SUMMARY:STEP-UP In Person Training: Systems Thinking for RSE/dRTP
DESCRIPTION:Why does some (research) software not gain traction\, even when it’s technically excellent? Often\, the answer lies beyond the software itself. Factors such as users’ existing workflows\, available training\, incentives\, organisational culture\, and competing priorities can all influence whether a tool is adopted. The same is true for many other challenges: Why are good data management practices not consistently followed\, or why do researchers continue to rely on inefficient processes despite the availability of better alternatives? Looking beyond the technical aspects can reveal the broader factors shaping behaviour. \nThis interactive workshop introduces systems thinking through practical exercises\, real-world examples\, and group discussion. Together\, we’ll explore how people\, processes\, and technology interact\, and how small changes can help create better outcomes for projects\, teams\, and stakeholders. \nThroughout the workshop\, you’ll have the opportunity to map systems relevant to your own work and learn approaches for finding effective interventions that go beyond quick fixes. Whether you’re trying to improve software adoption\, strengthen collaboration\, or increase the impact of your work\, systems thinking can help you identify both the wider factors shaping projects outcomes and opportunities for meaningful change. \nSchedule\n\n12:30 – 13:30 Lunch\n13:30 – 15:00 Workshop part I: Introduction to systems thinking\n15:00 – 15:30 Coffee break\n15:30 – 17:00 Workshop part II: Hands-on activities\n\nAudience\nWe are tailoring the workshop to research technical professionals\, but anyone with an interest in systems thinking and understanding of research workflows and research culture is welcome to attend. No prior knowledge of systems thinking is required.
