Syque (pronounced 'sike') is my knowledge sharing site. My purpose is to share knowledge and understanding on an unprecedented scale, adding real value for individuals and companies. Consider it as 'original books on the internet', with already over 7000 web pages of industrial-strength knowledge freely available.
The Syque sites are as follows:
ChangingMinds.org is already a huge site, with around 5000 pages on all subjects around how we change one another's minds. Including:
Disciplines: professions for changing minds.
Techniques: practical applied methods.
Principles: underlying ways that people change minds.
Explanations: why it works.
Theories: deep psychology.
CreatingMinds.org is a new site about creativity and innovation, with around 400 full-content pages. Including:
Tools: A huge toolbox of creative tools.
Quotes: Thousands of quotes on creative topics.
Principles: Principles of creativity.
Articles: More articles on creativity and creative organizations.
Quality Tools contains about 600 pages, mostly on the tools and techniques of quality and improvement, including the full text of a major book and ten-plus years of journal articles.
The Quality Toolbook: The full content of a 400+ page book.
Tools of the Trade: Over 60 articles from 10 years in Quality World.
Articles: Further articles about quality.
This is a long list of around 400 items, each with a page containing descriptions of tools and terms about improvement and quality, ranging from original Japanese terminology to Six Sigma frameworks.
The first book I wrote was called 'C: Style -- Standards and Guidelines' and was about how to write computer programs that people (including yourself) can understand. Although based in the C language, it covers many general principles. It is reproduced in its entirety here in about 200 hyperlinked pages.
And here are some thoughtful articles on assorted business topics, from innovation to branding.
And here are about 50 pages with small stories that I and others have written to help think, understand and explain.
This is Inspirational Teaching, a blog by my wife Eleri, who is one of those teachers you remember for life. Her goal is to get her students to love Shakespeare and English Literature for life. Oh, and along the way, they get remarkably good grades.
This is Heledd's site. Heledd is my daughter who started in art and ended in business. The site's not new now, but it still includes over 650 pages from her Master's degree course in International Management.
Enjoy.
