In This Workshop
In today’s business environment, we are facing more disruption than ever before — often navigating multiple, overlapping challenges. The list of disruptive forces is both familiar and daunting: health crises, inflation, digital transformation, climate change, social shifts, and unstable geopolitics, among many others.
Navigating these crises requires a new way of thinking. Systems thinking is a powerful tool that helps individuals and organizations untangle these complex challenges, build collaborative relationships, and recognize high-impact opportunities for long-term growth. As a leader in any industry, using a systems lens will unlock new perspectives and help you see creative solutions to the wicked problems you face at work.
On Wednesday, April 5, join The Ivey Academy in Calgary for an interactive workshop facilitated by Tima Bansal, Ivey Business School Professor and Founder of Innovation North. You’ll engage with other leaders to map out the disruptions impacting your business, define the strategic opportunities they create, and use your organization’s purpose to guide effective, sustainable decision-making.
Topics covered include:
- The fundamentals of systems thinking
- How to apply systems thinking to complex problems
- Why systems thinking leads to better outcomes in turbulent times
- Practical examples of systems thinking in action
Whether you are new to systems thinking or an experienced practitioner, this event will provide valuable insights and techniques to help you confidently tackle key challenges for your organization.
The event will be held at the Ampersand in downtown Calgary. Breakfast and refreshments will be provided. Space is limited, so please register as soon as possible to secure your spot.
