  1. A System is a whole, consisting of parts, each of

    which can affect its behaviour or its properties. System:
  2. A System is a whole, consisting of parts, each of

    which can affect its properties or its behaviour. Each of those parts is dependent on other parts to affect those properties or behaviours. System:
  3. A context in which cause and effect can only be

    perceived in retrospect, not in advance. Complexity:
  4. A System that is unpredictable, at least in practice, because

    of the type of interactions between parts or the sheer number of them. Complex System:
  5. A Complex System that is extremely adaptable to changes in

    its environment Complex Adaptive System:
  6. Opposite of fragile. Something that benefits from shocks such as

    volatility, randomness, disorder and stressors. Beyond robust and resilient. Antifragile
