| Welcome
to this journal of
information about the breadth
and effectiveness of systems
thinking applications. Our
intent is to provide readers
with reflections on what we
are seeing, learning and discovering
as we go about our work. From
time to time we will also comment
on current events from a systemic
perspective.

The current economic crisis blindsided most lenders, borrowers, and regulators. Unless we fully understand and address the dynamics that led to the crisis, even further economic disruption is likely. Examine the systemic causes of the crisis and their implications for business and political leaders in “A Systems View of the Economic Crisis” in the
topical issues section of the AST Resource Library.

People often think of systems thinking as a strictly analytical approach to solving complex problems. However, solving complex organizational problems depends on the strong support of decision-makers to think and act differently. This in turn requires building a strong foundation for organizational change before applying the technical tools of systems thinking. You can learn more about how to build this foundation by going to “Building the Foundation for Change” in the leveraging change section of the AST Resource Library.
