Doug Engelbart re: strategic pursuit

What is Collective IQ? According to the late Doug Engelbart, celebrated internet pioneer who coined the term, it’s a measure of how effective people are at addressing complex, urgent challenges collectively. As the rate and scale of challenges we face in the world increase exponentially, we must find exponentially smarter, faster ways of working together to solve important problems. In other words, we must boost our Collective IQ.

DEI_SanFran1968-cropDoug recognized this decades ago and developed a comprehensive strategic framework for pursuing this important goal. His own implementation of this framework in his historic research lab resulted in more breakthrough innovation than probably any lab before or since, and we are still seeing the ripple effect of his seminal work. However, the world has only scratched the surface of potential he envisioned, while the challenges we face today are more complex and urgent than ever. Learn more about his visionary work and the ongoing efforts of the Doug Engelbart Institute and others to advance the state of the art so that together we might reach our potential on a global scale.
