complexity: even dead fish go with the flow
Explore the differences between ordered and complex systems.
why do we struggle with complex systems?
As human beings we place a lot of value on order, and try to make our world and workplaces as ordered and predictable as possible. Although we have made great advances in fine-tuning ordered systems, which are predictable and knowable, we have found that our efforts fall short when we utilise the same approach when dealing with complex systems, which are unpredictable and unknowable.
how to navigate complexity
Navigating complexity requires us to adopt an approach which isn’t based on predictability and homogeneity. It requires us to embrace uncertainty and divergence, tap into the vast knowledge of various players in our systems, seek our patterns and take small ‘safe to fail’ actions which nudge our organisation in a desirable direction.
