Assignment:

Can you please discuss a time you have used systems thinking to solve a problem (a specific time from your own experience)? Also, discuss how your example meets my definition of systems thinking (below). (You provided an example but not a personal experience and one taken from another source).

How I understand systems thinking:

Systems are dynamic. Parts of a system are interconnected that leads to the emergence of something different than the individual parts. For example, 1+1 = 3 not 2. Systems are regulated by feedback loops that help guide a system in generating a particular response.

Systems thinking requires us to look at things in a holistic and integrated manner. It requires us to realize that a change in one part of the system does not only change that part it also changes the causality of the entire system.
