Systems Thinking: Managing Chaos
and Complexity

by Jamshid Gharajedaghi

Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann, 1999

Systems Thinking: Managing Chaos and Complexity, with a practical orientation and yet a profound theoretical depth, goes beyond the simple declaration of the desirability of systems thinking. It operationally deals with the art of simplifying complexity, managing interdependency, and understanding choice using a novel scheme called iterative design.

Jamshid Gharajedaghi, President and CEO of INTERACT, has more than twenty-five years of experience with the practice of systems methodology in design and the development of business architecture, planning, learning, and control systems. His work has taken him into corporations and government agencies around the world for both private and public concerns. Mr. Gharajedaghi was formerly the Director of The Busch Center and Adjunct Professor of Systems Sciences at The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. He began his career with IBM's World Trade Center Corporation where he served as a Senior Systems Engineer. He left IBM to become CEO of the Industrial Management Institute.
