Exciting Announcement: Publication in the Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics

I am thrilled to share our latest publication in the esteemed Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics, and Informatics. The paper, «Beyond Status Quo: Why is Transdisciplinary Communication Instrumental in Disruptive Innovation?,» is a collaborative effort with my distinguished colleague James Lipuma, Ph.D. It is an honor to contribute to this significant work (Lipuma & León, 2024a)

Paper Abstract:

In an era of rapid technological advancements and complex societal challenges, the imperative for disruptive innovation has never been more acute. The International Multi-Conference on Complexity, Informatics, and Cybernetics (IMCIC) 2024 serves as a confluence for thought leaders across the domains of Complexity, Informatics, and Cybernetics to explore the relationship between Transdisciplinary Communication (TDC) and disruptive innovation. This presentation highlights that TDC’s unique toolkit complements and is crucial in bridging diverse fields of study. TDC is essential for fostering innovation capable of transcending traditional boundaries and instigating profound systemic change. Drawing upon various collaborative frameworks, including collaborative, network, and cooperative models, this keynote delves into organizational, collaborative, and social innovation dynamics. It underscores the limitations of the status quo, where incremental change and reform fall short of achieving significant impact. Through a discourse about systemic innovation, the keynote discusses ways to produce desired outcomes that achieve measurable impacts with positive social change. TDC acts as a force multiplier for disruptive innovation initiatives, enabling a departure from conventional solutions and embracing holistic, system-wide transformations. Moreover, the presentation explores the pivotal role of identity and complete disclosure in the innovation process, advocating for an environment where diverse voices are heard and instrumental in shaping change direction. This keynote maps the journey from a passive attendee to a fully invested leader of change. It highlights the macrosystemic impact of fostering a culture where transdisciplinary communication catalyzes disruptive innovation and offers a roadmap for tackling global challenges through unprecedented collaboration and creativity.

Keywords: Transdisciplinary Communication in Innovation, Disruptive Innovation Strategies, Systemic Change through Collaboration, Collaborative Frameworks in Complexity Science, Cybernetics and Informatics Integration, Organizational Innovation Models, Social Innovation and Community Engagement, Identity Disclosure in Research Teams, Complexity Science Applications in Cybernetics, Transdisciplinary Approaches to Informatics
