Systems thinking is great but he way we reason about organizations and systems in a pretty medieval way. Most systems are described in a simple way: box and line charts which are just voodoo. We need to develop a algebraic notation for how to represent the various configurations/states of an organization, along with its operations. With a notation, you can describe what you “feel” and share the knowledge and improve on it. You can also define the organizations desired state and track your progress. You can plop a new manager in it and they will know what to do. You can also do basic engineering like pick a configuration that has the desired cost, throughout and latency that you need. |
