Emerging from Chaos – and Merry Christmas Whitehall!
17/12/2019
In March we blogged about using the CYNEFIN Framework (Leading and Managing in Simple, Complicated, Complex and Chaotic Domains) to understand what methods to use in a Chaotic Environment such as BREXIT!
Well, it looks like, after last week’s General Election, we are starting to emerge from the Chaotic Domain, back into the more manageable Complex Domain. BUT, the crux that we noted in our blog at the time was that the new Complex Domain is going to look very different than the previous version. And, if his bite is as fierce as his bark (or blogs), watch out Whitehall!

We hope you’ve enjoyed reading our blogs over the years, and Merry Christmas to all our readers
