Thanks James, very interesting.
I was particularly interested in the partial parallels between the model Team 1 propose and Beer's Viable System model - it might be interesting to try to map the two to see if that produces any further useful insights - and in the worldviews discussion and questionnaire in Team 5's report.
Best wishes
Hillary
