Dr. Russell L. Ackoff, Chairman of Interact, the Institute for Interactive Management, and Professor Emeritus at The Wharton School, and Dr. Deming agree that the managers of any enterprise--business, government, education, or community--need to understand the organization as a social system. The theory of a system is essential knowledge for managing a complex organization in the world of rapid change and uncertainty. Dr. Ackoff discusses synthesis as a necessary logic for understanding the behavior of a system and contrasts it with analysis, the traditional style of thinking. The discussion relates the educational system to the rest of society.
