This raises […]

Requisite Agility is a new and modern scientific and human-centric approach to making-sense of difficult challenges in complex human environments. It is an advanced conceptual system approach and set of practices to address and solve highly complex problems of value-creation and resource allocation that can bring about radical positive change, where demand tempos exceed enterprise integration tempos. It’s goal is to provide insight, structure and method to promoting healthy, adaptive, and effective organizations by enhancing the effectiveness of large-scale collaboration across multiple boundaries or ‘systems’ to successfully and profitably pursue, create and enhance the value consumers demand in what is an ever-emerging and always uncertain future.

In this series of blog posts I have tried to show throughout this essay that the postmodernist ideology is anti-philosophical and anti-human. Like most things that are mindlessly destructive, it can arise and lurk in dark corners where it hides out of sight.
One of the first American intellectuals to identify the destructive and nihilistic philosophic trend of what has morphed into postmodernism was the American philosopher and novelist Ayn Rand.
While the forces of conflict arising from minds returning to the Dark Ages are gathering, the challenges posed by the ideas and confusion of postmodernism are being addressed head on by enlightened people with minds committed to reason, logic, practical moral sense, and the recognition of the value of individual rights as the basis for a safe and flourishing society.
o ascribe to reason as a standard for pursuing desirable ends is taken by postmodernists as de facto evidence of one’s moral or ideological corruption.
Those who embrace the basic tenets of postmodernism possess a desire to both reject and accept logic at the same time. This blatant in-your-face contradiction and pretense is what makes postmodernism so confounding to understand, but also what makes it psychologically attractive to so many.
Postmodernism posits as a basic premise the rejection of reason as a Western superstition. It does not demonstrate that reason is akin to superstition, for the practical reason that an argument requires evidence or proof, and evidence and proof require an objective reality to establish evidential facts acquired from the foundational sensory evidence that forms the building blocks for the creation of higher-level concepts.
