      Planet Earth works the same way: Global warming is the fever, mankind is the virus. We're making our planet sick. A cull is our only hope. If we don't reduce our population ourselves, there's only one of two ways this can go: The host kills the virus, or the virus kills the host...unless we revise the systems.

    Sir.. Loved the way you described the system's thinking.. This should be taught in the homes, schools and workplaces. A must to be practiced before moving to solve new problems .

    I love how this is presented. My question is, how will one come to a solution by considering so many aspects that complicate the issue ? If a decision maker can see that all today's solutions are tomorrow's problem, how will one ever implement a solution?

    • @probrickgamer
      @probrickgamer 2 роки тому +1

      Unless you can create a solution with no negative consequences, you shouldn't implement one

    • @stevewoodsmall6819
      @stevewoodsmall6819 2 роки тому +4

      The point is that we need to understand the implications of our decisions to ensure they don’t create problems down the road

    • @stevewoodsmall6819
      @stevewoodsmall6819 Рік тому +2

      The point is that we have to anticipate the potential for today solutions to become tomorrow’s problems and plan accordingly

    • @counterpoint9260
      @counterpoint9260 7 місяців тому

      the point is I guess to implement a 'solution' that minimizes damage, by considering all angles and interdependence, easier said than done

    How about implementing a systems thinking curriculum into the public schooling system that has been broken down into subjects and is creating knowledge conformity? Project-based learning is an approach where students gravitate to knowledge development aligned to their interests and talents. When projects are focused on local community issues the youth-expert dialogue creates new systems thinking approaches and cultivates solid community building where youth are fully engaged to be a voice of their future!

    The lesson from COVID and systems thinking - that masking and lockdowns don't work only creating bigger and unintended problems/consequences

  • @emd2837
    @emd2837 2 роки тому +1

    related: it be great if this guy or someone would do a simple run down like this to ill-posed problems. Imo ill-posed problems are another framing of systems thinking.
    with an ill-posed problem/question
    You ask a question or pose a problem
    gather data
    and come to a conclusion supported by the data which is still false
    the problem does not answer the solution it answers a different question that is either unforeseen, unrecognized, or prematurely ruled out.
    generally abstracting another level you get cherry picking (different because of it’s intentionality)

    the solution you want is not necessarily the solution you need moreover it is even less likely to be a solution to your problem

    I would love to hear him discuss his ideas as far as the rest of the pandemic and how it rolled out and measures up to 2023. He only seem to mention masks and social distancing, which is all we knew at the time at that point, there wasn’t studies about, the benefits of getting your vitamin D up above 50 ng/mL seems like personal health and vitality is also part of the system.

    Important subject well presented but the political overtones take away from an otherwise good presentation

    • @stevewoodsmall6819
      @stevewoodsmall6819 2 роки тому

      What political overtones? This is about a systems approach using the pandemic as an example of what to do or not to do.

    Good intentions to popularize Systems Thinking. But failed at oversimplification. Giving only examples that fits the law.

    the talk woud have been better had he illustrated on how a country used systems thinking to arrive at an optimal solution to tackle COVID..its easy to say 'use systems thinking', but we need to see practical applications of it ona large scale and see how much resources it consume
