Systems Thinking

This helps you map out complex problems by identifying all the players, their incentives, and how they interact. It's built around six frameworks from product leaders like Seth Godin and Will Larson, covering stocks and flows, second-order effects, and finding leverage points in systems. Use it when you're dealing with multi-stakeholder problems, platform ecosystems, or trying to understand what happens after your initial change ripples through. The approach is straightforward: map the system, trace the cascading effects, find where small changes create big impacts. It's honest about common mistakes like optimizing one part while breaking the whole, or missing the feedback loops that amplify your decisions in unexpected ways.
