Listen now (23 min). Uncertainty is always seen as a bad thing — but there is a good, generative side to uncertainty. Uncertainty is an inescapable feature of innovation work, not a bug to be eliminated. But what makes uncertainty generative? This essay answers that question. I share three general design principles for infusing systems, environments, practices, organizations with generative uncertainty. Illustrated with examples from all over the place, from the Auvergnat low-intervention wine ecosystem, to regenerative population wheat farming in the UK, to an accidental retail innovation incubator in a crumbly shopping mall in Singapore.
