Thanks to Joel, by way of Euan for this wonderful clip. A moral lesson for anyone wanting to pull a fast one. While on the question of trivia (serious stuff on KM Later), I was pleased to learn from the BBC that my children can only blame me if they are short, but it is […]
I am pleased to say that we have settled accreditation course dates for Europe next month and North America early next year. Accreditation courses last three days and mix theory (mainly from me) with practice (mainly from network members) and provide a chance to get an in depth understanding of Cognitive Edge methods. They also […]
I have been going to KM World as a speaker for several years now, and for the last few years it has coincided with Halloween. This is always more fun in the USA than the UK as its taken more seriously by adults and children alike. KM World has always been one of the best […]
I should now be in Caracas, but thanks to technical difficulties I am in Madeira, a small Island in the Atlantic. I arrived home from Calgary 1000 Saturday hired a car and picked up my son from the motorway to go down to Cardiff to watch Wales play in international Rugby match. 0300 the next […]

The film star Richard Burton was born in the village of Pontrhydyfen near Port Talbot. A plaque was unveiled […]
I finally got my copy of Wake me up when the data is over and read it on the plane between Calgary and Vancouver this week. The chapter I had reviewed and on which I blogged last month was I thought a good summary of the field. However that chapter proved to be very different […]
I believe that there has been a diminishing of the role played by reasoned debate. And when logic and reason are withdrawn from the public sphere, it creates a vacuum into which ideology and religious extremism rush in. Al Gore reported in the Observer last weekend (I am behind on my reading). It was in […]
The Cynefin Company (formerly known as Cognitive Edge) was founded in 2005 by Dave Snowden. We believe in praxis and focus on building methods, tools and capability that apply the wisdom from Complex Adaptive Systems theory and other scientific disciplines in social systems. We are the world leader in developing management approaches (in society, government and industry) that empower organisations to absorb uncertainty, detect weak signals to enable sense-making in complex systems, act on the rich data, create resilience and, ultimately, thrive in a complex world.
