Simple or complex, chaotic or complicated? Are you consistently able to accurately evaluate the scenarios in your life? Most likely, the answer is no. But, we’re determined to transition that! Why? Simply put, your reaction to a situation is influenced by how you interpret it. If your interpretation is off-mark, for example deeming a complex situation as a simple one, your response – a minimalistic method, solution or decision – will often fall short of being apt or sufficient. So, what’s the process? Firstly, we need to understand what characterizes a complex scenario and how it varies from other situations. The Cynefin Framework by Snowden and Boone is a useful tool in this regard. Only when the situation is accurately identified can we devise suitable methods and solutions as well as make informed decisions. Remember, your personal experience, knowledge, and skills play a pivotal role in influencing your perception of a situation – meaning, the same situation can hold different connotations for different individuals.
