Systems Thinking: Lessons From The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook by Senge, Kleiker, Roberts, Ross and Smith
After mental models comes systems thinking.
I’m very excited to share a brand spanking new deck with the world today. Amy Rae and I have summed up our thoughts on a second discipline from Peter M. Senge’s five guiding disciplines for learning organizations: Systems Thinking. If you missed our first deck on Mental Models, you can find it here.
Why should you care about systems thinking, or systems for that matter? Because systems are everywhere. If we understand them a little bit better, we’ll understand the world, and by extension ourselves, a little bit better. This is especially important to anyone who’s tasked making decisions – any decision you make will be more smarter, better and have more longevity if you know how to read your surroundings.
Why do we care? Because any great systems thinker is a great strategist.
