Human Ecosystems

A local government unit — like a urban planning department or police department — is part of that city or county ‘strategic management platform’. There’s operations, and then there’s all the strategic challenges and public demands that put a load on local government operations. The White House is the national strategic management platform.

The US Human Ecosystem — or United States of America — can be imagined as one giant collective of all the states and then the municipalities within those states. Instead of whether or not a governor or state legislature will recognize StratGen, StratGen simply reaches out to individual leaders and their key stakeholder with the SI 2 Lab.

SI 2 Lab Big Purpose

SI 2 Lab members cope, coordinate, and maneuver together… supported with the leadership possibilities of the StratGen Strategic Innovation 2.0 Platform (SI 2). We mix up the best tools in strategy and innovation; confront challenges, develop solutions, and dissect outcomes… and become Strategy Innovators exploiting practices of high performing leaders and organizations like Open Innovation.

Strategic Innovation is what Apple did to become the first multi-trillion dollar corporation. NASA mixed strategy and innovation differently to visit the moon and become a platform leader in the science and technology innovation ecosystem. That’s Strategic Innovation 1.0. 

Now we need to reapply big ideas about strategy and innovation issues with new purpose; because we have the right space to maneuver and do new: the SI 2 Lab. That’s Strategic Innovation 2.0. The SI 2 Lab is the first Human Ecosystem dedicated to establishing resilience and then sustainability where we live: Our Municipalities.
