Abstract: The rugged and changing landscape in which organizations, organisms and nations exist necessitates development of a competitive edge to persevere. Success in evolutionary, social and/or economic terms depends on the strategies employed to compete in a complex environment.

The second day of the meeting includes structured break-out sessions designed to help attendees apply the theoretical principles of strategic thinking to their different scenarios.
