The new dynamics of strategy: sense-making in a complex and complicated world
2003
IEEE Engineering Management Review
This implies that an understanding of the causal links in past behavior allows us to define "best practice" for future behavior. ...
We begin by questioning the universality of three basic assumptions that pervade the practice and to a lesser degree the theory of decision-making and policy formulation in organizations. ...
In a sense, because we have not seen these issues addressed as fully as we would like, we put them forth as challenges to agent-based simulation of human behavior. ...
