“复杂性”通常被认为是最新的商业流行语-它反映了当前的普遍现实，但不是持久的现实。每当向全球运营公司的高管介绍复杂性概念时，他们的反应是：“是的，复杂性是我面临的真实的领导挑战。当其他一切都连接在一起时，我怎么能专注于我的领域？当一切都是相互依存的时候，我怎么能被追究责任呢？我该怎么解决这个问题？这是压倒性的。这些都是好问题，但答案很少。“复杂性”不仅仅是一个流行语，而是一个将持续存在的现实。因此，在提出一些公司已经找到的应对复杂性的答案之前，将首先考虑复杂性的起源和生成器。
‘Complexity’ is currently often considered the latest business buzzword – it reflects a current common reality, but not a lasting one. Whenever the complexity concept is introduced to executives in globally operating companies, the response is: ‘Yes, complexity is the real leadership challenge that I face. How can I focus on my area when everything else is connected? How can I be held accountable when everything is interdependent? How can I sort this out? It’s overwhelming.’ These are good questions with few answers. ‘Complexity’ is much more than a buzzword – rather a reality that is here to stay. Therefore the origin and generators of complexity will first be considered before presenting some of the answers that some companies have found to respond to complexity.
