sent him a reply and asked for his thoughts on my post New Work. That said, I think there is a tendency to lean on the skills that we are good at and not use other approaches when they are called for. don’t think the new work is about tests. If we want to teach new work we should embed more in complexity theory.

Studies of Personal Information Management say that what works is often highly personal. While I use the words, "you should" … what I mean is that "you should consider and maybe try" … not necessarily "you should adopt" … What works for me, may or may not work for you. That's a real mistake.
