Abstract:
As the challenges addressed in leadership education become increasingly complex, it is essential to develop and employ new skills and tools which help individuals and groups make sense of the complexity. In this paper, we introduce system dynamics as a lens for leadership education stakeholders to understand and navigate complex problems and systems. Then, we demonstrate two practical entry points into system dynamics practice. Through thick description and an example case study, we conclude by describing how to use and facilitate rich pictures and causal loop diagrams to make sense of complex problems.
