Overview
What you will study
The Business Dynamics - MIT's Approach to Diagnosing and Solving Complex Business Problems course offered by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) provides an intensive, hands-on introduction to System Dynamics, a powerful framework for identifying, designing, and implementing high-leverage interventions for sustained success in complex systems. It has been used successfully in diverse industries and organizations, such as Airbus, Compaq, General Motors, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, and Merck. Developed at MIT more than fifty years ago by computer pioneer Jay Forrester, System Dynamics led to the creation of management flight simulators that allow managers to accelerate learning, experience the long-term side effects of decisions, and design structures and strategies for greater success.
