This is a Level Three Program, which requires Level One competencies. Although it is derived from Step 5 of our Strategic Decision Making model, it does not require prior knowledge of SDM. 

 

Systems thinking is process of seeing the drivers in a system and the interconnection of these drivers. By mapping these out, users can take a step back and see the overall connections of drivers and identify the centres of gravity, the key sphere of influence that will lead to a holistic solution.
