Experimentation on a leash: How stakeholder influence shapes entrepreneurial experimentation across the venture lifecycle

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Prior studies have often conceptualized entrepreneurial experimentation as an activity over which founders exert a high amount of discretion in decision‐making. However, the locus of control over experimentation programs is dynamic, shifting with varying external stakeholder influence and venture growth. This paper proposes an

The Power Dynamical Dissolution of the Logical Problem of Evil and a Foundational “Substance” for Metaethics

Review of Ecumenical Studies
Abstract This paper aims to show that the traditional problem of evil can be logically dissolved by a more thorough analysis of what love (Agape, Eros, Philia) and evil actually are. When investigated this analysis reveals that they are manifestations and evaluations of power dynamical relations leading to a conclusion that it would ...

Modelling Suicide‐Related Communication Dynamics: A Socio‐Cybernetic Framework for Governance

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Suicide‐related phenomena (SPS) are often approached through individual‐level risk factors or moral framings, yet their population‐level dynamics depend critically on how ‘suicide’ becomes observable, circulates and is governed across functionally differentiated systems.

Systemic Management Education as an Adaptive Venture: 60‐Year Evolution of the St. Gallen Management Model

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Which methodological position is best for orientating higher education? This question is crucial for the design of pedagogical programmes. The issue is not always raised; hence, many offers in higher education are unsatisfactory: ill‐defined, concept‐less, inefficient.

Emergent Innovation in Systemic Programme Design: Retrospective Reflections on the Development of a Student‐Centred Masters in Systems Thinking

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our theory of education, based on a systemic understanding of the subjective and intersubjective construction of knowledge, is that students are motivated to study what is most meaningful to them. Meaningfulness is grounded in the students' prior experiences, which are highly diverse.

A Preliminary Exploratory Measurement Model for Systems Thinking in Defence and Aerospace Engineering: A Bifurcated Framework Developed via Multiple Correspondence Analysis

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.

Facilitating System Change With GOSR: Integrating AI and Human Collaboration

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Problem solving in complex domains requires approaches that encourage systems thinking, collaboration, and recognize multiple simultaneous solutions. Building from principles of General Systems Theory and existing problem structuring methods, we present a new method for supporting system partners working to address complex problems called GOSR.
