What is the value of using a systems lens in community work?

In today’s archive episode, we are hearing from Bob and Jessica about solving issues in your community on a systems level, not just on a focused project level.  

It’s easy to get caught up in a silo, or to talk past each other. While hyperfocusing on one event or initiative in your community can have great results, it can also cut you off from system changes that have a greater impact on your community. 

So what can you do to help you and your community start thinking about the whole system? Jessica and Bob have some great places to start. 

Our From the Archive series is where we update and rerelease retired content that we feel is still relevant today.
