Illuminatelogicofhybridity

It is important to clarify the hybrid logic behind complex problems, discover patterns, and capture profound insight in order to make effective decisions and solve them in a structural way.

We live in the hybrid world with hyperdiversity and all sorts of alternative solutions. Digital leaders and professionals need to leverage hybrid logic which is based on a set of interdisciplinary and integrative thoughts and reasoning to understand the complex world and solve many of today’s complex problems that require strategic consideration, systems understanding, cross-cultural and cross-generational perspectives to come up with innovative approaches.


Hybridity of analytical logic and intuitive logic: Analysis is about using quality information to capture fresh insight. Intuition is the ability to have quick insight. So analysis is “slow thinking” logic, and intuition is a quick thinking logic. Many may think intuition is opposite to logic, but more precisely, an intuitive mind is a complementary thought process to rational thinking. Hybrid logic enables us to balance out the biases from which the poor decisions are made. 

In the human context, information analysis + intuition drives awareness and discernment, following the logical steps in decision smart: Study the situation; ask questions; collect information; articulate logic; filter out the bias; perceive the consequences, assess the outcome.

Hybridity of rationality based on hard science and nonlinear logic based on human science: There is logic behind any problem, it’s important to avoid the trap of emotional turbulence or unconscious bias based on personal perception, incoherent logic. Besides rational reasoning based on hard science such as mathematical induction-deduction scenarios, the nonlinear logic can be clarified by digging into the cross-boundary disciplines about complex problems, physiologically, sociologically, or philosophically. To put simply, human science provides a great angle to understand issues comprehensively in order to handle them holistically. 

Digital leaders and professionals should listen to the stories from the opposite sides and take the multidimensional lenses to perceive the multi-facet world via interdisciplinary inference or reasoning. They are able to see things underneath and around the corner, be sensitive to the emerging trends, and take a balanced view of digital flow in order to solve problems smoothly.

Hybridity of critical thinking logic based on independent understanding and collaborative logic based on collective insight:
Given the complexity and uncertainty of the business world and given the fallacies of individual decision-making, more often than not, lack of knowledge and scarcity of insight lead to poor decision-making. Independent thinking is extremely important to make sound judgment in the digital era in which information is only a few clicks away, but the true insight has been inundated with outdated knowledge. Independent thinking means you do not follow others' opinions blindly, but practice critical thinking, analyze and synthesize all sources of information to form your own opinion. 

However, each individual has a limited cognitive threshold. It is always beneficial to communication, interpretation, and accuracy of overall results when multiple heads with cognitive differences come together to interpret and define information sources and outcomes. Such collaborative logic helps to balance out the biases, generate more viable alternatives, resources, criteria, etc, all of which is shown to improve the quality of understanding.

The problems today usually have many causes and can be very complex, you can't figure out the exact cause and effect so the solutions are vague. You cannot make a true paradigm shift without an in-depth understanding of the digital interconnectivity and embracing the multitude of digital hybridity. It is important to clarify the hybrid logic behind complex problems, discover patterns, and capture profound insight in order to make effective decisions and solve them in a structural way.
