Abstract | Grounded in the work of W. Edwards Deming, this article describes the basics of systems thinking, viewing a business as a system, and contrasts improving a system with solving a problem. The article uses the human body as a metaphor to describe the various aspects of viewing a business as a system at the concept level and maps the Deming cycle, the improvement model, and the human performance technology model to show their conceptual relationships. (Contains 6 figures.) (Author). |
