In dynamic, high-consequence domains such as aviation, space operations, and disaster response, successful coordination is about synchronizing interdependent work processes of humans and machines with each other and with physical processes in the work environment. Considering work dynamics and synchrony early in design can help ensure that mechanisms for coordination are designed intentionally. However, while descriptive models of human-machine interaction dynamics exist, there is a lack of tooling for designers to explore how the dynamic behavior of human-machine systems is affected by early design decisions.\n\nThis talk discusses Work Models that Compute (WMC), a computational work modeling framework that helps designers analyze dynamics and synchrony of human-machine systems early in design. By integrating functional modeling, work analysis, and graph theory, WMC makes explicit the relationships between human cognitive functions and machine algorithms, highlighting critical dependencies and coordination demands.\n\nDr. IJtsmaI will present two case studies, one in disaster robotics and one in air traffic management, to illustrate how computational work models can serve as exploratory tools for envisioning and shaping more effective human\u2013machine systems.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"145327-21897054@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/145327", "building_id":"1000429", "building_name":"Industrial and Operations Engineering Building", "campus_maps_id":"73", "room":"1680", "location_name":"Industrial and Operations Engineering Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Michigan Engineering","Industrial And Operations Engineering","Graduate Students","Graduate","899 Seminar Series"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Industrial & Operations Engineering", "group_id":"3301", "website":"http:\/\/ioe.engin.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_145327_original-2.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21897054 } , "137605-21880460": { "datetime_modified":"20250815T112350", "datetime_start":"20260226T150000", "datetime_end":"20260226T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-26", "date_end":"2026-02-26", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Positive Links Speaker Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Positive Links Speaker Series: The Science of Failing Well: How to Change Your Thinking to Lead (and Thrive) in an Uncertain World", "event_subtitle":"The Science of Failing Well: How to Change Your Thinking to Lead (and Thrive) in an Uncertain World", "event_type":"Livestream \/ Virtual", "event_type_id":"24", "description":"Positive Links Speaker Series: The Science of Failing Well: How to Change Your Thinking to Lead (and Thrive) in an Uncertain World\r\nAmy C.

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.\r\n\r\nAbout the talk: \r\nThis session explores a mindset shift that supports effective action in the face of uncertainty. This shift is well captured by the short phrase, \u201cthink like a scientist,\u201d offered as a deliberate contrast to thinking like a (command-and-control) manager. Classically, managers supplied answers and plans and evaluated how well others executed on them. In contrast, successful leaders of scientific labs offer direction and questions that empower action and help others make sense of data. This is not about being more lenient or laissez-faire, but rather about a new type of discipline. Their model provides an analog that leaders in any industry today can learn from. In short, today\u2019s leaders must abandon the discipline of control to embrace the discipline of learning. Key concepts covered include psychological safety, intelligent failure, and interpersonal skills for high-quality conversations. \r\n\r\nAbout Edmondson:\r\nAmy C.
