Member Question:

Has anyone applied complexity theory to business in a practical way?

Asheville, U.S.

My Response:

The chaos theory and butterfly effect are interesting concepts in terms of the “complexity” of business.

Over a number of years and through funding from the Government of Canada’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Program I developed a theory called strand commonality.
