Hi. I'm Don Schmincke
How did I end up researching management theory failure rates, and transforming strategic planning and culture change?
No idea. As an MIT and Johns Hopkins researcher, the journey was nonlinear. I was nearly arrested as a capitalist spy in the Soviet Bloc, got shot off an aircraft carrier, survived in the Kurdish capital as Tehran held hostages, was the first white person allowed into an African Tsonga village, explored religious integration in Vietnamese mountain tribes, developed missile-guidance systems while my frat brothers took Vegas (later portrayed in the movie “21”), and was caught taking my kids to a North Korean DMZ minefield. (Bad dad!)
But my background in planetary physics, AI, biomedical engineering, helped me learn from many global expeditions to discover how humans group for work, play, reproduction, civilization, and war.
That's how we invented the winning formula system.
But I'm more interested in what you want.
