System Dynamics for Business and Strategy

System Dynamics for Business and Strategy

Business is one of the largest and most valuable domains where system dynamics can make a big impact.

  • …the most important business challenges are about how to improve performance over time
  • …the business systems that drive performance are complex and inter-dependent
  • no other method can address these challenges

System dynamics can tackle operational or strategic issues

  • …can answer one-time questions or provide a continuing plan
  • …can deliver answers for any type of organisation, of any size, at any level

It can be used by internal management, consultants, analysts and investors

“Strategy Dynamics” is simply a translation of system dynamics into business, in terms
business people can understand and exploit.

At the International System Dynamics Conference held in Boston, MA, 17-21 July 2005,
Kim Warren, our founding Director, was awarded the Jay W. Forrester Prize for his first book
“Competitive Strategy Dynamics”. Find out more and view presentaions…
