Ecocycle-2012

Ecocycle-2012 Quick Reference Card

in 2012, David Hurst presents a variation of the ecocycle
we presume the reader is already familiar with the ecocycle_93

innovators are free to act, but are not sure yet of what to do
Administrators know exactly what to do, but there is no room to manoever
In between , Managers know what to do to grow from birth to maturity
and Leaders are free to create a new visions, by releasing what is not relevant anymore.

The first context is about trust, the middle one about logic, the last one about Power

Innovators may fail the right choices to gather a community , and turn an idea into a successful entrepreneurship ( Formerly : poverty/ scarcity trap )
Excess of conservatism leads to a crisis, and the confusion to release the old patterns ( Formerly : Rigidity trap)
In between is the sweet spot from Birth to Growth (Front loop) – and the re-foundation and trans-formation (Back Loop)

The front loop focuses on means, and People are a means to an end,
Then back loop focuses on Ends, and People are an end in itself.
