Making sense of the complexity in our lives has become one of the major challenges of the 21st century. This book addresses the challenge through a 'co-design' approach to collective thinking and acting. Co-design emerges as a way to make sense, make meaning and make things happen in the face of complexity. It encompasses a way of thinking, acting, - and crucially - a way of relating, in the world around us. The approach is about working with rather than acting on or for.Co-design embraces the complexity of the world, with its open adaptive systems and (semi-)permeable boundaries. It invites practitioners from many contexts, whether in business, education, or healthcare, to think about complexity and change in different ways. It offers ideas with transformative potential for work and life. Whether thinking from the perspective of customer, patient, manager, designer, student, employee - co-design creates places for conversation and participation, leading to more humane and fulfilling forms of practice. Readers of the book will grasp the main ideas and concepts of co-design and have an opportunity to reflect on what it means for their own practice. The book will be an invaluable guide and companion for practitioners wanting to navigate complexity in new ways.
