Think and act systemically™

About Us


What kind of system do you want? 


We work together to design or redesign a future, strategy, plan, team, program, project, event, process, network, system, supply chain, organization, business venture, course, curriculum, or life. 


Our design intent is to encourage individual and organizational development through systemic thinking and action.  Simply, we help people think and act systemically.™  Our approach and methods are from a systems perspective.  They are grounded Critical systems practice (CSP) as articulated by Mike Jackson:

  1. Explore the problem situation.
  2. Produce an intervention strategy.
  3. Intervene flexibly.
  4. Check on progress.


While each individual and every organization are unique systems, they exhibit typical behavior patterns that can be understood and changed using one or more systems methods.  The behavior is in the system.  These methods manifest the systems principles and address the behavior patterns.  We generally use, adapt, or blend one or more methods in each engagement.  The methods we use include the following:

  • Appreciative Inquiry
  • Balanced Scorecard
  • Behavioral Economics
  • Business Analysis
  • Change Management
  • Critical Systems Practice
  • Design Thinking
  • Emotional Intelligence
  • Innovation Management
