Complexity: A Key Idea for Business and Society Mowles Chris
This book interprets insights from the complexity sciences to explore seven types of complexity better to understand the predictable unpredictability of social life. The book investigates what forms of knowledge are most helpful for thinking about complex experience, reflects on the way we exercise authority (leadership) and thinks through the ethical implications of trying to co-operate in a complex world. Drawing on the natural and social sciences, it describes how complexity models are helpful but insufficient for our understanding of complex reality.Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the book develops a complex theory of action more consistent with our experience that our plans inevitably lead to unexpected outcomes, explains why we are both individuals and thoroughly social, and gives an account of why, no matter how clear our message, we may still be misunderstood.
