Kia ora, Namaskaram 🙏🏾
I built a Systems Thinking Coach with GPT to help you see the living web of relationships.
You're invited to get coached with three frameworks.
It does what good systems thinkers do: helps you zoom out, see interdependencies, and understand the living webs of relationships that shape behaviour.
Prompt cards guiding the conversation:
Iceberg Model: from events to patterns to structures to mental models
Leverage Points: where small shifts create big change
Stakeholder Mapping: the social, cultural, political, and emotional web
The coach speaks in the curious, playful voice of Oliver Sacks. It asks clarifying questions, offers metaphors, and reflects back what you might be missing, without oversimplifying.
It welcomes ambiguity. It honours complexity. And it helps you see the whole.
