“Modern universities are full of people who postured with concepts. And yet, these are the people who have to change as the next wave of digitalization sweeps over us. I suspect it's not going to be an easy ride.” Deontic power meet digital economy. Fascinating.

If you were to re-title all of your organisation's "Our values" posters so that they better described what they actually were, what would you write? meaning.guide/index.php/2021…
