"Systems thinking is a discipline for seeing wholes. It is a framework for seeing interrelationships rather than things..."
About this EventStop Putting Band-Aids on Bullet Wounds: Master the Art of Systems Thinking
🧊 BrainTraining+ Series: Seeing the Whole SystemDoes this sound familiar?
Imagine a tech company facing slow project delivery. To fix it, management enforces mandatory overtime.
- Month 1: Productivity surges. Deadlines are met. High fives all around.
- Month 4: Key developers burn out and resign. The remaining team is demoralized. The code is riddled with bugs from the rush.
- The Result: Deadlines are missed worse than before, and the company has lost its best talent.
The "fix" broke the company because they treated a system like a simple checklist. They ignored the hidden connections between morale, retention, and quality.
If you are tired of solutions that create bigger problems down the road, this workshop is for you.
What’s In It For You?Most leaders are taught "Linear Thinking" ($A \rightarrow B$). But the real world is non-linear. In this LIVE BrainTraining+ session, you will stop reacting to symptoms and start controlling outcomes.
This isn't a dry academic lecture. It is a toolkit for sanity in a complex world.
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- 🔍 Solve Problems Permanently: Stop fighting the same fires every quarter. Use the Iceberg Model to drill past surface-level "events" and fix the root structure holding the problem in place.
- 🔮 Predict the Future: Learn to map Causal Loop Diagrams. You’ll be able to spot "Vicious Cycles" before they spiral out of control and see how today's "quick win" impacts next year's bottom line.
- 🛑 Avoid "Fixes That Fail": Recognize the specific patterns (Archetypes) that trap smart teams in stupid cycles—and learn exactly how to break them.
- 🚀 Find the "Leverage Point": Stop working harder. Learn to identify the one specific place in a system where a small shift creates massive, lasting results.
Is This Workshop for You?This is designed for the problem-solvers who feel "stuck" in complexity:
- For Leaders & Managers: Who want to improve team dynamics without accidentally causing burnout or resentment.
- For Product Managers: Who want to stop scope creep and technical debt from eating their roadmap alive.
- For Strategists: Who need to see the whole chessboard, not just the next move.
- For Anyone: Who feels like they are pushing a boulder up a hill, only to have it roll back down.
