Based on the “Systemic Triage” framework developed from your sources (excluding Cynefin), here is the diagram illustrating the navigation paths.
This diagram replaces the Cynefin domains with distinctions drawn from Relational Biology (Rosen), Systems Methodologies (Jackson/Flood), and Hierarchy Theory (Allen/Simon).

Explanation of the Diagram Nodes
Phase 1: Pre-Diagnosis
Before categorization, the sources urge a specific mental preparation to avoid “Type Three Errors” (solving the wrong problem precisely).
• **Video Descriptions:**James Wilk advises removing all “mid-level abstractions” (like “culture” or “morale”) and listing only facts a video camera could record[1].
• **Empty the Tea Cup:**Robert Pirsig suggests using a slip system to offload data, clearing the mind to perceive “Quality” without the interference of old hypotheses[2].
• **Essential Selection:**TOG advises “mastering the art of ignoring variables” to prevent analysis paralysis[3].
Decision A: The Rosen Test (Mechanism vs. Organism)
Instead of Cynefin’s “Ordered,” we use Robert Rosen’s definition of systems.
• Yes (Mechanism): The system is “simple” or “trivial” because it can be fully simulated. It is decomposable. Tim Allen and Herb Simon support this view of “complicated” systems[4][5].
• No (Organism): The system has “non-computable models,” internal causal loops, or is “Living.” It cannot be decomposed without losing the essence[4].
Route 1: The Engineer (Optimization)
Context: Manufacturing, logistics, or mechanical design.
• Triz: Use dialectic logic to resolve contradictions entirely. Seek the “Ideal Final Result” (function without cost)[6].
• Theory of Constraints (Dettmer): Use “Logic Trees” to find the single “Archimedes Point” (constraint) and focus all resources there[7].
• Decomposition (Simon): Break the system into “boxes-within-boxes” and optimize the subsystems[8].
Decision B: The Stability Test (Runaway)
Before addressing social dynamics, we must ensure the system isn’t collapsing.
• **Runaway:**Gregory Bateson describes “runaway” as exponential change caused by maximizing variables (like profit or speed) which destroys the system’s flexibility[9].
• **Muddle:**TOG describes the “Muddle” as a state requiring structural clarity before analysis[10].
Route 4: The Stabilizer (Crisis)
Goal: Stop the collapse and regain the ability to think.
• Budget of Flexibility (Bateson): Stop maximizing. Push variables back to the middle of their tolerable limits to restore the system’s “uncommitted potentiality for change”[9].
• Strategic Nudges (TOG): Do not “boil the ocean.” Use minimalist interventions to stabilize the system[3].
• Filter Complexity (Wilk): Use binary “rule-out” questioning to logarithmically reduce the search space[11].
Decision C: The Jackson Test (Goal Agreement)
If the system is living and stable, we use Jackson and Flood’s “System of Systems Methodologies” (SOSM) to check for social consensus[12].
• Unitary: Stakeholders agree on the goal (e.g., “We need to survive”).
• Pluralist/Coercive: Stakeholders have conflicting values or power imbalances.
Route 2: The Ecologist (Adaptation)
Context: Unitary-Complex systems (Biology, Markets, Strategy).
• Viable System Model (Beer): Design for Requisite Variety. Balance the variety of the controller against the environment[13].
• Manage Context (Allen): Do not manage the parts (N−1); manage the context (N+1) and let the parts self-organize[14].
• Scalable Abduction (Boisot): Track “butterfly events” and weak signals rather than relying on prediction[15].
Route 3: The Diplomat (Negotiation)
Context: Pluralist-Complex systems (Policy, Boardrooms, Wicked Problems).
• Soft Systems Methodology (Checkland): Abandon “problems” and “solutions.” Map the conflicting Worldviews and find an “accommodation”[16].
• Problem Structuring (Eden): Use Cognitive Mapping to negotiate meaning and achieve “small wins”[17].
• Argumentation (Rittel): Treat planning as an argumentative process. There is no “true” answer, only “good enough”[18].
