In my last blog, I spoke about delivering the goods and how consumers, whether past, present or future, want the best for their money. That will never change. Another thing that will never change is that art forms will always draw from the past, reflect on the present, and look to the future. That applies to everything from art and architecture to business.

How does the complexity theory apply to business? (A Brief Dialogue)
Member Question: Has anyone applied complexity theory to business in a practical way?

In the area of supply chain practice for example (although the term “chain” is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture instead of the synchronized architecture that represents the dynamic characteristics of different stakeholders within the real-world), one seeks to understand the unique operating attributes of individual stakeholders using an agent-based model.

Don’t Hire a Web Developer to Build Your Website!
I was a meeting with a client recently and he mentioned that he was considering hiring a programmer from overseas to help complete a small web project. He felt it just made more sense financially.
