Sonja Blignaut is a complexity expert. That might not sound relevant to incident response in reliability engineering. But it is!
Our systems are becoming more complex and so are the resulting incidents.
Learning about complexity can help reliability folk go into an incident with less anxiety, which we’ll explore in this episode.
We'll explore the causes of complexity in incidents and how the Cynefin framework classifies incidents.
We'll also deep dive into the concept of complexity itself and dispel a common issue where it gets mixed up with complicatedness.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
