Henrik Kniberg:
I like this exercise because:
* **quick & easy**
* triggers **valuable discussions**
* helps **visualize** strengths and weaknesses
* encourages teamwork (“how to help each other succeed”)
* counteracts pidgeon-holing ("that's not my job")
* helps people get to know each other better
* takes into account the fact that people can (and often like to) broaden their skills
## Tacit knowing
-We know more than we can tell (Polanyi, 1966)
## Learning organization?
-Learning on the job
## => Working together
-Working and learning together,
pair work, over written knowledge transfer

### Experience
* A,B,C,D = f.ex skills
* \* = ok + have skills/ experience
* o = ok + limited experience/ skills
* ! = interested!

Note:
"ok" = ok to work with

## "Lisa"
* mastering + learning
* robust for changes in skill needs
![starmap ok for person](starmap-lisa.png)
--
## Skill "C"
* learning on the job
* increasing robustness
![starmap robust skills availability](starmap-c.png)
--
## Skill "D"
* vulnerable
* even more risk if no interest
![starmap vulnerable skill needs](starmap-d.png)
--
## "David"
* "motivation risk" - less learning on the job?
* "risk" - vulnerable for changed skills needs?

## perhaps
* planning a bit forward
* A,B,C,D - technologies, context, aspects?
* include "not desired"?
