Areas of expertise
Systems Thinking and Dynamics
The iceberg model is a classic illustration of how the hidden factors of a given issue could be a lot deeper and bigger than those on the surface. What this notorious model does not capture is the fact that this plethora of semi-hidden factors are interconnected and interdependent. This is the core feature of complexity. There are many tools that can help to understand complexity such as systems thinking and system dynamics modelling. In SHOR, we have a strong in-house expertise in systems thinking with a track record of using this method in solving problems for some fortune 500 companies. In addition, our extended network has experts, scientists and researchers in the domain of system dynamics who are specialised in the application of the method in multidisciplinary fashion and in various domains.
Decision Making and Behavioral Analysis
Making good decisions is a core feature of successful leaders and organisations. Decision making is seldom a straightforward process, and decision outcomes are beyond the limits of simple binary measurements. At SHOR, we believe that good quality decisions are the product of thoughtful and data-driven processes. We are qualified to help leaders and organisations build decision making processes and analysis mechanisms that facilitate efficient and impact oriented choices. However, since processes alone cannot guarantee desired outcomes, we focus on the human factor in decision making by introducing capacity building opportunities covering cutting edge research in decision science.
Constant change is probably the only unchangeable fact about reality. Technology, communication and global connectedness make change faster and increasingly uncertain. Successful leaders and growing organisations need to adapt to fast change and build in place a robust mechanism for decision making about unknown issues, uncertain outcomes and reaching moving targets.
