The Cynefin framework is
a model
used to describe problems, situations and systems. The model provides a typology
of contexts that guides what sort of explanations and/or solutions may apply.
Cynefin is a Welsh word, which is commonly translated into English as 'habitat'
or 'place', although this fails to convey its full meaning. A more complete
translation of the word would be that it conveys the sense that we all have
multiple pasts of which we can only be partly aware: cultural, religious,
geographic, tribal etc. The term was chosen by the Welsh scholar Dave Snowden to illustrate
the evolutionary nature of complex systems, including their inherent
uncertainty. The name is a reminder that all human interactions are strongly
influenced and frequently determined by our experiences, both through the direct
influence of personal experience, and through collective experience, such as
stories or music.
