A couple of weeks ago I gave the second talk in a series of talks looking at the underlying evidence, mechanisms and meaning of collapse and phase transitions in complex systems and what this means for management. The first talk (slides and video here) focused heavily on the underlying science of collapse and non-linear transitions. [...]

Collapse Dynamics: Phase Transitions in Complex Social Systems
November 29 09
Here are the original slides and video from my first lecture at the LSE complexity programme, exploring the underlying mechanisms of phase transition and non-linear change in social systems. This talk focused heavily on the underlying mechanisms of collapse and non-linear transitions. The evidence suggests that systems become vulnerable to phase transition (i.e., collapse) when [...]
