  • Complexity theory and leadership practice: A review, a critique, and some recommendations

    Leadership Quarterly

    There is an extensive literature on complexity theory authored by natural scientists writing about research fields in which they are themselves active. There is also a growing literature that draws on this work to address leadership concerns and practices, but whose authors are experienced in leadership education rather than in the substantive scientific fields whose findings they report and interpret. We shall refer to this arena as complexity leadership. The initial burst of enthusiasm for…

    There is an extensive literature on complexity theory authored by natural scientists writing about research fields in which they are themselves active. There is also a growing literature that draws on this work to address leadership concerns and practices, but whose authors are experienced in leadership education rather than in the substantive scientific fields whose findings they report and interpret. We shall refer to this arena as complexity leadership. The initial burst of enthusiasm for complexity management and leadership in the 1990s, as a conceptual framework for informing organisational practice, has not been sustained at its early intensity. However, the field continues to attract interest. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to a discussion of the validity and significance of these ideas for the leadership of organisations. We enable this through a review of the literature, a critique, and some recommendations. The type of questions which we will be raising are: (1) What failings in current leadership theory or practice are claimed to be corrected? (2) How novel, and how plausible, are the leadership prescriptions which are derived from complexity theory? (3) Does complexity theory provide scientific authority for these prescriptions? We find a paradox in the complexity leadership message which, on the one hand, claims to be rooted in complexity theory, but at the same time, rejects key denominators of the hard sciences. Finally, we offer suggestions on how to constructively handle the apparent paradox.

  • Reflexive design thinking: putting more human in human-centered practices.

    ACM Interations

    Over the years we have been involved in practices of applying methods and insights of human- computer interaction (HCI) for client engagements. Specifically, we emphasize a human-centered approach employing ethnography and participatory design that we collectively refer to as human-centered design practices. Yet we have become increasingly aware of a gap between what we do in our practice and what HCI offers us by inherently delimiting outcomes to technological solutions

  • Method and Apparatus Related to Management of Experiments

    Angemeldet am US 20100042351

    In one embodiment, a method includes sending an indicator of an availability of a sample from a sample pool stored in a physical inventory. The sample being included in the sample pool based on an attribute of the sample satisfying a condition associated with the sample pool. An indicator that the sample has been selected from the sample pool for analysis at a first test site included in an array of test sites is received. A rule is retrieved from a rule database based on an experimental…

    In one embodiment, a method includes sending an indicator of an availability of a sample from a sample pool stored in a physical inventory. The sample being included in the sample pool based on an attribute of the sample satisfying a condition associated with the sample pool. An indicator that the sample has been selected from the sample pool for analysis at a first test site included in an array of test sites is received. A rule is retrieved from a rule database based on an experimental parameter value associated with the first test site. At least one of the experimental parameter value associated with the first test site or an experimental parameter value associated with a second test site is modified based on a condition within the rule being satisfied.
