How Systems Thinking Enhances Systems Leadership

Hobbs, Catherine; Midgley, Gerald

Abstract

Systems leadership is only part of what is needed to deal with cross-cutting issues. Leaders need to be allowed to step back from the system they are in, think about what they are trying to achieve in relation to the bigger picture, and collaborate with a broad range of stakeholders. Doing this effectively requires systems thinking, which enhances systems leadership. This paper outlines some of the most useful systems thinking approaches.
