about Transparency which implies openness, communication, and accountability, operating in a way that thoughts, feelings, or twinmotives are easily perceived and it is easy for others to see what actions are performed.

This open to all transparent thinking is a significant shift from our proprietary me thinking of yesteryear and is a big part of our process of Metamorphosing Me.  I find my younger mentors bring clarity to the meaning of Transparency as they ask why is that done that way? That does not make sense?

The answer often is because in the past we did not want to be transparent...Yikes!

That is a scary thought, but true, but achieving Transparency may even be scarier if we do not change the opaqueness of our mind set.

We need to listen to the people who are driving the digital metamorphosis that I have been ranting on about in my last few columns, giving it a Brain, Face, Body, and Voice.

The implication of transparency is that all of an organization’s actions should be scrupulous enough to bear public scrutiny. Increasingly, the nature of social media and other communications means that even actions intended to be secret may be brought into the publics' awareness, despite an organization's best efforts to keep them hidden.

More on Our Journey to Transparency in this review

I just wrote this blog bit Talking Transparency & Creating a Digital Twin - blog bit for https://nordicsmartbuilding.fi/blog/

https://nordicsmartbuilding.fi/smart-building-convention/talking-transparency/

Our event is rapidly approaching, I am extremely pleased to be a moderator and a media sponsor at the 2018 Nordic Smart Building Convention HELSINKI, JUNE 6TH & 7TH, 2018

The cross-pollination of this event on social media with global followers has provided a virtual connection to several European innovators, I believe that this is a harbinger of what the event will achieve.

The program is starting to evolve, panels discussions we must have are all being discussed and set as I write this blog.

I want to introduce two words that will find their way is to most of the discussions "Transparency" and creating a Digital "Twin"
