No claim is being made abour the superiority of SDD, even though there is substantial empirical evidence, from more than 1,000 applications in the arena, to this effect when dealing with the management of complexity.  SDD belongs to the Third Phase of science, and as a consequence it is meant to be complementary to other methodologies originating from First and Second phases of science.
I am attaching a power pont presentation of my colleague Dr. Tom Flanagan, made in 2008 to a group of World Bank emplyoees, that you might find informative regarding some of the attributes of the methodology.  It alos includes the description of three interesting cases of application.  Finally, if you would like to dig deeper ( I know you are a superb archaelogist of knowledge) please visit the link:

The idea is to:
1. Get to know each other and what everyone is doing
I am thinking of inviting everyone to have her's/his 5 minutes of fame by making a short TEDx-style presentation which will be video taped, answering a few questions like who s/he is is what s/he is doing, interests, dreams etc...
To be allowed to present they should submit a video 3 months ahead of time: to ensure that they are truly preparing for such a short but very rich presentation. Evey day a few people will be presenting... maybe at the start of the day
2. An SDDP on future features of cogniscope and cognicope clone software like we did the virtual 3 years ago but having in mind they developments until that point
This assumes that they have seen and studied all new software and features and submitted their three ideas before coming. This will ensure again that they come prepared with THREE important contributions on new features...
3. An SDDP on the challenges of scaling up and engaging thousands
4. Challenges on how to coordinate efforts to organise dozens if nit hundred of SDDPs and let know world wide know about our work..
These are just some preliminary thoughts...
7 days in Cyprus, 5 full working days is all we will have...
