    #012 - Philosophy in Organizations

    Does philosophy or philosophical work deserve attention in organizations? Or is there no inherent value in naming some of the inevitable work we all do in organizations, as philosophy?

    #011 - WTF is an Engineering Manager

    What does an Engineering Manager actually do?As it is a very common role in organizations, should it not be relatively easy to create a role description or role definition?In this episode we will at least try.

    #010 - Everything is Strategy...?

    Is everything strategy? No, everything is not strategy. But more than we traditionally believe. It is also easier than we think, but more complex than we want it to be.

    #009 - Insufficient Collaboration

    Still inspired by nomadology from the minds of Deleuze and Guattari, we set out on a conversation to explore the question - how do you set and express boundaries within which the war machine can move and operate freely while still living up to the state's demands for legibility, while also enabling and incentivizing collaboration?

    #008 - Agile Nomadology

    What ever happened to the agile revolution that was supposed to come? Or did it already happen and quietly got absorbed into normality for software development companies? In today's conversation, we are applying the lens of nomadology, a concept by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari to, perhaps, say that what happened to the agile movement with a capital A was completely natural.

    #006 - Goals and Feedback

    What is the difference between fedback and feed-forward? What separates a first order cybernetic system from a second order cybernetic system? And how is this connected to how we formulate goals, both personal and the goals we set in organizations? This is a public episode.

    #005 - Uncertainty and Predictability

    Predictability… what does it mean in complex environments with inherent uncertainty? Is it simple to achieve in enterprise software development organizations, as I claim? Is it an emergent property, as Marco says? Or is it both? This is a public episode.

    #004 - Leadership - part 2

    #003 - Leadership - part 1

    What is leadership? That is what we are trying to scrape the surface of in this conversation. As this turned out to be a long conversation it is split in two parts. In this part one we are mostly centered around the full range leadership model as a lens to view and understand leadership in organizations. This is a public episode.

    #002 - Agile

    Is Agile dead? If so, have we already started the transition to the next paradigm? Or, is Ashby’s law reason enough for agility to be immortal? That is what this episode of Complexity Cogitators is about. This is a public episode.

    #001 - Culture

    What is organizational culture? Is there a definition that clearly explains what you need to know? And in order to influence culture, what should you measure? Can you measure culture? That is what this inagural episode of Complexity Cogitators is about. This is a public episode.
