Systems, CAS
My thoughts on systems in health care. A little understanding of "complex adaptive systems" is essential to understanding the IOM's recommendations and to understanding our project. System: Interconnected parts. Complex: too many parts and relationships for easy prediction. Adaptive: The parts can make their own choices and these make / allow the system to adapt or evolve. Agreed upon simple rules can move a CAS toward its goals.

> A Dialogue Proposal, David Bohm--Community, Realtionships and Shared Meaning
As we come to understand (admit?) that organizations are not very much like mechanical systems at all, how will we deal with the complex, adaptive nature of our organizations and create a better future? I think that a special kind of dialogue will be essential. Please read some of David Bohm's Proposal.
