Practical Systems Thinking (eBook, PDF) von Kamran Eftekhari Shahroudi; Steven Conrad; Jill Speece; Kirk Reinholtz; Martin "Trae" Span; Sarwat Chappell; Quentin Saulter; Golam M Bokhtier

This book provides a practical and rewarding path for early to mid-career professionals of all disciplines (STEM and non-STEM) to develop the intentional mental practice of Systems Thinking together with Rigorous Methods that improve the way we view, contemplate, approach and deal with complex challenges. It teaches a concise and easy to follow set of practice-derived generic Systems Principles that offer a superior alternative to the linear compartmentalized thinking that unfortunately dominates our industry, education, language, and culture today. The book has 3 main parts: Part I introduces...
