Research
Research is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that understanding complex societal systems requires more than surface-level observation. It demands a careful study of structures, behaviors, and the ways people experience them in practice.
Our research combines academic rigor with practical relevance. We draw on psychology, sociology, governance, and related disciplines to build a deep, interdisciplinary foundation. At the same time, we connect these insights to the real world through interviews, stakeholder dialogues, and international comparison. This allows us to see how systems function in context and how they respond to change.
The value of our research lies not only in analysis but also in application. We publish findings that provide organizations with clarity, but we also embed research directly into evolving models and visualizations. These models make knowledge accessible and actionable, ensuring that leaders can use it to inform strategy, improve resilience, and strengthen collaboration.
Our ongoing projects range from national mental health systems to broader societal and organizational challenges. Each study contributes to a growing body of systemic intelligence that helps institutions see beyond immediate problems and work toward long-term solutions.
Research at Lychen is never static. As systems change, our work evolves with them—so that the knowledge we provide remains current, relevant, and useful for those who rely on it.
