SOD3 Systems-oriented relations and systems in the public and private sector
The majority of problem areas relate to systems that represent both public administration and the private sector, whether in the form of regulations and guidelines and/or users, suppliers and other systems. The public and private spheres are becoming increasingly closely related; therefore, it is crucial for designers to have an understanding of the different systems, including how they connect to and influence each other while simultaneously limiting opportunities for choosing solutions.
In this module, we study various systems and their relationships from a systems-oriented design perspective. This inquiry is, in turn, linked to strategy work.
- Increased understanding of different systems and dominant logic
- Experience with applying various tools to analyse relationships within and between systems
- Ability to use systemic thinking as an important basis for strategy development
- Competence in employing systems-oriented design as a tool for organisational design
The module includes two seminars and a final presentation of the relationship map.
- Seminar I – AHO in Oslo: Understanding systems and various logics in public administration, business and industry (e.g. ‘money talks’).
- Seminar II – digital via Zoom: Utilizing relationship exercises and techniques for understanding and influencing relationships in systems
An updated reading list will be available at the time of admission.
