Complexity Science and KM

Complexity science is highly relevant for KM as it is (also) about behaviour of people within organisations and drawing conclusions on their complex interactions.

I first read about complexity theory in the book "The New Knowledge Management : Complexity, Learning, and Sustainable Innovation " by Mark W. Elroy and first heard a colleague of mine speak about it around two years ago. He referred to the topic as an analytical approach to chaos theory, which - to be honest - confused me at the time but becomes clearer with more contact with the subject.

Now knowledgeboard.com is addressing the issue with a Special Interest Group, to be moderated by Carol Webb, who is currently looking for formal expressions of interest by (latest) Friday 9 December 2005. Please contact Carol directly for any questions.
