Systems Thinking for a Turbulent World will help practitioners in
any field of change engage more effectively in transformative
innovation. Such innovation addresses the paradigm shift needed to
meet the diverse unfolding global challenges facing us today, often
summed up as the Anthropocene. Fragmentation of local and global
societies is escalating, and this is aggravating vicious cycles. To
heal the rifts, we need to reintroduce the human element into our
understandings - whether the context is civic or scientific - and
strengthen truth-seeking in decision-making. Aided by appropriate
concepts and methods, this healing will enable a switch from
reaction to anticipation, even in the face of discontinuous change
and high uncertainty. The outcome is to privilege the positive
human skills for collaborative navigation through uncertainty over
the disjointed rationality of mechanism and artificial
intelligence, which increasingly alienates us. The reader in search
of new ways of thinking will be introduced to concepts new to
systems thinking that integrate systems thinking and futures
thinking. The concept of anticipatory present moment (APM) serves
as a basis for learning the cognitive skills that better enable
navigation through turbulent times. A key personal and team
practice is participative repatterning, which is the basis for
transformative innovation. This practice is aided by new methods of
visual facilitation. The reader is guided through the unfolding of
the ideas and practices with a narrative based on the metaphor of
search portrayed in the tradition of ox herding, found in
traditional Far Eastern consciousness practice.
