In what's become a bit of a tradition here at the Lounge, we're delighted to welcome back Dave Snowden for our December meetup.

Dave will discuss how we need to deliberately change the conversation from talking about desirable behaviors to changing the environment so that desirable behaviors emerge. Other topics include discussing Emergence, updates on Estuarine Mapping, and the various schools of Complexity, and whatever else is on Dave's mind. It's always a pleasure to spend time with Dave and hear about where he thinks this thing we call complexity is going.

Dave is the founder and Chief Scientific Officer of The Cynefin Company (formerly known as Cognitive Edge) and the founder and Director of the Centre for Applied Complexity at the University of Wales. His work has been focused on looking at complex issues relating to strategy and organizational decision-making. He has pioneered a science-based approach to complex organizational issues - drawing on anthropology, neuroscience, and complex adaptive systems theory.
