It highlights key distinctions between complicated and complex systems, emphasizing why this matters in design, risk management, and stakeholder engagement. By embracing ambiguity, iterative learning, and multidisciplinary collaboration, engineers can design systems that are resilient and responsive to disruption. The results also underscore the vital role of human factors, including decision-making, cognition, and organizational behavior.
