Complex Systems and Decision Making

Coevolution is the elegantly simple idea that entities evolve together in an intricate dance that changes each and all forever. Since 1991, the emergence of Organizations and the Natural Environment Division (ONE) in the Academy, the advancement of scholarly ONE research, and the emergence of sustainability-based curricula in universities have coevolved. This process has opened the door for the widespread development and dissemination of sustainability-based management curricula that teach managers how to account for the greater society and ecosystem in their decisions and actions.
