Hi! I’m Teun Sluijs, a vibrant all-round Systems Thinking professional.
I have a versatile track record of successfully leading the processes of multiple governmental and privately funded projects, as well as coaching and mentoring MSc and PhD students in Systems Thinking.
Holding a MSc. & MPhil. in System Dynamics I have collaborated across domains as water, health, robot safety, mobility & many more – allowing me to develop a deep understanding of how interconnected elements influence outcomes.
Home base is Amsterdam, the world is my office. I’m eager to team up for innovative collaborations around the world that challenge the limits of Systems Thinking.

Why Systems Thinking?

Communication Medium
Systemic maps make it easier for teams to understand complex issues by providing a clear visual framework, helping teams align and discuss solutions more effectively.

Holistic Transparency
Systems Thinking reveals the hidden structures in complex situations, making it easier to see how everything is linked and affects the outcome.

Strategy Steering
Systems Thinking makes it easier to navigate tricky problems. Setting up a framework or dashboard helps you see challenges ahead and take advantage of chances, leading to smarter choices.
