4 Perspectives on Right Answers -- Cynefin Framework

     
     Right answers are not always evident, right paths can always be found.
     I stumbled across Dave Snowden's 1999 work about the Cynefin Framework. It's a framework for exploring uncertain land. Cynefin is a Welsh word that Dave describes as  "rooted in many paths, of which we are only partially aware..."  He describes it best in the video to the left.
    In a time of change, right answers are not always evident, right paths can always be found.  Simplicity is indeed valuable, however it has dangers too.  
    I'm still processing this new information and seeing many links to my own life, family, church, leadership and path.  What do you see?
