Beyond Systems ThinkingTo deal with the current global polycrisis, we need cultural and mental transformation. This MOOC is the second of four MOOCs that hybridize science, design and transformative praxis. This joint learning journey is a fluid, intervention-driven, synergistic process addressing complex challenges with regional focus. It entails a critical look at systems thinking, tools to view complexity from above, basics of social network analysis, resilience assessment, circularities, and systemic innovation.

Some thoughts on systems coaching

Alice Evans

Jun 28

When I entered the world of funding and systems and complexity in 2013 by joining a charitable foundation in the newly created role of Director of Systems Change, the experience was daunting and overwhelming. The job title was confusing, expectations were high, and no one – let alone the new director – knew where to begin. But the experience was also delightfully humbling and enabled me to learn from and become inspired by a wonderful array of systems thinkers, coaches, and other wonderful folk.

Integrative Design for Systems ChangeWHAT IS THIS?OverviewIf you’re thinking about using design in the social sector, this collection will help you get started with learning about core methodologies, stories from practitioners’ in the field, and a couple activities that you can apply towards your own work. If you’re curious to learn even more in depth, check out the d.school’s Designing for Social Systems program page.

A Systemic RecoveryNew economic thinking and acting through a systemic approach could outline policy alternatives to tackle the global-scale systemic challenges of financial, economic, social and environmental emergencies, and help steer our recovery out of the current crisis. A systemic recovery requires an economic approach that balances several factors – markets and states, efficiency and resilience, growth and sustainability, national and global stability, short-term emergency measures and long-term structural change. To achieve this, we need to think beyond our policy silos, comprehend our interconnections, and build resilience into our systems.Less26 Oct 2022 127 pages Englishhttps://doi.org/10.1787/62830370-en 9789264690684 (EPUB) 9789264962859 (PDF) 9789264654563 (HTML)Author(s): OECD Editors: William Hynes, Igor Linkov and Patrick Love

Not the first time I’ve posted this, but by way of tribute to this excellent group (and particularly Mikael Seppala), since I’ve just plucked up the courage to dive back into their Slack after several weeks away and the next… 20 or so… posts will be from that direction (particularly Mikael). Open to members outside Finland, highly recommended.

Also recommended, their event https://www.systemschange.fi/openspace/ – which is Converge & Emerge 2, 24 November 2022 (despite the fact that the 2021 event is showing up on the image below for me) – take a look.

November 14 (the third Monday of the month, dodging Thanksgiving) is the 105th meeting for Systems Thinking Ontario. The registration is at https://finding-leverage.eventbrite.ca .

Finding Leverage: Toward a modern theory of leverage in systemic design

Designing for leverage follows from identifying the most powerful opportunities for innovation in systems change. Leverage theory has a history, particularly with a prominent chapter by Donella Meadows on ‘Leverage Points: Places to Intervene in a System‘. Amongst the recent developments in designing for leverage, there are some challenges in presumptions and misunderstandings. A modern theory of leverage in systemic design can address these challenges.

Extending a presentation from RSD11 on “Leverage Is Fractal, Relative… And What Else? We need a theory of leverage in systemic design”, Ryan Murphy welcomes discussion from Systems Thinking Ontario participants.

Ryan J. A. Murphy is an instructor and doctoral candidate at Memorial University Faculty of Business Administration. He is an alumnus of the master’s program in Strategic Foresight & Innovation from OCADU.
