In this second post, I promised to describe the AIMS framework fully, and in doing that, I will also bring in ASHEN in an integrated frame with one of the critical parts of Estuarine Mapping. I first referenced this on the blog in January, but I had already started to use and develop it several […]
I haven’t used a gapingvoid® cartoon for a bit in a blog post, but this one could not have been more appropriate for my theme of today, which deals with both conflict and the AI issue; hence, my playing with the A and the I in the title. The other reason is the pattern-based QuickSense […]
The Cynefin Company (formerly known as Cognitive Edge) was founded in 2005 by Dave Snowden. We believe in praxis and focus on building methods, tools and capability that apply the wisdom from Complex Adaptive Systems theory and other scientific disciplines in social systems. We are the world leader in developing management approaches (in society, government and industry) that empower organisations to absorb uncertainty, detect weak signals to enable sense-making in complex systems, act on the rich data, create resilience and, ultimately, thrive in a complex world.
