Ruth — of systems & design
For the Monday, June 1 #PapersInSystems discussion, we will visit some of the systems-supporting practices that folk in our community have used or developed to support the socio-technical systems work we do. We will discuss:
- Container Differences Exchanges Model, which @donaldegray has used with organizations and Don will lead the discussion
- Decision KP Maps, created by @roundcrisis and discussion will be led by Andrea

Then a shift again for another very special #PapersInSystems meetup:
🥁 Monday, September 28 at 1pm-2pm Eastern Time
@testobsessed and @joeltosi will present a chapter of their book "Signals and Levers" which will be published on September 22.
We'll post the signup page when we have the link to the chapter.
But exciting things in the pipe, and you can preorder the book at
https://bookshop.org/p/books/signals-levers-systems-thinking-tools-to-unblock-software-delivery-elisabeth-hendrickson/bf2d9d17012f909f (where it is cheaper than from amazon 🎉)

- Decision KP Maps: https://www.roundcrisis.com/2026/02/04/making-of-a-decision-5/
And participants will have an opportunity to share other canvases/models/maps/etc. that we find useful in supporting socio-technical teams and system design.
