Understanding Works

Alongside my consultancy work at beconpe Consulting, Understanding Works is my space for thinking about decisions in public: how they come about, what they hinge on and why they often land differently than intended.

It is a deliberate choice that this thinking currently happens mainly on Instagram. For many people, social media has become a central source of information. It is here that you see how much our information environment is steered, how drastically complex issues are (and have to be) condensed, how quickly they become open to attack and how little room is left for knowledge-based debate, especially on social, political and scientific questions.

For anyone who wants to know how I think, the channel is also a window into my work. Out of these observations, tools that help with decision-making are gradually taking shape.
