The crisis our society finds itself in is very much a crisis of knowledge; that is, a lack of knowledge about the complex world. Humanity 'simply' do not know what they do not know. This is true for the complexity of a nonlinear complex reality. Complexity is still taken for granted. Ignorance on complexity is still dominating our worldview. Complex organizations are trying to face the complexity of the world, but show at the same time their ignorance on the very complexity of complexity. Harnessing complexity is a hardy perennial for these complex organizations. They do not seem able to explore the very potential of complexity for their own organizations, in terms of fostering creativity and innovation. The only remedy for this is first to recognize their ignorance on the topic of complexity. To confront complexity you first need to become more knowledgeable about the very dynamics of complexity.
