Actual chaos
It’s the end of the meeting. Lots of energy, lots of positives. What we decided today means plenty to us and plenty to plenty of others…

Either way, and even if it was meant as a friendly joke, not a good review and not a comfortable place. Especially for everyone who’s natural place is anywhere other than the right-brain extreme of the organised-chaos spectrum (everyone?) and who’re are struggling with the lack of structure, decision-making bottlenecks, random processes and the feast and famine of crazy-busy and hanging-around.
