Organizational systems thinking is a holistic approach to understanding and managing an organization by recognizing the complex network of interconnected elements at play, internally and externally. This impactful technique enables people to predict the consequences of a potential change. Organizational systems thinking leads to enhanced decision making, improved problem solving and identifying root causes, increased cross-functional collaboration, leadership development, and greater adaptability by considering the bigger picture.

This eight-week series introduces participants to organizational systems thinking. Using current concepts and models to examine their own organizations and projects, participants will develop capacities to perceive, understand and facilitate change in public health organizations. This training is supported, in part, by the Public Health Infrastructure Grant, and is currently available at a reduced cost. The price is $400 per person. Registration will close on April 1, 2025, or when capacity is reached.
