Layers of complexity I have never been in a project with stable velocity. I find it really hard to measure the impact of changes in process. I find myself cringing everytime anyone compares programming to a car factory. I don't think I am alone.
With the help of Medium Number Systems and the Cynefin Framework I will show why a complex and non deterministic process cannot use the same feedback process as a deterministic one. |

People Are Funny: Engaging Complex Human Systems Dynamics People, particularly people in groups, often act in ways we couldn’t predict and don’t understand. Human systems, like teams and organizations, display the most complex dynamics of all complex adaptive systems. In this interactive session, Diana Larsen will introduce models and methods from the Human Systems Dynamics Institute that leaders like you can use to gain a deeper understanding of the dynamics in your own teams and organizations and choose next steps to influence them toward true greatness. |
