A system thinking perspective looks for certain patterns of structure that recur again andagain. Senge refers to these patterns as “systems archetypes”. Senge has identified eight system archetypes that occur across a broad spectrum of life, including biology, economics, political science, family therapy and management. Senge argues that mastering the system archetypes puts an organization on the path of system thinking. When you think about your company what are 3 of the most common system archetypes that you experience. Identify each archetype, define it and describe how you’ve experienced it. Also, discuss what potential solutions to stop this pattern from reoccurring and what the outcome would be if this archetype no longer existed
