The Next Next Common Sense systems that enable navigation, meaning-making, and recognition that work with the grain of complexity rather than against it. PMaerat s4u: rIemmpel ne mt ( eCnht aapt itoenr s a1n3 d- 1 5 ) Part 4 provides the roadmap and metrics for implementing coherence in complex environments. Chapter 13 outlines five essential steps for creating coherence: identifying yourself and your goals, using the right language, creating the right context, turning people loose while getting out of the way, and implementing communication that works. Chapter 14 addresses the challenge of measuring complexity mastery, offering ap- proaches that match the nature of complex systems rather than imposing inappropriate metrics. Chapter 15 explores the leadership capabilities required for creating coherence in complex environments, from evolved mindsets to specific practices that enable distributed yet aligned action. These chapters transform the principles and approaches from earlier sections into actionable implementation paths, providing both the steps for creating coherence and the means to assess progress toward complex- ity mastery. Part 5: Future Horizons (Chapters 16-17) Part 5 explores the emerging complexity frontiers that organizations must navigate and the characteristics of organizations designed to thrive amid these challenges. Chapter 16 examines specific frontiers from AI and climate adaptation to demographic transformation and ecosystem busi- ness models, revealing both challenges and opportunities on the horizon. Chapter 17 outlines the characteristics of the coherent organization of tomorrow—from distributed intelligence and permeable boundaries to dynamic stability and collaborative technology integration—providing a vision of what organizations might become when designed specifically for complexity.
