What can be done when our best intentions create unintended problems – such as temporary shelters increasing homelessness or food aid accelerating starvation ?
After decades of helping change makers in the nonprofit, public, and private sectors address tough social problems, systems-thinking expert David Stroh shares the pioneering framework that has sparked breakthrough and long-lasting change.
In Systems Thinking for Social Change Stroh uses detailed, real-world examples that explain how to avoid unintended consequences by clearly seeing how complex social systems operate, and then using that knowledge to break the cycles that hold back true progress through collaborative problem solving, choice making, and strategic planning.
This highly readable and accessible book will help change makers achieve the results they want in support of what society needs.
