Gregg shows you that by recognising and understanding broader patterns of meaning, you can improve levels of engagement in your groups, breakdown/smash ‘silos’, improve collaboration, energise lateral thinking, and open doors to creativity. Based on his rich experience in systems design, Gregg argues that systems thinking is a skill that the most successful people in organisations share. He will demonstrate how everyone can learn to benefit from systems approaches, in all aspects of life.
