Emergent Practice
Expected Results:
1. As we are validating client ideas
continuously we’re capable to identify
and eliminate waste quickly;
2. When failing is inevitable the impact is
small
3. The client feels part of the
process

3) Creating Self-organisation (artificial emergence)
“The history of emergence has entered a new phase
in the past few years, one that should prove to be more
revolutionary than the two phases before it."
Let’s create
Emergence!
