Bio Sketches David Snowden His subsequent work has taken him into the integration of learning and knowledge using models derived from complexity science and the development of advanced techniques for the management of informal communities and the simulation of social networks. His work on Narrative has continued to develop with highly original work on the use of archetypes for a variety of purposes, oral history as an augmentation or alternative to Intellectual Capital Management Systems and the integration of complexity and narrative models into advanced decision support tools for strategy formation, scenario planning, innovation, branding and cultural change/integration. The success of this work had led to the creation of the Cynefin Centre, membership of which is open to individuals and to organisations. It focuses on high participation action research projects seeking new insights into the nature of organisations and markets using models derived from sciences that recognise the inherent uncertainties of social systems. Programmes run on a national, international and regional basis and range from investigation of seemingly impossible or intractable problems to pragmatic early entry into new methods and tools such as narrative databases, social network stimulation and asymmetric threat management. The basis of all programmes is to look at any issue from new perspectives and to facilitate problem solving through multiple interaction between programme participants.
