Essence and The Flow System - Pieces of the Puzzle?

Detail:

Join Ivar and Nigel for a discussion on The Flow System, Essence and why they are complementary pieces of the same puzzle.

The Flow System is a system of learning and understanding of how to operate in complex environments. It comprises three helixes: complexity thinking, distributed leadership, and team science. It enables business growth through eliminating non-value-added activities, fostering an environment for innovation, enabling the rapid delivery of value, and shortening the time to market. It also provides a re-imagined system for organizations to understand complex problems, embrace distributed leadership, and build high-performing teams.

Essence provides a formal but lightweight language for describing processes to allow them to combine to create frameworks. Its focus on describing the individual practices promotes reuse. Its visual representation on playing cards promotes interactive learning and encourages use beyond the classroom when the practice is being used.

Using the Essence language to represent the practices within The Flow System, we can unlock new ways to teach, learn and use The Flow System through the use of Essence enabled tooling, serious games and easy to use cards.
