Counterintuitive Behavior of Social Systems & Policy Resistance
• People seeking to solve a problem often make the problem worse.
• Examples: – Road building programs designed to reduce
congestion – Low tar and nicotine cigarette – Antibiotic resistance

Causes of Failed Interventions
• Tendency to interpret experience as a series of events

Limitations of Simple Systems
• Simple model often fail to include the critical feedbacks determining the dynamics of systems.
• All system dynamics arise from the interaction of just two types of feedback loops – Positive (reinforcing) – Negative (balancing)
![Page 30: Systems Thinking & The Building Blocks of Health Systems](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051513/547cb80cb4af9fc9158b51f3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“Causal Loop Diagrams”
• Quickly capturing the hypotheses about the causes of the dynamics.
• Eliciting and capturing the mental models of individuals or teams.
• Communicating the important feedbacks believed to be responsible for a problem.

Ø “System thinking” is popularized by Peter Senge as the the “fifth” discipline of learning organizations.
“Learning Organization”: 1. Building shared vision 2. Mental models 3. Team learning 4. Personal mastery 5. System thinking

Resources for Further Study
• System dynamics approach to organizational problem solving
• Emphasizing simulation models to understand issues such as fluctuating sales, market growth and stagnation, the reliability of forecasts and the rationality of business decision-making.
• Using modeling software from Vensim, ithink, and PowerSim.

Systems Thinking for Health Systems Strengthening: • What is systems thinking? • How can researchers and policy-makers
apply it? • How can we use this perspective to better
understand and exploit the synergies among interventions to strengthen health systems?
• How can systems thinking contribute to better evaluations of these system-level interventions?

Better understanding of: • Current demands for health services • Current supplies of healthcare services • Stakeholders in local healthcare markets • Incentives and disincentives in healthcare markets • Values of stakeholders in health systems Applications: • Strategic management of healthcare organization • Framework for “start-up” • Evaluation of healthcare organizational performance
Implications for HCM Practices
