Turning Problems into Patterns with Adaptive Action
Glenda Eoyang, Founding Executive Director, Human Systems Dynamics Institute is joined by Portage Northern High School students Rosie and Logan to talk about adaptive action and how we work together, despite our differences, to get unstuck!
Glenda Eoyang is a pioneer in the applications of complexity science to human systems. As the Founding Executive Director of the Human Systems Dynamics Institute, Glenda develops adaptive capacity in others, so they see patterns in the chaos that surrounds them, understand the patterns in simple and powerful ways, and take practical steps to shift chaos toward coherence. Her published works include books and scholarly articles in a variety of fields including Radical Rules for Schools (2013) and Adaptive Action: Leveraging Uncertainty in Your Organization (2013).
