Why can complex problems benefit from a system's approach?

Ian Heptinstall and Bill Dettmer on Solving Complex Problems

 

Ian Heptinstall asks Bill Dettmer "Why can complex problems benefit from a system approach?"

According to Bill, when you identify a system, along with its boundaries, you know what is inside the system and what is outside. You are better prepared to determine if a problem falls under your influence or if it is something you have to work on because you have no influence. Without a systematic approach, you can waste a tremendous amount of time because you don't have an organized and structured method to reduce complexity.
