Where merely complicated systems require mostly deduction and analysis (formal logic of breaking into parts), complexity requires inductive and abductive reasoning for diagnostics and synthesis (the informal logic of making new wholes of parts), [which in turn] implies a new intellectual culture that balances design and planning while evincing an appreciation for the dynamic flow of human factors and a bias toward perpetual learning and adapting.

It seems the Army has found design thinking and (I’m thinking) healthcare could use its efforts as a model to do the same. Convincing military folks of the value in inductive thinking, it seems, has been a challenge.
