Stephany Peterson
Along her path to PhD candidacy focusing on complexity, integration and implementation
through a disposition of interdisciplinarity, Stephany earned her BA Honours with
Distinction and MA Valedictorian. Her methodology fosters expressions of culture and
identity as the vehicles for paradigmatic transformation in ever-changing and emergent
environments. By disrupting space, place, and time, she holds those for the historically
excluded to become part of our complex global society of meaning making for an emerging
future. In this approach, underlying narratives become visible, and we recognize diversity
as the strength of complex systems. Furthermore, the necessary reaction that is the
process of knowledge implementation becomes the focus through relevant expertise
common to any complex problem. Stephany stewards collaborations and has travelled to
50 countries on four continents for collaborating with relevant experts to tackle the most
intractable problems we face as a global society: beyond symptoms and systems to a more
comprehensive whole. She has modelled Tetrahedron for a relational model of knowledge
from theory to policy to practice through the not for profit she founded for the purpose.
