Maybe you could share with the reset of us more on the path followed to get from abstract concept to practical method? Dave Snowden is by the way very careful not to label his Cynefin approach as either a method or framework. I think he may be one of the few to get it right in terms of allowing enough taxonomic flexibility in the methodological sense for highly abstract concepts. Anyway, would be interested in finding out more.

Our firm, The Clarion Group, practitioners at helping organizations find ways to create value, are at the cusp of translating these concepts into practical methods and frameworks that leaders of enterprises can use to think differently about value creation. It will require looking not only at how to develop “engagement platforms” (a wonderfully descriptive term)and “technical and social architectures”, but also a new set of leadership capabilities, and establishing new beliefs and assumptions to operate an enterprise by. Some of the new generation of leaders “get” what is required – perhaps still too few today, but this will grow for all of the reasons Prof. Ramaswany provides.

For a complexity treaty of air transportation, see my 2012 AIAA article at https://www.sugarsync.com/pf/D9766506_69713306_03780. In essence it says that the reductionist mindset still dominates the landscape, and hence designing the next generation system to leverage complexity is a futile exercise.

For the information age as a platform for individual empowerment, see my latest blog entry on human psychology as barrier at http://alturl.com/obx3c.

See also Karl Albrecht’s contrast between the information wave and brain wave at http://www.karlalbrecht.com/articles/pages/brainwave.htm

In essence just because the world in more interconnected doesn’t lead directly to a revolution in social organization. There is a mental barrier we have yet to pass in my opinion.
