Achieving a Systemic View of Things

As programmers and analysts, we have tremendous modelling skill. This session will explore how to use our modelling skill in domains outside of 'IT' - how to model worlds.

Our success is linked to how well we design conversation. This session will introduce conversation design as a viable basis for managing worlds.
