About SCiO

SCiO is a community of systems practitioners who believe that traditional approaches to running organisations are responsible for many of the problems we see today. We believe that systemic approaches to designing and running organisations offer radically new and better alternatives.

SCiO has three main objectives:

• Developing practice in applying systems ideas to a range of organisational issues
• Disseminating the use of systems approaches in dealing with organisational issues
• Supporting practitioners in their professional practice.

Many systems practitioners can feel isolated in their organisations. SCiO provides a way to talk to and get support from a wide range of like minded people and see how they are addressing similar challenges.

SCiO is a non-profit and social enterprise - SCiO started in the UK, but there are now groups throughout Europe. Please visit our website for further details and sign-up to become a member: http://www.systemspractice.org/
