These two courses can be taken together or separately.

They are designed for more advanced practitioners and will cover:

  • Modelling complexity using variety balances
  • Organisational dynamics in VSM; 
  • Underlying systems principles and laws  in VSM; 
  • Using VSM with other systems approaches. 

If you don’t know how to design an organisation to deliver your strategy, or how structural change happens in organisations, how effective can you be in implementing your strategy? For senior managers and aspiring senior managers, the organisation is the principal tool at their disposal. So, understanding how organisations function as systems is a critically important skill. These courses will provide students with practical skills in using VSM to diagnose organisational issues and to design solutions.
