Organizations The Potential for Transformation  - Exploration Session
Channel: Si Organizations
Date: 2023-04-21

Welcome to this workshop hosted by the Si Organizations Hub designed to facilitate a conversation around our newly published paper Organizations - The Potential for Transformation. We wish to open up the paper to co-creating it with our community, to host a conversation on these key topics and synthesis this into some key takeaways for you - and for us to add to the paper.

The position paper has been created to share a systems thinking perspective on the evolution of organizations in an age of complexity. The paper is crafted as a narrative to illuminate the broader changes taking place in the world, the challenges these changes are creating for existing organizational approaches, the kinds of changes we believe need to come about in management, and finally, a vision of what an approach to designing and managing organizations that thrive in our complex climate might look like.

This paper is the first in a series that aims to provide a suite of ideas and tools to help people apply systems thinking concepts toward creating better organizations through new operating approaches. Future sections will offer key complexity -inspired principles for strategy, methods, and tools.
