The A/B/U framework

• Simple-but-profound framework¹ that I really like! From ORI, the Open Research Institute (really from DefenderofBasic, the main guy)

My writings about A/B/U

• Why A B U is so useful for me
• A B U gifs, maladaptive Bs, and Kegan’s “Immunity to Change”
• The non-ideal pedagogy of the A B U model

High-level overview

• Officially documented here (link may be dead, ORI are very early-stage and change things a lot)
