esNarratives

Narratives are the natural way we autonomous agents talk about out life, making a living. If narratives are not the stuff of science yet is

about our ever-changing livings, then science, not story, must change. ….

Inversion In today’s society, research, knowledge

productivity and management are no longer about what you want to know from people, but

what people want you to know

Value Narratives contain insights, values, ideas,

warnings, perspectives that are hardly accessible for organizations and society

Untapped value Narratives are omnipresent in

organisations, f.e. in open text fields of surveys.

In this presentation we will show how to put this often untapped resource to use for assessing and improving the

soft qualities of organizations and get a grip on the inherent uncertainty of

social (services) systems

Really? Can we do that?

Yes we can

Often lots of effort have been put in developing balanced and reliable surveys

Survey inversion reuses these efforts (and some existing narratives)

are Sharing & evaluation of meaning

Children/parents are elicited (quided asking) to share a specific story from all their experiences

and answer some questions about them

In your experience staff acted?Straight from the heart

Only using their brain Just their hands

So its not representative nor

validated in the classical sense

It’s ideal for early warning- and

improvements, but it ain’t the perfect

Observing patterns in the data, combining multiple data items and subsequently digging deeper into the stories and vice verse to develop competing hypothesis of what might

be going on is at the heart of catalysis

Once that is done, its the customers jobs to make sense, draw conclusions, design a set of interdependent

experiments, carry them out.

Meanwhile the “whole” process continues (and practice evolves) so that impact due to the experiments and/or

autonomous developments might co-occur and mingle.
