Profile
Roger Saner is an experienced web developer who found that complexity theory had a better account of how to make sense of “knotty” software projects than traditional goal and plan-based project management, specifically in contexts which are highly intertwined and interdependent.
Roger is currently completing his MPhil in Sustainable Development having completed his PGDip in Sustainable Development at the CST. His Master’s research explores the body as a site of knowledge production in relation to sustainability. He links the inner work of transformation with the outer work of the skilful transformation of systems. Roger’s research is not only theoretical but aims to incorporate practitioners of theatre, movement, breathwork, ocean swimming, somatic therapy, functional range conditioning, traditional healing, equine facilitated learning, forest bathing, acro yoga, and many more.
