Today, the success of all strategic or change (and increasingly operational) efforts depends heavily on the ability of individuals, teams, and the broader ecosystem in which those actors inhabit, to collaborate effectively, even when communication between them is delayed, distributed, or fragmented.
Pathfinding is a holistic approach to collaboration designed for today’s complex and interconnected age.
It is the process of systematically working together across organizational boundaries, in a state of flow, to solve wicked problems and achieve common goals. It has been designed as an operating system for network-based collaboration.
Pathfinding represents over 15 years of research and development, drawing from, and bringing together several practices and fields of study such as systems thinking (including complexity theory and complex adaptive systems), design thinking, collaborative science, network science, and change management.
As existing management structures try, and struggle, to match the increasingly complex nature of effective organizational execution, several leading approaches and critical trends are emerging from these areas to help us understand how to address those challenges. These insights have acted as important design pillars for Pathfinding, both as a practice, and a technical protocol.
