Perhaps with different conceptions of governing (decision making) we can do less force fitting of people to structures and more design of conversational and decision making structures to fit people—particular people, in particular places, and particular situations.

This fitting of structures to particularities of decisions is what Ostrom termed polycentric governance. We should every day ask which group or coalition of groups is capable of crafting the best approach to every problem. We must stop dropping problems into incapable slots in fossilized governments. Design government daily to fit the problems at hand base upon the needs of all stakeholders. Change language from "government" into "governing".

Buckminster Fuller quote on creating a new system.... ?Why is this necessary? Ideas...what drives fossilization:- Size Hierarchies Habits Command and Control - Processes - Compliance culture (vs learning culture) Multiple strong reinforcing loops "Use it or lose it" - if we don't constantly change we become unable to change. Loss of agility. "Machine" model for the system
