We watched this video today with our undergrad students to help them better understand the power of simple rules in complex systems. These birds are following three simple rules: (1) don’t get too close to each other, (2) don’t get too far from each other, and (3) head in the same direction as your neighbors. Strategic Doing is a collection of 10 simple rules. These rules can help you design and guide complex collaborations. Connect with us to learn more.
