Whether you are a CEO or cab driver, quantum mechanic or auto mechanic, preschooler or PhD, Remedial Genius reveals the principles we humans use to create knowledge, to think, to learn, and to generate new ideas and innovations. Through entertaining stories and a layman's descriptions, Cabrera gives us a dynamic model for thinking and learning. Cabrera's string of educational and professional bumbles – both tragic and humorous – read in stark contrast to his simple insight into the elemental structure of knowledge. For corporations who want to understand the atomic elements of the learning organization; for professionals, teachers, and students who want to reclaim their genius; for scientists who need a model to deal with complexity; for parents who want to build their child's inherent genius; Remedial Genius offers the mental model we’ll all need to prosper in the coming Knowledge Age.

Systems thinking can help us solve everyday and wicked problems, increase our personal effectiveness as human beings, and transform our organizations. This book is for anyone interested in learning the foundational ideas of systems thinking. SIMPLE RULES OF SYSTEMS THINKING Systems Thinking Made Simple doesn't mean that we're going to oversimplify it like a ... for Dummies book. It means that we will show how systems thinking emerges when we focus on a simple set of rules. After years of searching for unifying principles, many experts and practitioners in the field of systems thinking have embraced DSRP as universal to all systems thinking methods. Originally a complex mathematical formulation, DSRP has since been made more accessible through powerful modeling and visualization tools. There are two surprising things about our new understanding of systems thinking. First is how simple the four rules are: DISTINCTIONS RULE: Any idea or thing can be distinguished from the other ideas or things it is with SYSTEMS RULE: Any idea or thing can be split into parts or lumped into a whole RELATIONSHIP RULE: Any idea or thing can relate to other things or ideas PERSPECTIVES RULE: Any thing or idea can be the point or the view of a perspective

Systems Thinking Made Simple: New Hope for Solving Wicked Problems

This research set out to clarify the construct of systems thinking and to define it as a conceptual framework apart from systems science, systems theory, systems methods, and other perceived synonyms. Greater clarity in the systems thinking construct will assist any one of the many current implementation efforts in which systems thinking is being applied in both scientific disciplines and practical fields. The ambiguities of the systems thinking construct are central to the challenges people face in understanding and implementing systems thinking. The research reveals four universal patterns of thinking that make up the core pillars of systems thinking.
