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.

Systems Thinking Ontario – 2022-11-14

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.

A good thread with various thoughts about why ‘this sort of book’ is so special (especially to certain types of people – ‘type of guy who…’ in some parts of twitter speak).

I added a few books to the list (which has significant overlap wth Lisa McNulty’s PostRat reading list https://stream.syscoi.com/2021/10/08/lisa-mcnulty-postrat-reading-list-zotero/ ), the concept of ‘threshold concepts’ (linked here before), and in response to @kanjun saying: I see these as attempts to begin formalizing very early fields. In lieu of experimental results, simple models serve as intuition pumps for future experiment design. @michael_nielsen & I felt this way in our metascience essay—we use metaphors but no math.

…I said: Very astute, that. The partial formation of a field, when it’s amorphous but real – before it’s formalised and constrained.
