Best, simplest explanation of how to apply Cynefin that I've come across. Thank you Jennifer!

[jnmasom]

Good video. It nicely explains why we might need to innovate, and why we might not.The provocation is: the people and approach used to address one set of problems will not work for a different set of problems.

[hamidaougab]

Nice, simple explanation of the Cynefin. thanks

[acdorsey]

Jennifer - That was the most straightforward and useful interpretation I've heard. Thank you so much. I'm interested in the other work you do...I'll google you and see the book...

Nice job of putting this into plain language. Thank you! This is useful as part of the kit for introducing Cynefin to students.

The problem with this map is that it references the current state. She mentions that things can move across it. This would be much more useful for classifying things which were always in that state by definition. The reason this breaks the model is that everybody has different information

[TheLRider]

Cynefin is a Welsh word that roughly translated means your own neighbourhood or where your roots belong. Interested to know it's derivation in this context.

[francoisherrault]

Very clear explanations, but I am very unsure that the last part of what Jennifer is saying is true. While it is possible to move a situation from chaotic to something else, just by acting (example: you come to a car accident with people lying all over the place, some dead some not dead, chaotic situation that will move to a non chaotic a while afterwards (sorry for the macabre example)), it is not possible to move from complex to complicated or simple. A complex system, for example a football team, will never be complicated, it will always be complex.
Any other opinions about that?

[sogolsweden]

Jennifer is emergent practice not the one used in complex systems? And novel practice in chaotic systems?!?

[chandusr]

What are some of examples of situations which fit in "chaotic" domain ?
