What we’re about
Be sure and check out recordings of all of our past Complexity Lounge sessions at https://www.youtube.com/@ComplexityLounge
The study of complexity helps us to be open to new perspectives, consider non-linear non-causal relationships, and encourages an experimental mindset.
We created The Complexity Lounge to discuss Complexity Science, Complex Adaptive Systems, Organizational Change, and Agile / Adaptive approaches to work and everyday life. We share case studies and discuss the latest advances in complexity thinking. We also talk about sense-making principles and tools from the Cynefin Framework.
If you work in organizational design, organizational transformation, agile transformation, learning organizations, the modern knowledge economy, or are just interested in how you can better understand complexity, join us!

•OnlineAlicia Juarrero - A Conversation About Context, Philosphy, & Complexity
OnlineIn this wide-ranging discussion, we'll talk with one of our favorite guests, Alicia Juarrero.
Our starting point will be her new book: Why Context Matters: Or, Where Did Anglo-America Philosophy Go Wrong? We'll ask her to provide some historical context before we move on to the implications of her thesis for modern organizations and everyday life. We'll touch on some of our favorite complexity topics: causality, mereology, constraints, and, of course, context.
We'll kick off the conversation, may have a special mystery guest, and then open it up to audience discussion. See you there!
