Cynefin; Situational Decision Making & Leadership In A VUCA World!

The Cynefin Sense-making Framework (pronounced kuh-nev-in) is a decision-making framework currently used for situational assessment in technology, industry, government, healthcare, and the military. Use it to understand what kind of situation you are dealing with, the combination of factors comprising that situation, and so decide on an appropriate set of responses.

TAKEAWAYS:
This session will introduce you to the Cynefin Framework, and enable you:

• Immediately apply the framework to your work
• Know and recognize the sense-making domains (Obvious, Complicated, Complex, Chaotic, Ordered, Unordered & Disordered)
• Have a basic grasp of design techniques for responses in each domain and when, how, and why to move from one domain to another
• Appreciate that even a basic understanding of Cynefin is valuable
