Change how you think about design?

Right now, you look at an app or a website and see screens, colors, words, boxes, cards.

Gives me a totally new perspective on my work, and adds to the range of skills that we as content designers already need to have…as AI creeps into our work, Systems Thinking also seems like a radical and relevant need. It's something that an LLM can't understand – but a content designer can.

Sr. Content Designer @ Ebay

Dave is not only an expert at what he does, but even more importantly he can break down the complex concepts and ideas around systems thinking in ways that make them less daunting to start applying to my everyday work. And he communicates it all in a very unassuming, personable and let's-nerd-out-together way.

Made by humans, for humans

No AI slop. We write each and every single lesson the old-fashioned way, with our hard-won experience, brains, and hearts, to make it feel like a story instead of a bunch of fancy, disconnected thoughts.

Complex, made simple

Most systems thinking courses, books, and so on is like learning calculus when you need simple division and multiplication. Our priority is helping people level up using simple language, humor, and narrative rather than abstract academic, insider lingo.

Practical tools and frameworks

Learning something cool and then applying it are two different things. Not only do we do our best to take complex ideas and make them simple, we prioritize making them practical so that you can walk away with something you can use, not just something you can know.
