X : I'm not afraid of the virus.
Me : It's a virus. There is little point being afraid, just take precautions.
X : I'm not wearing a face mask.
Me : Face masks aren't about protecting you, they're about protecting others. You want to kill others for the sake of seeming macho?
X : I'm not killing others.
Me : Macho, macho man ... I wanna be a macho man ... macho, macho man ... stop that dancing you sissy boy.
X : Sod off.
Me : Wear a face mask. Protect others. Be human for once. Yo! Hot Damn! What a fabulous window treatment -
That's me gone for the evening ... the wonderful music of Gloria Gaynor -

X : You're not a fan of the BBC?
Me : Today Programme, PM, World at One, Archers ... avid fan.
X : That's radio 4. TV?
Me : Given up. Occasionally the BBC website but I'm losing faith with it quickly. Basically, R4 or I don't care.
X : Do you not watch TV?
Me : Of course, Netflix and Amazon. I also use lots of websites for news. I just don't trust the BBC beyond R4. I've lost faith and I no longer care.
Me : Of course, I would miss the occasional clip I see on youtube etc. But that's about it. Now, losing R4 that would be a major blow .... you are talking civil unrest etc.

Me : Like quite a few execs, you suffer from imposter syndrome.
X : No I don't. I know what I'm doing.
Me : No, I don't mean in that sense. I mean it in the sense that you're an imposter. You haven't got a clue what you're doing. That's ok though, it's quite common.
X : I do know what I'm doing.
Me :, That's why it's a syndrome. You're not trying to deceive others, you just lack the capability to do wha you are supposed to be doing. Don't worry, it's very common.
X : A Napoleon complex?
Me : No, not that. And you're not Napoleon either.
X : Caesar?
Me : No, but this constant comparison to great historical leaders is definitely pointing in the right direction.
X : Well, I wouldn't have this position if I wasn't capable.
Me : Are the ideas of a meritocracy where you've earned the right.
X : Yes
Me : Hmmm.

X : Have you thought about using this as your x-axis?
Me : The x-axis on the map was built over 6 months on the back of analysis of about 9,221 publications and testing against a huge number of activities. I suspect this maybe why it has stood the test of time so far.
Me : Of course, those labels are just labels for the different stages of evolution. It really should be I, II, III, IV but that's meaningless ... so I used labels from the publications and you can mix a match any of these.
Me : Hence when I do my culture stuff, I use a different set of labels for the same stages i.e. physical activities, practices, data, knowledge and any form of capital under competition evolves.
