Theory of Constraints / Bottleneck Analysis
“Accelerating economic, technological, social, and environmental
changes challenge managers and citizens to learn at increasing rates. Yet learning in
such environments is diffi cult precisely because we never confront many of the consequences of our most important decisions. Eff ective learning requires us to become system thinkers. We must develop the ability to represent and assess dynamic complexity-and practical tools we can use to accelerate learning throughout organizations.”
Professor John Sterman | MIT | Sloan School of Management
Pendaran has combined the System Dynamics developed at MIT by Professor Jay Forrester and Professor John Sterman’s business dynamics modeling with work of other leading systems thinkers such as Russell Ackoff to provide a practical approach to understanding this dynamic complexity. Our team’s many decades of experience bring these topics to life.
We off er three System Thinking courses, each with increasing levels of detail and intensity. Those are:
1-Day Introduction to Systems Thinking
2-Day Executive Systems Thinking
5-Day Systems Thinking
All classes are conducted as workshops with hands-on simulations including the production and distribution supply chain “Beer Game” and other scenario simulations.
Participants begin to gain a much better appreciation for the importance of seeing the total system, whether their organization, community or world. Relevant discussion around the big picture, cause and eff ect and optimization of the whole vs. the parts brings participants to a new level of understanding of their own systems and the impact that they, as individuals, have in those systems.
