Simple, in which the relationship between cause and effect is obviousComplicated, cause and effect requires analysis or some other form of investigation and/or expert knowledgeComplex, cause and effect can only be perceived in retrospect, but not in advanceChaotic, no relationship between cause and effect at systems level, the approach is to Act - Sense - Respond and we can discover novel practice.Disorder, which is the state of not knowing what type of causality exists, in which state people will revert to their own comfort zone in making a decision. In full use, the Cynefin framework has sub-domains, and the boundary between simple and chaotic is seen as a catastrophic one: complacency leads to failure.Where projects like Exchange sit Complicated – think Office365Where SharePoint projects tend to sit (because of the people) - Complex / Emergent Complete timesheetsDiversity – look at where we come fromhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cynefin Dave Snowden et al

The meaning is fluid depending on your domain of expertise; The meaning is different based on your job role and accountabilities; and The meaning is different based on the context of the problem to be solved. Similar “quality”, “innovation”, “effectiveness” “information architecture”. This is because they are all means by which you achieve a goal. They cannot be measured on their own, either because without knowing what “Quality” or “Effectiveness” actually looks like (i.e. the difference it makes to a situation), a definition is likely to be either: Overly wordy and overly complex So overly fundamental and simplistic that it doesn’t actually help (and is open to interpretation) Content and size management – db’s and quota etcMetrics and analysis of usageReviews – manually/automatedGive sample of house to help explain farm
