Abstract:This paper offers a framework of transition management for managing complex societal systems. The main focus of this paper is to articulate the relationship between transition management and complex systems theory. Understanding the dynamics of complex, adaptive systems gives a clearer view on the opportunities, limitations, and conditions under which it's possible to influence such systems. Transition management is established on key beliefs of complex systems theory, and it involves a cyclical process of phases at numerous scale levels.
