Systems Thinking for Business Professionals - Redesigning and Antiquated System Part 3
What you'll learn
- Build complete chord families for all seven modes using modal whole-steps and modal half-steps.
- Use Excel formulas to generate 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-note chords across any mode.
- Apply modal numbering to keep chord construction consistent across all 12 keys.
- Compare modal-distance chord naming to traditional chord symbols and understand the differences.
- Visualize chord structures on the fretboard using a stable, movable modal system.
- Identify where traditional chord naming breaks down (especially in Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Lorian).
- Rebuild chord logic using Excel tables, indexing, rotation, and pattern-based formulas.
- Translate clean modal names back into legacy chord labels for communication with other musicians.
- Recognize how modes function as fixed "continents" within a musical system.
- Analyze the historical problems of scale-degree-based naming and redesign them using logical modeling.
- Apply system-design thinking to reconstruct a complex legacy framework using Excel.
- Strengthen Excel skills such as formulas, data structures, mapping, and dynamic pattern building.
Requirements
- No prior music theory knowledge required - all concepts are explained from the ground up.
- Basic familiarity with Microsoft Excel (entering formulas, copying cells) is helpful but not required.
- A curiosity about how systems work and how to redesign them more logically.
Description
This course is a full system redesign-part music theory, part business analytics, part engineering project. It takes the entire 7-mode structure of Western music (Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Lorian/Locrian) and rebuilds chord construction from scratch using Excel as the logic engine.
Traditional chord naming is a historical patchwork of exceptions, renaming, and contradicting rules. Scale degrees shift depending on the key. Extensions jump from 7 to 9 to 11 to 13 while pretending they're still "in order." Modes are often ignored entirely-especially the messy ones like Lorian-leading to naming systems that make even simple diatonic chords look like encrypted passwords.
This course fixes all of that.
Usingmodal whole-steps and modal half-steps, you'll build a system where:
• Modes act aspermanent coordinates("continents"), not shifting reference points
• Chords are constructed byconsistent modal distances, not by renaming "the 6 is now the 1"
• Every mode-from major (Ionian) to absolute chaos (Lorian)-becomessimple, predictable, and movable
• Excel formulas become the clean mathematical documentation that traditional theory never had
We go mode by mode across all seven:
•Ionian: The "clean" mode that exposes how scale degrees hide complexity
•Dorian: A minor mode that proves modal distances are easier than interval labels
•Phrygian: The first taste of "danger zones" and where naming begins to wobble
•Lydian:The raised 4 mode that reveals how the old naming system gets overloaded
•Mixolydian:The blues/rock world that shows why modes should anchor naming
•Aeolian: The traditional minor mode where the major-based naming system gets awkward
•Lorian(Locrian): The final boss - where the old system collapses entirely, but the modal Excel system stays perfectly logical
Throughout the course, you will build full chord families for all 7 modes:
• 3-note chords
• 4-note chords
• 5-note chords
• 6-note chords
• 7-note chords
All constructed the same way:
Start at the modal node → skip every other modal position → wrap around the mode cycle → label with mode + modal distances.
No exceptions. No renaming. No contradictory rules.
Excel handles all mapping, rotation, and translation into classical naming for compatibility.
Why Business Professionals Love This Course
Because this is a systems repair project wearing a music disguise.
You learn:
• Logical modeling
• Distance calculations
• Dynamic formulas
• Movable data structures
• Rotational indexing
• Diagrammatic mapping
• Auditing old vs. redesigned systems
Music becomes the perfect case study:
A legacy system used by millions, built on structural compromises, now rebuilt cleanly using modern tools.
It's the perfect business analytics challenge with a fun topic.
Why Musicians Will Eventually Thank You
This system:
• Removes ambiguity
• Removes renaming
• Removes the major-scale bias
• Makes chords movable
• Makes modes understandable
• Turns Excel into the most accurate fretboard/keyboard visualizer ever created
It gives musicians a better system than the one they were taught, and one that can be easily converted into standard theory when needed.
What This Course Ultimately Delivers
A fully functional, Excel-powered modal chord engine that:
• Builds chords for all 7 modes
• Accurately maps modal distances
• Labels chords consistently
• Converts clean modal names back to legacy names
• Works across all 12 keys
• Matches the physical reality of the guitar fretboard
• Is ready for integration into modern DAWs, plugins, or theory education tools
This is not memorization.
This is system design - with Excel as your instrument and the entire modal system as your playground.
Who this course is for:
- Business professionals who want to learn Excel through a real, system-design project instead of generic tutorials.
- Analysts and problem-solvers who enjoy improving outdated or inconsistent systems.
- Musicians who want a clearer, more logical way to understand modes, chords, and theory structure.
- Guitarists, producers, and DAW users who want a movable, mode-based chord framework.
- Educators designing modern music-theory or analytics curriculum.
- Anyone frustrated by traditional chord naming who wants a cleaner, more intuitive system.
- Learners who prefer building things in Excel rather than memorizing lists of terms.
