Leverage points in systems

Small changes in the right places can produce large systemic effects. Leverage points are the places in a system where intervention produces disproportionate results — where a modest redesign of a single element shifts the behavior of the entire system. Donella Meadows identified a hierarchy of leverage points ranging from parameters (weakest) to paradigms (strongest). Most organizational change efforts focus on low-leverage interventions (adjusting numbers, rearranging structures) when high-leverage interventions (changing information flows, modifying feedback loops, shifting goals) would produce far greater impact.
