Collaborative
- The starting premise is that - as spoken about open source software - with enough eyeballs on a problem - any bug is shallow
- We believe that true collaboration means that we need to work less to get better results. If it takes as long or longer, and the results are not improved - that is not a good example of true collaboration.
- Collaborative Literacy includes both the mindset and the skill set to cooperate.
- Collaborative means sharing. Sharing means Sharing in the economic sense.
Transparent
- Transparency is related to rapid learning, and everyone having an opportunity to learn and grow so that the playing field is more even
- Open source
- Publish early and often
- Self-esteem and a Growth Mindset is required to publish early and often
Inclusive
- Includes all people
- Includes nature - thus a central theme of OSE work is ecological regeneration
- Eco means that we are not wasteful
Abundance
- Abundance is not essentially a physical state - it is essentially a mental state.
- Abundance is more than prosperity. It is a Growth Mindset.
- In designing products, abundance implies modular design - such as Incremental Housing or Incremental Tractors - and a Construction Set Approach.
- To have abundance, we must be generous. The world has enough for everyone's needs, but not everyone's greed - Gandhi. The world has enough for everybody's need - but not enough - even for a single person's greed.
- To have abundance, we cannot be wasteful. Abundance relies on wise stewardship of resources.
- Abundance includes low cost, because this lowers barriers to entry
