System Thinking is a discipline for seeing wholes. It is a framework for seeing interrelationships rather than things, for seeing patterns of change rather than seeing static "snapshots."
- Peter M. Senge, The Fifth Discipline
Motivation, why this training?
In today's fast-paced and interconnected world, solving complex problems requires more than a linear approach. Systems thinking provides the tools to understand the big picture, uncover hidden relationships, and recognize the root causes of problematic situations. In combination with Systems Modelling, you can visualize these interactions, simulate different scenarios, and identify long-term dynamics.
In addition, Systems Modeling with others helps you overcome your cognitive biases, reflect on personal assumptions, and identify and avoid local optimization. This technique allows you to collaboratively make better decisions that all decision-makers can still support afterward.
Description
This one-day immersive workshop will introduce you to the fundamentals of Systems Thinking and Systems Modeling. It will provide practical techniques for analyzing and improving any system, whether in business, technology, or everyday life. You'll learn to see the connections, identify leverage points, and create models that help you to make smarter decisions.
Who Should Attend: This course is ideal for professionals, leaders, project managers, and innovators who are ready to think beyond the surface and gain deeper insights into the systems they work in. No prior experience is needed—just bring your curiosity and willingness to see things from a new perspective!
All participants will receive a certificate of attendance after the workshop.
