A dynamical system with with the ability to learn and adapt to its environment or to change it will need at most these three mechanisms:

1️⃣ The immediate control () of state variables essential for preserving the stability or of the system. This is a simple of the system to a perturbance, like, for example, sweating when the core temperature of the body increases beyond some preset margin.

2️⃣ The control of the surrounding environment is used when 1️⃣ is overwhelmed and there is a need for the coordinated engagement of different lower-level regulators, the (tracking), and negative control of multiple time-dependent variables like for example, when taking off layers of clothes, moving the body into a shade, or taking a cold shower until the temperature gets again within limits.

3️⃣ The , long-term, open-loop control with delayed feedback is the highest form of control, like for example when building a house with an HVAC system that will remove the necessity for a continuous employment of proximal control (2️⃣) by creating a private controlled environment.

All systems feature this 3-layered control architecture, with the only difference being in what degree the activities on each level are the result of deliberation as opposed to a natural, innate behavior.

Some pretty obvious and standard things are described here as novelties:

Basically:

1️⃣ exist because they have ,
2️⃣ Leaders are here to provide within the and "hierarchy"
3️⃣ All is personal and beneficial only to the measurer
4️⃣ The "hated" organizations are connecting silos
5️⃣ Removing what is determines what IS (the cone of possibilities)
6️⃣ Groups of people will form systems that cannot be engineered but can only be maintained as a "garden"
7️⃣ feedback is the only useful . A "pat on the back" never helped anyone. 😀

Also, this is all set backward:

> How can we ensure there are useful leadership Artefacts (tools, processes) and leadership Heuristics (rules of thumb, ways of doing things) - as well as Skills, Experiences and (of course) Natural talent.

I understand that as a consultant you have the "urge" to sell something tangible (a product) but you always have to start with the and their experience, skills, and natural talent, then identify the , what they do, and how are they connected (collaborate). Selecting the (tools, SW, forms, space, facilities) that will support that is the last and the least important thing.

Btw, a process is not an (product). Only the "rule book" that describes the process is, and there is a huge difference between the two.
