This page archives articles that inform No Tie Generation's approach to AI collaboration, SAP governance, and professional clarity. In short, Isard Haasakker's public bookmark collection is organised by month. It matters because transparency about intellectual influences builds trust faster than credentials, and these readings directly shape COMINDING methodology and Fast Implementation Track governance frameworks. Use it when evaluating whether No Tie Generation's thinking aligns with your transformation challenges, and avoid treating it as endorsement or comprehensive research. It is honest curation, not content marketing.

20252025

This is my public reading archive: articles, essays, and perspectives that inform how No Tie Generation thinks about AI collaboration, SAP governance, professional conduct, and cognitive clarity.

This isn't marketing content. It's not polished thought leadership. It's my actual bookmark collection made searchable and public because:

  1. I need to find these articles again: Notion works better than browser bookmarks
  2. They shape how I work: Concepts like COMINDING didn't emerge from theory; it emerged from reading dozens of pieces on human-AI collaboration, noticing patterns, and testing what worked in SAP chaos
  3. They show what I'm thinking about: If you're considering working with me, knowing what captures my attention tells you more than any LinkedIn bio

Why It's Public

Most consultants hide their influences. I'm making mine visible because transparency builds trust faster than credentials.

When an executive asks, "How do you think about AI in SAP projects?" — this archive shows the intellectual foundation. I'm not making it up as I go. I'm synthesising perspectives from cognitive science, professional communication, AI ethics, transformation psychology, and digital literacy.

When a practitioner wonders, "Does this consultant actually understand current AI challenges?". Seeing articles like "The Junk Prompts That Rot Your AI's Brain" or "AI Abstinence, AI Addiction, and Cognitive Maturity" demonstrates I'm wrestling with the same practical problems they face.

What You'll Find Here

Articles organised by month and year, covering themes that intersect with No Tie Generation's work:

Human-AI Collaboration

  • How to structure AI interactions without losing human judgment
  • Cognitive biases that emerge when working with AI tools
  • The difference between augmentation and automation

Professional Clarity

  • Communication patterns that build or erode trust
  • How to remain credible without corporate theatre
  • The psychology of first impressions and professional conduct

SAP & Enterprise Transformation

  • Why transformation projects fail despite good intentions
  • Governance mechanisms that actually work under pressure
  • The human side of technical implementations

Critical Thinking

  • Recognising pattern vs falling for hype
  • When to trust algorithms and when to override them
  • The Dunning-Kruger effect in technical consulting

How This Connects to Client Work

For my 30-day “FIT 4 SAP” S/4 prototypes: Articles on rapid validation, proof-of-concept thinking, and executive decision-making under uncertainty inform how we structure prototype engagements.

For my COMINDING framework: Every article on AI collaboration, prompt engineering quality, or human-in-the-loop systems gets stress-tested against real SAP deliverables. If a perspective survives contact with production systems at 2 AM, it becomes part of the methodology.

For my Fast Implementation Track governance: Reading about organisational psychology, trust dynamics, and accountability mechanisms shapes how we build interrogation tools for sceptical executives.

This isn't random curiosity — it's continuous professional development made visible.

What This Isn't

❌ Not endorsement — Including an article doesn't mean I agree with everything in it. Sometimes I bookmark things because they're usefully wrong.

❌ Not comprehensive — This is what caught my attention, not an exhaustive literature review.

❌ Not academic research — I'm a practitioner, not a researcher. These are inputs to working methods, not citations for papers.

❌ Not content marketing — I'm not writing summaries or hot takes. Just links with context so I remember why I saved them.

Why "Quite Interesting Bits"?

Because "Research Notes" sounds pretentious for a bookmark collection, and "Reading List" sounds like homework.

QI (the British panel show) celebrates obscure knowledge that's genuinely interesting — which is exactly what this section does. Not everything here is directly applicable to SAP projects, but everything here sparked a thought worth preserving.

Plus, it's honest. These aren't "Top 10 AI Insights for Leaders" — they're just quite interesting bits that shaped how I think about clarity, collaboration, and complexity.

How To Use This

If you're considering working with No Tie Generation: Browse the October 2025 articles and see if my intellectual interests align with your transformation challenges. If you're nodding along thinking "Yes, this is exactly the kind of thinking we need," we'll probably work well together.

If you're an SAP practitioner: Steal liberally. If an article helps you articulate why a project feels wrong, or explains a pattern you've noticed but couldn't name, use it. Tag @IsardHaasakker on LinkedIn if something here solves a problem for you.

If you're just curious: Click around. You might discover perspectives on AI, professionalism, or transformation that challenge your assumptions. That's the point — growth happens at the edges of comfort.

Regular Updates

New articles get added throughout the month. No fixed schedule — when something makes me think "I'll need this reference later," it goes here.

This is living documentation, not a finished product. Just like COMINDING, just like SAP implementations, just like professional practice itself — always evolving, never "done."
