A Theory of a System for Educators and Managers,
Vol. 21
 Deming
and Dr. Russell Ackoff, formerly Silberberg Professor of Systems
Sciences and Dean of the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania,
discuss the nature of systems and systems thinking. Systems theory
is essential knowledge for managing an organization in a world
of change and uncertainty. In the video, Dr. Ackoff discusses
synthesis as a necessary logic for understanding why a system
behaves the way it does. He contrasts synthesis with analysis,
which is useful for understanding how an organization and its
units operate. Analysis is synonymous with thinking in the traditions
of Western cultures.
