Do you find yourself navigating complex situations where clear solutions are elusive? Join us for an engaging and insightful workshop on Estuarine Mapping, a cutting-edge approach to understanding and navigating complex contexts, that draws upon concepts and frameworks developed by Dave Snowden and The Cynefin Company (https://cynefin.io/wiki/Estuarine_framework). Inspired by the dynamic nature of estuaries where tides, currents, and diverse elements interact, this framework provides a powerful lens for strategic thinking and decision-making in uncertain environments. In this workshop, you will:

• Discover the core principles of Estuarine Mapping: Learn how this framework moves beyond traditional linear planning to embrace the inherent complexity of systems.
• Master the Estuarine Mapping process: We will guide you through the key steps, including mapping constraints, understanding energy and time implications, and identifying areas for potential influence.
• Learn to identify "Micro-Nudges": Discover how to initiate small, safe-to-fail experiments to navigate complex challenges and foster emergent solutions.
• Apply Estuarine Mapping to real-world scenarios: Through interactive exercises, you'll gain practical experience in using this framework to address complex issues relevant to various fields.
• Connect with like-minded individuals: Network with professionals interested in innovative approaches to complexity and strategic thinking.

Why is Estuarine Mapping important?

• Navigating Complexity: It provides tools to make sense of and act within situations where cause-and-effect relationships are not clear. By focusing on the present context and potential pathways, it helps in setting a direction rather than rigid goals. By promoting small experiments, it allows for learning and flexible responses to emerging conditions. By encouraging small experiments, it can lead to the emergence of novel solutions.
• Offers a visual and collaborative approach: Mapping limitations and possibilities together builds shared understanding and facilitates communication. The mapping process can help to surface different perspectives and build a shared understanding of the system's dynamics.
• Risk Management: By understanding limitations and potential vulnerabilities, it can help to mitigate risks associated with interventions.

In essence, Estuarine Mapping offers a sophisticated yet practical way to approach complex systems by visualising emergent patterns and dynamics of a challenge, to identify transformation through adaptive actions. Who should attend? This workshop is valuable for:

• Leaders and managers seeking new approaches to strategic planning.
• Project managers navigating complex projects with many stakeholders.
• Innovation teams looking for methods to foster creativity and manage uncertainty.
• Consultants and facilitators working with complex organizational challenges.
• Anyone interested in understanding and navigating complexity more effectively.

Workshop Details:

• Facilitator: Linus Brunis, Berlin, businessdialoge.de

What to bring:

• An open mind and willingness to engage in new perspectives.

We look forward to exploring the power of Estuarine Mapping with you!
