Gurteen Knowledge Blog April 15, 2024, 09:58In a recently updated post in my blook, I explain how Dave Snowden’s concept of safe-to-fail probes addresses the challenges of managing unpredictable, complex systems where traditional linear problem-solving is likely to fail. Large-scale interventions can be risky in complex environments where cause and effect are only apparent in hindsight—Snowden … Continue reading Navigating Complexity with Safe-to-fail Probes Dave Snowden

Emergence ** Navigating Complexity with Safe-to-fail Probes Close Pop-up all posts in this chapter Traditional change management methods, with their rigid plans and fixed outcomes, often struggle in today’s complex, unpredictable environments. Dave Snowden’s Vector Theory of Change offers a more adaptable solution by focusing on setting a broad direction (vector) rather than a specific … Continue reading The Vector Theory of Change Navigating change in a complex world
The Vector Theory of Change Exploring Uncertainty – the Role of Catalytic and Safe-to-fail Probes Close Pop-up all posts in this chapter Navigating complex systems requires innovative problem-solving approaches. Traditional linear methods often prove ineffective in unpredictable environments. Safe-to-fail probes offer a valuable tool for gaining insights, building resilience, and driving sustainable change through small-scale … Continue reading Navigating Complexity with Safe-to-fail Probes The power of safe-to-fail probes
Navigating Complexity with Safe-to-fail Probes Technical Challenges and Complex Adaptive Challenges Close Pop-up all posts in this chapter Navigating complexity requires experimental techniques. Catalytic probes stimulate system reactions, while safe-to-fail probes allow controlled failure. Both enable learning and adaptation through small-scale interventions in unpredictable environments. The concept of a “catalytic probe” is closely related to … Continue reading Exploring Uncertainty – the Role of Catalytic and Safe-to-fail Probes Essential Tools for Understanding and Influencing Complex Systems
