A system rarely changes because we push harder.
It changes when a new connection creates a path that wasnโt there before.

Maybe itโs about staying open long enough for new pathways to emerge.
Saddam was a dictator. But the "solution" to his regime unleashed a power vacuum & chaos that destabilized a region for decades. Complex systems have non-obvious equilibria. Interventions often have non-linear, destructive consequences. #Geopolitics #SystemsThinking
The โSwiss Cheese Modelโ was originally formally propounded by James T. Reason of the University of Manchester @manchester.ac.uk
He was also the person who first introduced the concept of a โJust Cultureโ in #SystemsThinking
I think I have one or two of his books, but the model is described ๐

Resilience is not simply keeping everything running. Under hostile action, some functions may need to stop, isolate, or degrade. The engineering task is to make that behaviour deliberate, predictable, and acceptable before an adversary chooses it for us.
