Unleashing Parmenides
Catrin Rode knows why we often make lousy decisions - even when we think we are being rational. She knows that the human mind, as powerful and miraculous as it is, is often unable to simultaneously consider more than three options. That is why she was a principle consultant for a piece of software called Parmenides Eidos. Parmenides–if you are trying to remember–was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who is given credit for early conceptualizations of how people think and for developing systematic logic. Now it is a knock-your-socks-off solution for any organization serious about leading change.
This software is mind boggling. It is an extremely complex and powerful tool for organizations looking to do real heavy lifting in long term integrated strategic planning. Be careful if you ask me about it because chances are you’ll get a 30-minute rant about the profound potential of being able to dynamically map complex strategy that takes into account hundreds of interacting business variables. Half of the software experience is a product of Catrin’s expert guidance. It is like having a piece of architectural design software that could build a 100 story building or a sports arena–you still need an expert to guide you through the realities of design.
This software has previously been used behind the scenes in some of the world’s biggest companies. Now, the EASCI team is able to bring the remarkable power of Parmenides to our clients. It is flat out amazing. Go ahead, ask me about it–I dare you!
