Dealing with complexity and ambiguity : learning to solve problems which defy solution / Colonel Randall Wakelam.: D12-4/4-2010E-PDF

"The first part of the paper reviews two major reforms to the Canadian Forces and to Professional Military Education (PME) in Canada. The first of these reforms was the complete reconceptualization of the profession of arms and its education needs in the late 1960s, when the Canadian navy, army, and air force were unified by an act of Parliament. The second case examines reform which began in 1993 and continues to occur as much from professional introspection as from the end of the end of the Cold War, which was itself a major catalyst for PME reform"--p. 1.
