Systemic View and Systems Thinking

Kaj U. Koskinen

Chapter 3 in Autopoietic Knowledge Systems in Project-Based Companies, 2010, pp 13-33 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract A systemic view of organizations is trans-disciplinary and integrative. This view transcends the perspectives of individual disciplines, integrating them on the basis of a common ‘code’, that is, on the basis of the formal apparatus provided by systems theory (e.g. Bell and Morse, 1999). The systemic view gives primacy to the interrelationships, rather than to the elements of a system. It is from these dynamic interrelationships that new properties of the system emerge.
