Regarding flexibility, science and technology are evolving rapidly, which means new processes, equipment, and requirements.
Psychological models demonstrate that true intimate relationships, those that bring people together with true and congruent openness only happen when each comes with humility.Stripping away their ranking stripes, whether in seniority, expertise, age, number of years’ experience and background; is pre-requisite.
When this happens the magic of creativity and the art of the possible thrive.It’s a tough thing to do, we all wear our own symbolic robes and masks, those which we hope will keep us safe by hiding our true selves.The more we can divest of these, the better we can work together.. My thinking took this metaphor a stage further.
While we are stripping things down, let’s tear down the importance we place upon the physical.While there is undoubted value in the aesthetic and power in iconic objects and structures, in the end true value comes from the people within.
We can become obsessed by the physical, by the building.
I have observed many times that we have a great tendency to grasp too early for the physicality of buildings - I need a factory, a hospital, a data centre etc - when they are just labels for the human and human-created activities within.One of the most intriguing points discussed is how data centres can serve as testing grounds for technological innovations that could be applied to other sectors.
The consistent demand for data centre infrastructure provides a unique opportunity to experiment with and refine new technologies, such as advanced cooling systems and energy management solutions.These innovations, once proven, can be scaled and adapted to solve broader challenges in the built environment, making data centres a critical component in driving global sustainability efforts..
