| This blog is MOVING: new site is almost ready: change your readers, now: http://www.pattianklam.com/blog Sunday, September 28, 2003 Cynefin I just got back from an intense week in New York City, certifying as a Cynefin consultant. Very diverse set of people, with US-based consultants definitely in the minority. It is still "emerging" as a methodology, but many of the components of the methodology have become tacit and transferable.
On Thursday, David Snowden returned from Washington DC, and held up a copy of a center-fold advertisement by IBM in the Wall Street Journal for Tuesday, 9/23. Very laid back photo of David, headline: "What Bartleby the Scrivener can tell you about Bob the sales guy." Although there are still a number of IBM politics (which David relishes, I think), it is apparent that there are adherents in IBM of shifting at least some of the business consulting framework to thinking along the lines of complexity, narrative collection, and descriptive self-awareness.
David Gurteen has a good collection of Cynefin writings on his web site. Comments: Post a Comment
