Systems Intelligence - Influential Work

Influential Work

Systems intelligence follows from the research conducted by Peter Senge in the field of systems thinking. Other works strongly referred to in the SI research are authors ranging from Howard Gardner to Herbert A. Simon to Marcial Losada. The following research areas have influenced and been referred to in the SI research:

  • systems theory and systems thinking
  • neuroanatomy of human mind
  • positive psychology and cognitive psychology
  • operations research and applied mathematics
  • creative problem solving and heuristics
  • bounded rationality

One notable influence comes from action research, which basically means research done inside the research objective, on a continuous basis, learning from one's action.

Famous quotes containing the words influential and/or work:

    In the learned journal, in the influential newspaper, I discern no form; only some irresponsible shadow; oftener some monied corporation, or some dangler, who hopes, in the mask and robes of his paragraph, to pass for somebody. But through every clause and part of speech of the right book I meet the eyes of the most determined men; his force and terror inundate every word: the commas and dashes are alive; so that the writing is athletic and nimble,—can go far and live long.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Know that it is good to work. Work with love and think of liking it when you do it.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
