Why You Keep Solving the WRONG Problems | Systems Thinking Explained

Описание: You don't see the world as it is. You see the world as YOU are.

This single idea—that perception shapes reality—is the foundation of everything in systems thinking that actually matters. And until you understand it, you'll keep solving the wrong problems.

In this video, I explore:
Why systems thinking is fundamentally about understanding how we perceive
The feedback loop between your paradigm, what you see, and the world you create
Why the "rational observer" is a myth (and what cognitive science tells us instead)
Metacognition: the skill of thinking about thinking
How to shift from ego-system to eco-system awareness
The first step toward real systems change

📚 KEY CONCEPTS COVERED:
→ Reflexivity in perception
→ David Bohm's insight on thought creating problems
→ Otto Scharmer's Theory U and consciousness transformation
→ Churchman's systems approach through perspective-taking
→ Metacognitive skills for better thinking

📖 ABOUT SEEING THE SYSTEM:
Yassine Sellami explores the hidden structures behind leadership, change, geopolitics, and personal growth through the lens of systems thinking. Drawing from experience at Apple, IKEA, and Dell, and ongoing doctoral research at Drexel University, each video helps you move from reacting to truly seeing the system.
