EVERY SYSTEM CREATES A STORY.
Understanding systems enables us to think more holistically for better outcomes and quality of life.
To manage and change systems for the better, we need to first learn how the parts impact each other.
At The Global School for Systems Thinking (GSST), we focus on simplifying systems thinking tools and expanding capacity-building training for individuals and organisations.
WHAT IF WE TOLD YOU THERE'S A SMARTER WAY TO THINK?
Our 'Tiny Thinks Smarter' courses equip learners of all ages to create a systems mindset. Understanding systems help guide how we think, make decisions, and solve problems.
Through stories, we simplify systems research and provide tools that enable individuals and organisations to make sense of complex challenges and uncover high leverage solutions.

Our methodology enables learners to see patterns in complexity, and understand the most challenging problems in new ways.
Our suite of tools and frameworks benefit organisations of all sectors such as governance, education, and business.
