Applied systems thinking approach – Tools and methods guide
This is a “how to” guide for a range of systems tools and methods which support the activities described in the Applied Systems Thinking Approach guide. The tools included within this guide are by no means an exhaustive list, but rather an introduction into some of the more commonly used systems thinking tools. The guide will also signpost learners to other quality assured resources.
A core aim of this programme is to apply and integrate your learning into the work of your Public Services Board (PSB). When you use these tools and methods with your PSB and supporting teams, you are likely to need to tailor to your local context, bring in subject experts, and engage with other stakeholders including local communities.
These tools and methods may also be useful when considering evaluation and measurement of change in systems.
