Our Mission (M)Our Mission logos is three E's pointing incrementally toward our Vision, symbolizing the everyday work we do to "Engage, Educate, and Empower 7 Billion Systems Thinkers" to change the world for the better. When we align how we think with how the world works, thoughts that can change the world become possible. Engage means that we call people's attention to the research that indicates that thinking is the crux of all future success. Educate means we give them the tools to develop deep understanding. Empower means we ensure they can do it on their own, without us. We do our Mission everyday to bring about our Vision. |
Our Vision (V)Thinking is the foundation of all creative ideas and problem solving, new scientific discoveries, new products and services, individual and organizational learning, education, business success, interpersonal and intrapersonal communications, and even democracy itself. Groundbreaking new research developed at Cornell University into how we think and how to avoid thinking errors has revealed powerful new insights that can be taught to anyone, at any age. We are committed disseminating this research and to our audacious vision to create 7 Billion Systems Thinkers. Join us. |

We take Learning & Capacity Seriously. CRL's Capacital systems are functional (e.g., BuildTribe, BuildCred, GenRev, SysCap, etc). We develop Mission-critical capacity by working everyday to ensure that we have the right energy in the right place to serve our Mission everyday. W've developed a system of systems that are hyperfocused on Mission and Mission Moments. We are an agile, adaptive, learning organization. We build and evolve mental models. We know that thinking differently, is the crux of all individual and organizational learning and of insight, innovation, and invention. |
