Warren Kinston

The taxonomy architecture was discovered by specifying the universal elements of human activity that can come into consciousness in terms of their function, properties, relationships and dynamics. Structural regularities enable the prediction of as yet unspecified elements, much as occurred with the discovery of the periodic table of chemical elements. Although many parts of the Taxonomy are as yet unformulated, in 2012-2014, Kinston proposed an evolutionary basis for the discovered architecture.

In 2007, Kinston introduced THEE by invitation at the Global Organization Design Conference in Toronto, Canada. He then launched the THEE Online Project in 2008. The interactive website that went public in February 2011 makes new and emerging frameworks generally available.

In 1995, Kinston co-founded with Professor Mathew Vadas the ASX-listed biotech company, Bionomics Ltd (ASX: BNO) and in 2001, they co-founded the biotech company Cryptome Research Pty Ltd, which listed on the ASX as Cryptome Pharmaceuticals Ltd in 2003.

In 1980, Kinston joined the Brunel University's Institute of Organisation and Social Studies (BIOSS) under its Director, Prof. Elliott Jaques and contributed to the development of Jaques's levels of work theory. At Brunel, Kinston founded The SIGMA Centre, a research-based consulting firm that worked in various public and private organisations, most notably the National Health Service (NHS).

Kinston was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. He was educated at the University of Sydney where he completed science and medical degrees, which included neurophysiology research under Prof. P.O. Bishop. He moved to London to work at the Maudsley Hospital and obtained post-graduate qualifications in psychiatry from the University of London in 1974 and in psychoanalysis from the London Institute of Psychoanalysis in 1977.

Warren Kinston (born 16 May 1945) is an Australian scientist, doctor, psychoanalyst, management consultant, systems thinker and entrepreneur.
