This particular matrix has been created by Dilip Mukerjea in his book, 'Brain Symphony: Brain-blazing Practical Techniques in Creativity for Immediate Application'.
He poses this pertinent question to readers:
Where do you position yourself on the matrix?
The answer you have in your mind will serve as an interesting perspective of your future orientation.
I have in fact mentioned to Dilip that his matrix reminded me of an almost similar matrix, but with a twist, from futurist Joel Arthur Barker in his debut book during the mid-eighties, entitled 'Discovering the Future: The Business of Paradigms'.
Using Dilip's matrix as a reference, just replace:
- "Metagrobolised" with "Problem Solving";
- "Masterful" with "Opportunity Finding";
- "Moronic" with "Reaction";
- "Mastermind" with "Anticipation";
& you have Joel Arthur Barker's original matrix.
In a nutshell, & according to Joel Arthur Barker, in order to anticipate - & shape - our future, we need to head in the direction of "Matchless", just as Dilip has originally envisaged.
