Systems Thinking

I attach a map on systems thinking which I think comes from an article on Peter Senge which I read way back. This method is useful as it offers a way to improve one's cognitive and thinking skills. It provides a broader framework of thinking and understanding that is away from the self-centered model that usual happens in one's own thinking.

So it is a way to improve one mental processes similar to the work of Edward de Bono. But this new framework is much more helpful in resolving organization problems. It is also useful in project management because it takles issues that involve implementing change. Change not only in the processes or organization but also in the way one's thinks and addressess problems. Iam trying to finish an article on 'sense-making' which is another good tool that will prove useful soon.
