Systems Thinking Systems Leading PART ONE
Manage episode 345858076 series 3007068
"As projects become more complex, their success or failure is increasingly determined by the interactions between new and pre-existing natural, built and digital systems, and the critical role of people in making these interactions work. As such, project outputs should not be viewed in isolation but as part of a system of systems".
In the first of this Two-Part podcast, based on the Major Project Association seminar "Systems Thinking, Systems Leading", Andy Murray interviews Mark Wild, ex-CEO of Crossrail and now Chief Executive at SGN and Michele Dix, previously Head of Crossrail 2, and now a Non-Executive Director at the Association.
In a wide-ranging conversation, they discuss
- the role of the 'systems leader'; someone who needs to build a relationship with the ecosystem of major project
- the value of systems thinking in complex projects and programmes
- systems leading at Crossrail
- the need to balance curiosity and reflection with speed of delivery
- the nature of decision-making under conditions of uncertainty.
