Elegant components

Part of the job is to break down complex problems and situations into their most elegant components.

It’s the beginning of communication – where you bring everyone to a common understanding of how the complicated things work, when you point out where Tab A fits neatly into Slot B, what their contribution to the effort should be, and how things will be different at the end.

It’s the beginning of solving conundrums – where you codify and categorise and corral all the moving parts, pinning down the certainties and holding the moving parts in plain sight.

It’s the beginning of progress – when you point your toes towards that point over there on the horizon, then put one foot in front of the other without getting distracted by all the things you might worry about but can’t control.
