Rumbling on performativity_Frits Simon

wisdom should be approached as the phronesis of people in their everyday life, not as
the abstracted blueprint of strategy-maps, corporate mission or vision.
In the same way through the discussions in the think-tank, with the members of the
board and with all of them together I learned that a CMS-perspective easily leads to a
sort of paranoid idea of being controlled and manipulated. As if managers or members
of a board in essence are extremely busy and competent with manipulating other people
for the greater sake of the organization. The discussions about dissent clarified
that every participant is searching and trying to find answers. That power is immanent
in the micro-politics of the situation is evident, however not as the one-sided, top
down and manipulative perspective as proclaimed by CMS. If I learned something from
the discussions I learned that we are all just ordinary people.
