A Leader's Framework for Decision Making
The citable Cynefin paper: clear, complicated, complex and chaotic domains each demand different action logics — plans work in complicated domains; complex domains want probe–sense–respond. The domain-scoping that keeps “strategy-as-prediction fails” honest: much of any programme’s work (budgets, cohorts, publishing) is merely complicated, and plans remain the right tool there. Companion to the The Cynefin Framework Glossary entry.
