What is systems thinking?
Systems thinking is an approach that designers use to analyze problems in an appropriate context. By looking beyond apparent problems to consider a system as a whole, designers can expose root causes and avoid merely treating symptoms. They can then tackle deeper problems and be more likely to find effective solutions.
In the case of WeGoZero, Recraft uses mapping as a technique to lay out all current business operations, projects, desires to identify patterns and add different layers to show where the opportunities lay and to highlight key focus areas.
We then identify the right software tools to help organise the different processes, such as Hubspot for sales, Notion or Trello for project management, etc.
