Complexity
Ecotone organising offers a promising approach for fostering collective action on complex challenges. By creating spaces that are independent of existing organizational structures, we can cultivate hybrid cultures, shared capabilities, and flexible governance.
Complexity
We need to address the complexity gap in climate responses.
Experimentation
Let's talk about Experimentation Portfolios. Visualising an array of experiments to see active and latent potential to shift systems through living labs, mission-oriented innovation and challenge precincts.
Design
How does Codesign relate to the Sustainable Development Goals? My talk for MIG2024 explored Codesign, Complexity and the SDGs.
Experimentation
A rigorous experimentation approach (experiment-to-learn) will most likely outperform planning-based approaches (analyse-to-predict) where the challenge is dynamic and ever changing (i.e. any complex social and environmental challenge). This post explores how to do experimentation for change.
Experimentation
Lately I've been thinking about the capabilities, process and frameworks needed for effective change work, as a continuation of a theme which has run through my work for 10+ years now - experimentation.
Narrative Change
Beyond storytelling as communication about what has happened, toward creating meaning and collective action for intentional change in our world.
Complexity
I remember the feeling as the humid air hit me as I stepped off the plane in Kota Kinabalu, and the rush of excitment as I knew this was the start of a new adventure that I had no idea where it would take me. This new chapter started 15
Complexity
This post aims to capture some insights and resources which inform how we might approach change work differently than more linear 'cause and effect' planning-based efforts which have dominated the landscape of change work in the last 50 years or so.
Complexity
In this fieldnote, I'm going to dive into the guiding principles for my complexity practice - including a focus on Portfolio Approaches, Learning and Funding.
Complexity
How can we work in organisations that don't see complexxity, if we're committed to embracing complexity in our practice?
Podcasts
How can we address the biodiversity crisis, the climate crisis, whilst also improving human & more-than-human wellbeing?
