cw Can We Have Nice Things
Upskilling programme

Economic and strategic fundamentals, taught like a trade.

The square fails if only specialists can read the books. These tracks are short, numbered, and built to be taken before you post.

Track I

The four columns

Assets, claims, income, outgoings. How a household, a firm and an island use the same grammar.

4 sessions · ledger lab

Track II

Opportunity cost

Every yes is a no. Ranking, time, and the thing you did not build.

3 sessions · modeller

Track III

Strategy without theatre

Position, constraint, sequence. What a small island can uniquely do.

4 sessions · case work

Track IV

Reading a tender

From preference to brief: scope, risk, who builds, what “done” looks like.

2 sessions · GOAT liaison

Track V

Mediated argument

How to use a reasoning engine without handing it the vote. Steelman, source, cost.

3 sessions · square practice

Studio

At the academy

Hands on the same problems in the Petersfield node: plants, machines, stories.
