How to master complexity also in an uncomplicated way
?
In many cases unknown complex systems discourage us, although we have to deal with such systems every day.
It's "just" a matter of a practical perception and a suitable method.
That needs
a perception with different points of view,
a harmonising and working team and
a matching and suitable model.
Why shouldn't our wishes come true?
However precondition is that these wishes are even set as a target.
To want to halve, increase by 10 per cent or also to stay equal of something complex, very difficult to completely recognise, is mischief !
It is essentially promising better results to steer complex systems by targets of its content. Doing so you will not be characterised as a lier more likely.
We are glad about the name and the words of introduction from the chairman of the representation of the European Commission in Austria - Dipl.-Ing. Karl Georg Doutlik for our new on-line test, the Fish Test...!
So you may get a picture of the soft-facts in your organisation by using it.

Where do we get a perception with different points of view ?
How does a perception about complex circumstances emerge?
There is imminent danger if a complex situation is trivialised - with inadequate means (bricolage), or it is ignored - "downplay" !
How do we consider differnt points of view?
How do we get different views easily and comprehensible?
By:
How do we get a harmonising and working team ?
How do we build such a team and how do we control its behaviour?
There is imminent danger if a team ends in itself - becomes self-absorbed (Leviathan), or shifts the responsibility on to each other - "Syndrome of the Bay of Pigs" !
And how do we create the team spirit?
Team spirit results from:
How do we get models ?
And how do we know if they are matching and suitable!
There is imminent danger if a model is applied only to itself - self-righteous (Leviatan), or it is instable instead of self-regulating - "escalate" !
Suitable models must be flexible and easy to create.
And how do we adapt such a model to our needs?
