    Article: Business Systems Review . Volume 2, Issue 2. 2013. Dominici G., Complexity and Action: Reflections on Decision Making and Cybernetics
    Gandolfo Dominici
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: This paper highlights some theoretical and epistemological reflections about the relevance of action for managerial studies. These reflections show how the cybernetic paradigm of complexity management can be used for better decision making that unites knowledge and action in a comprising, dynamic, and evolving approach. Cybernetics can help to overcome the fear of decision making in the face of uncertainty in complex scenarios, and can be an effective tool for improving the viability and competitiveness of firms in the twenty-first century.

    Article: Why Does Systems Thinking Matter?
    Gandolfo Dominici
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: The social and economic complexity of our times triggers intense transformations in the competitive logics of markets and, broadly speaking, of business systems. Business scenarios today are typified by dynamism, connectivity, nonlinearity, and emergent properties—in other words by “complexity”. Asserting that the world, and consequently business systems, are complex means that it is impossible to understand them by considering their individual elements separately, and that there is no option of predicting the future, but only of grasping and proactively influencing future scenarios. Reductionist models are unable to fully depict, or to allow us to deeply understand, new complex and dynamic business scenarios. Today more than ever, it is necessary to recognize the need for a paradigm shift that can carry science beyond the analytical reductionist approach, and towards a more comprehensive systemic perspective.

  • Book: Innovazione e imprenditorialità. Il ruolo degli spin-off universitari.
    Federica Palumbo, Gandolfo Dominici
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: Oggi il ruolo delle Università non si limita più soltanto alle tradizionali attività di formazione e di ricerca. La cosiddetta Seconda Rivoluzione Accademica ha attribuito alle Università una “terza missione”, che consiste nella valorizzazione e commercializzazione della conoscenza accedemica sul mercato. L’Università diviene così “entrepreneurial university” creando valore non solo in termini di conoscenza ma anche di innovazione e sviluppo economico. Il libro intende approfondire il ruolo che le Università rivestono nel processo di trasferimento di conoscenza innovativa al mercato tramite la costituzione di imprese spin-off. Viene evidenziato come, attraverso il supporto di apposite strutture definite "incubatori" universitari, l'università sia in grado di creare l'humus per dar vita a start-up innovative, in grado di competere e contribuire allo sviluppo economico.
