Sensemaking is a research area that focuses on how individuals and groups create meaning out of complex and ambiguous situations. It seeks to understand how people make sense of new information, events, and experiences, and how they use this understanding to navigate and solve problems in their personal and professional lives. Sensemaking involves the act of interpreting and organizing information, filling in gaps in knowledge, and developing shared understanding within social groups. It encompasses cognitive processes, social interactions, and cultural influences on how meaning is constructed and negotiated in different contexts. Research in sensemaking explores how individuals actively engage in sensemaking processes, the strategies they use to make sense of new information, and the impact of sensemaking on decision making and problem solving.
