Systems Thinking has been called a theoretical orientation, a philosophy that guides our clinical and research activities, and even a way we see the world around us. If this is true, are some people "natural systems thinkers" who can understand the concepts, terminology, and applications easier than others? I am interested in introducing system thinking across the curricula in higher education and your comments are appreciated.
There are difficulties in the dissemination and application of research on system approaches and I am interested in introducing systems thinking across as many curricular areas in higher education as I can. I also realize people have barriers to understanding what it is and how to apply it. My own journey to become a Systems Thinker almost ended shortly before it began; until I found my "Systems Mentor." That is why I wrote two articles on the topic. Any responses will be appreciated.
