Your Innovator’s Toolkit: The map is not the territory
- “The map is not the territory.” The meaning of this aphorism is straightforward: we may imagine a means of understanding the mundane world, or a part of it; but we should not mistake this story for the truth: we should not believe everything we think.

We map the world, ourselves included
Map is not the Territory
The map is not all the Territory - it is bound to leave out things on Territory
Maps are self reflexive - ie map maker may pretend to transcend the map but he is affecting the map making
Prashant Patel added
Map is not the Territory
Territory is not a Touch down
Touch down is not the journey
Journey is not the Route
Route is not Behaviour
