The use of systems in the context of Cynefin
- Chaos no effective constraints
- Complex has enabling constraints - in general is connected
- Order has Governing constraints - in general is contained
Cynefin then splits order into complicated and clear but the distinction there is not a phase shift - while it is between the three main systems
- Confused is in effect a triple point from which vantage, if you are in the aporetic aspect you can, at very low energy cost, make a move into any of the three main types of system (think metaphor of pressure and temperatue); if just confused you will slip into the one you are most comfortable with
