About this title

Synopsis

Recent years have seen the introduction of concepts from the new and exciting field of complexity science that have captivated the attention of economists, sociologists, engineers, businesspeople, and many others. These include tipping points, the sociological term used to describe moments when unique or rare phenomena become more commonplace; the wisdom of crowds, the argument that certain types of groups harness information and make decisions in more effective ways than individuals; six degrees of separation, the idea that it takes no more than six steps to find some form of connection between two random individuals; and emergence, the idea that new properties, processes, and structures can emerge unexpectedly from complex systems.

Store Description

Through our mission we enhance the dignity and quality of life for individuals and families by strengthening communities, eliminating barriers to opportunity, and helping people in need reach their full potential through learning and the power of work. We intentionally serve marginalized populations within these communities and lift up long-term pathways for individuals who have disabilities and disadvantages, veterans and military families, teens and young adults, and others who face barriers to employment. We are guided by three principles: Inspired by People, Power of the Whole, and Results Matter. We call it The Goodwill Way.
