When I work with people who understand various parts of a system, I find that together we can create models that empower us to make better decisions.
Working with a system, with a full appreciation of its complexity, allows us to intervene effectively and continuously, to steer it along better, more sustainable courses over the long term.
Complex systems are always adapting to changes in their component parts, and the world around them.
This means that we need to maintain relationships with them, constantly learning and improving our interventions, as they change.
So, working with a system, with a full appreciation of its dynamics, allows us to steer it towards more sustainable paths in which its momentum is naturally aligned with our desired outcomes.
