Lavandula × intermedia ‘Gros Bleu’, commonly known as Gros Bleu lavender, (pronounced like Grow Blue) is a standout variety prized for its exceptionally long stems and rich, true purple flower color. Among lavandins, ‘Gros Bleu’ is widely recognized for delivering one of the truest purples available, and that color holds beautifully whether the flowers are used fresh or dried.
This vigorous evergreen shrub forms a well-balanced plant with strong stems rising above aromatic gray-green foliage. In midsummer, it produces an abundant flush of showy flower spikes that create dramatic visual impact in the landscape while also excelling in bouquets, wreaths, and craft projects.
‘Gros Bleu’ is a favorite not only for its beauty, but also for its reliability and performance. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, tolerates heat and drought once established, and returns year after year with consistent bloom. For growers seeking a lavender that performs equally well in the garden and in cut-flower applications, this variety is a top choice.

Would your card still be in the deck after the AI reshuffle?
Format: Paperback
AI’s impact on knowledge workers, and on enterprises, is immense. “Good enough” and inexpensive answers now abound, and the premium once commanded by knowledge workers seems to be slipping away. Enterprises are pinning their hopes on AI-driven efficiencies to stay competitive and relevant. Emotions surrounding this technological breakthrough range from doom and gloom to glee and hope.
Sangeet’s Reshuffle helps build a mental model to understand, navigate, and survive this change, and even thrive in it. It’s a refreshing departure from the usual first-order effects and fallacies that dominate social and print media.
For knowledge workers, staying relevant is becoming increasingly difficult, especially as the very definition of “relevance” evolves. Simply acquiring AI skills may not suffice if the underlying value of those skills has shifted. Judgment, systems thinking, and coordination will become more valuable. Remaining well-paid and autonomous will require protecting and growing contextual and economic value within this transformed system. Simple, but not easy.
At the enterprise level, applying AI for task-based efficiencies in one area often shifts constraints elsewhere. Using systems thinking and positioning AI as the engine, not merely a tool, for innovation and coordination across the value chain will give enterprises a fighting chance to stay competitive.
While the metaphorical pie may grow, simply “playing the same game better” won’t earn you a proportional share of it. Existing systems will be unbundled and re-bundled into offerings that solve emerging constraints. Coordinating across the value chain and taking responsibility for delivering customer outcomes will be key to unlocking outsized gains.

A great addition to my Kindle library and a candidate to our Best Book Picks of 2025.
Format: Kindle
In setting the scene, Sangeet reminds us that, in the 1960s, Singapore was a struggling port city with limited natural resources and a rather tenuous future. It's hard to imagine but true. A strategic location in South East Asia. But such location meant little if it could not draw talent and capital to develop the infrastructure needed to grow, and here a deceptively simple and modular invention helped - the shipping container.
Harvard Professor Carliss Y. Baldwin, in her book Design Rules, shared with us how technology shapes organisations, indeed entire industries and societal structures, and so, as we envision and put a technology to use, who decide how organisations are shaped, who governs them, and where power and agency lies.
Yet AI is not just any other technology. We are not in full control of the technology and its power to learn, re-shape itself, and its impact on the nature of work therefore extends well beyond the individual using AI tools. This is where Sangeet takes us, into a hugely relevant and timely discussion of how AI presents immense opportunities as well as grave risks to the knowledge economy, as we know it today.
The questions raised are profound: among these...
- How would power shift from the current ways of work we are accustomed to, towards autonomous networks that make decisions and learn on their own (and faster than us)?
- Which organizational models best capture the shifts towards AI-supported value creation? and what path could such a transition follow?
- How would these impact the opportunities and risks for collaboration, within and beyond the enterprise?
A whole chapter is dedicated to strategy, and deservedly so. AI in itself does not provide a competitive advantage. Let’s not rush to appoint a Chief AI Officers or draw-up a so-called AI-strategy, for what is essentially a set of widely distributed and accessible technologies. We need a business strategy that acknowledges the deep impacts AI is and will continue to make. Before we rush to layer AI on top of org. processes and models that have served us in previous generations, let’s take an ecosystem-wide view and ask - where are we now? What is fundamentally changing, and Where can we harness its trends towards an advantage?
Having read Sangeet's book, my advice is this - seize the opportunity, invite others to the conversation and be open to new forms of power and control, as the organisations that win tomorrow are already experimenting in doing things differently today.
A great addition to my Kindle library and a candidate to our Best Book Picks of 2025.
