Being context-fluent aids you in understanding what’s relevant and what’s not, searching for flaws in decisions, widening the possibility of pursuing the better version of truth.
From a problem solving perspective, context is of utmost importance as it shapes insightful views of complex things and deepens perceptions of a specific cause and effect in a specific context or the core issues of a situation. Contextual fluency leads to true understanding of circumstances and solves problems in a structural way.
An open business ecosystem has all its dependencies and interconnectivity; the pace of digital or global paradigm shifts is quickening, the pace of incremental change is quickening, aggregating to the large-scale of changes quicker than previously. Insightful leaders sometimes need to help design a new context, which will enable them to pull innovative approaches out of all of the tools and contexts that have emerged as a result of the combined knowledge and experience of mankind. How smartly you connect your dots by leveraging your cross disciplinary knowledge or cross-functional experiences in finding a solution to the problems is crucial to improve holistic organizational manageability and business agility.
The hyperconnectivity nature of digital breaks down the functional, geographical, industrial borders. Businesses today become much more nonlinear, interconnected, and interdependent than ever. Digital leaders and professionals must be comfortable with “VUCA '' reality, being context-fluent aids you in understanding what’s relevant and what’s not, searching for flaws in decisions, widening the possibility of pursuing the better version of truth, solving tough problems radically, and advancing human society structurally.
Knowledge and understanding of what is appropriate to the context: In today's hyper-connected and interdependent digital world, the disruptions come almost overnight, and the knowledge cycle is significantly shortened. Contextualization is about broadening the understanding of a specific cause and effect in a specific context. A simple variable can be both cause and effect; all meaningful things connect to something else, in fact, our world is a hyper-connected and interdependent system.
Contextualism leads us a few steps closer to wisdom by exploring different views, opening our mind, broadening our perspectives, learning fresh knowledge, and deepening our understanding of complex issues comprehensively in order to make sound judgment and improve problem-solving effectively. If the organization understands itself in relation to its context, it should be able to determine whether it requires changing something to become viable, and how to orchestrate systematic change for unlocking its potential.
Desire to do what is appropriate in the context: Reality will not be still; and it cannot be taken apart. The border of knowledge domains is blurred and the scope of knowledge is expanded in the continual base. Business leaders or professionals shape the new box of thinking to capture unique insight; being fluent in contextual intelligence aids you in understanding what’s relevant and what’s not; working through the context across the boxes to inspire alliance, initiate interdisciplinary practices and develop a systematic approach to lead transformative changes.
Contextual Intelligence is a construct that involves the ability to recognize and diagnose the plethora of contextual factors inherent in an event or circumstance, then intentionally adjust behaviors to exert influence in that context. Leaders with contextual intelligence are able to see the context “part” of, allowing them to identify the leverage points and choose the decisive factors, in the attempt to make effective decisions for better problem-solving.
The context offers new opportunities to do what is appropriate by understanding interconnectivity and removing impediments: The business is complex and the organization is contextual today. Without the contextual understanding of people, process, and technology, blind spots, multitude of gaps, and change pitfalls are inevitable. Contextual intelligence also helps people gain an in-depth understanding of impediments of change such as silo mentality, unhealthy competitions, cultural inertia, misinterpretation, process or system incoherence, performance inconsistency, etc., so they can fix problems radically.
