Multisolving

Join us as we discuss the world of systems thinking with Beth Sawin author of "Multisolving: Creating Systems Change in a Fractured World." Far from being an abstract academic concept, multisolving offers a practical framework that reveals how seemingly separate challenges—from climate change to public health to economic development—can be addressed simultaneously with thoughtfully designed interventions. Beth takes complex systems theories and makes them accessible through everyday examples. She explains how filling a bathtub helps us understand housing shortages, and how our body"s response to thirst demonstrates the power of balancing feedback loops. These relatable analogies unlock a powerful way of seeing the world that planners, community leaders, and change-makers can immediately apply to their work. Whether you"re a seasoned systems thinker or completely new to these concepts, this episode will transform how you approach complex problems and help you discover multisolving opportunities hiding in plain sight.  Show Notes:To help support the show, pick up a copy of the book through our Amazon Affiliates page at https://amzn.to/4i0SwIV or even better, get a copy through your local bookstore!Further Reading: From What Is to What If by Rob HopkinsThe Equitably Resilient City by Zachary Lamb and Lawrence ValeLearn more at The Multisolving Institute where Beth worksTo view the show transcripts, click on the episode at https://bookedonplanning.buzzsprout.com/ Follow us on social media for more content related to each episode: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/booked-on-planning/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BookedPlanning Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bookedonplanning Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bookedonplanning/
