Every meeting of the core class has required me to update my own mental models for systems thinking. Just this last Monday, we were discussing agile project management methodologies and, while I am quite familiar with agile overall, I was given a whole new duality with which to think about project management: time-boxed versus scope-boxed. Knowing how to balance and leverage the differences between time-boxing and scope-boxing is a new angle that I believe would help many organizations think more clearly about efficient project management. We did not have the time to discuss this specific duality at length during the class, and it is just one example of the types of ideas that trigger my desire to dive deeper and do more research within the SDM curriculum.
