    This one-day workshop explores systems interactions in the real world, providing an introduction to the field of system dynamics. It also serves as a preview of the more in-depth coverage available in courses offered at MIT Sloan such as 15.871 Introduction to System Dynamics, 15.872 System Dynamics II, and 15.873 System Dynamics for Business and Policy.

    Big danger in this lies in making oversimplified models and mistakenly thinking they are accurate and that we can use them for central planning and policy building to control a system that is a lot more complex than we can model. Unintended consequences. Think climate models, e.g.

    Once told System Dynamics is one of those must-take course from MIT. Thanks for uploading

    I found the audio interesting. However, I find it very distracting when video seems to focus on people playing on their phones, cutting an already small piece of food/meat into an even smaller piece, pulled/redacted content, and female anatomy (intentional prank diagram/chart?). Definitely feels like open courseware. I guess that's all us peasants are allowed.

    To really be able to manage a supply chain, politics and psychology is probably more important than advanced mathematics. Having a more efficient supply chain is only going to maybe shave 2 to 5% off. But not knowing geopolitics and behavioural psychology could massively reduce your productivity when big events that you did not forsee hits you. That is what is going to bankrupt your company.

    I’m more fascinated at how everyone’s just dining during the lecture. MIT really is the greatest university ever. I don’t know why we don’t just incorporate lunch into classrooms it would probably improve GDP by 2%.

    We need more videos to this topics. Where are the other 2 hours?

    Proof that engineers do, in fact, know how to do everyone else's job better than they do.

    As a 76 year old long retired ISye this is an amazing memory for me. As an undergraduate in the late 1960's and earning my Bachelors degree in 1970, I can remember at least having some exposure to this back then. However, my career took a different turn and after graduation I served four years in the Air Force where I became very involved in computers and networks concluding as the Network Engineer and Security Officer for an organization that involved over 90K employees.

    Thanks for opening lectures for free. I really appreciated the explanation of the causality principle from a system-level point of view.

    Thought I was taking a break from the news, then I saw how this applies to everything. Very good.

    A great presentation of a complex set of concepts and notions.

    An insightful framework, even such a small loop model solved my problem and enhanced my understanding.
