Synopsis<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Many business problems do not respond well to standard business practices –
\nsurveys, business process re-engineering, total quality management etc.
\nIt\u2019s time to consider using new techniques and technology derived from the
\nlatest business thinking – an exciting fusion of complexity science,
\ncognitive neuroscience and anthropology. Complexity science provides a new
\nway of understanding strategic issues for organisations. Switching from a
\nfail-safe design mindset to one based on safe-fail experimentation creates a
\nmore resilient approach to managing uncertainty.<\/p>\n

SPEAKER BIO<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\nPA Consulting, Hewlett Packard, UK government, Aviva and the World Health
\nOrganisation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
