What is Systemic Modelling?

Systemic Modelling is all about getting a diverse group working at their best to achieve shared tasks - whether that's building a new product, co-creating a learning space, streamlining procurement or creating safe, happy communities. Using a mix of Clean Language and clean-nish questions, a handful of metaphors, and some easy-to-learn models, the group members develop a rough guide to themselves and one another. They can then use these guides to make the smallest adjustments necessary to work effectively and efficiently together, creating a shared sense of safety, belonging and freedom. 

Within a single Systemic Modelling session, the facilitator helps the group to create a network of intelligent attention around a relevant theme, learning from one another and making the most of the resources and strengths across the group.

Any of the Systemic Modelling tools can be taken on its own and brought into a team to enhance communication; you could take on clean feedback, introduce a couple of clean questions and do a clean set-up to prepare for meetings. Or you can invite a Systemic Modelling facilitator to come into your organisation and get the group to better understand themselves and one another. Or you can take the suite of tools as a whole and help your team to become a self-modelling system, able to detect drama and move from contempt to curiosity to collaboration.
