This book develops the systemic thinking paradigm, and introduces practical guidelines for the deployment of a systemic thinking approach.Topics in Safety, Risk, Reliability and Quality,1566-0443 ;26Computational complexityQuality controlReliabilityIndustrial safetyBusinessManagement scienceSocial sciencesComplexityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11022Quality Control, Reliability, Safety and Riskhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22032Business and Management, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/500000Social Sciences, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X00000Computational complexity.Quality control.Reliability.Industrial safety.Business.Management science.Social sciences.Complexity.Quality Control, Reliability, Safety and Risk.Business and Management, general.Social Sciences, general.003Hester Patrick Tauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut447834Adams Kevin MacGauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299740603321Systemic Thinking2039098UNINA
