Capabilities Approach

A method is a promise: do these steps and something improves. Capabilities Approach keeps its promise if you keep yours.

The method fails only in one way: people read it, nod, and return to the old habit. The technique is not the hard part. The hard part is Tuesday.

It is worth keeping in your pocket not because it is always right, but because it is always available. A tool you carry beats a perfect tool you left at home.

In any Indian office there is one person who knows where everything is, whom to call, and how things actually get done. The organisation chart does not show this person. Reality does.

An organisation is only a group of people who have agreed, for now, to pull in roughly the same direction. That is all. A small tool, honestly kept, beats a large one admired.
