Publisher's Synopsis
Do you want to understand the roles of thinking in systems and how they affect, hinder, or aid in fulfilling your life? Do you want to increase your thinking skills and build effective mental models?
Just as every node on a network contributes to the final result, every action of a member of a particular organizational system contributes to the outcome. Without a broad view of interconnectedness, our problem-solving skills are limited and short-sighted, and our abilities to make long-term, beneficial decisions are hampered. If we only look to the immediate and the superficial, we forget that we rely on the smallest of parts. If we don't acknowledge our interdependence's complexity, then we are doomed to replicate a system that will ultimately fail.
Awareness of our interconnectedness is key to solving the biggest and most complex problems we face in contemporary society
