Here are the slides for the talk on Systems Thinking that Niklas Bjornerstedt and I did in the Scotsman pub in Oslo yesterday. The point about "Your wife is very beautiful" is that it is very easy to read that in a static sense. To get a sense of reading it in a more dynamic (relative) sense, imagine if someone replies "compared to who?!"
The books mentioned in the talk are:
- The Systems Bible by John Gall
- The Secrets of Consulting by Jerry Weinberg
- Aesthetics of Change by Bradford Keeney
- Steps to an Ecology of Mind by Gregory Bateson
- The Principles of Production Development Flow by Donald Reinersten
- Slack by Tom DeMarco
- Quality Software Management: Volume 1 - Systems Thinking by Jerry Weinberg
- Freedom from Command and Control by John Seddon
The Law of Unintended Consequences slide has three images for these three stories:
