The Climate Leader is an introductory training series in systems thinking to help fuel the global response to climate change. These materials
will help you to be more effective at addressing climate change by enabling you to see the interconnections and big picture in your work.
This online course is based on the same tools and approaches we use at Climate Interactive to help you become more effective in designing
strategy, seeing the big picture, and creating change.
Behind the Climate Leader are decades of experience from the team at Climate Interactive and powerful ideas developed at MIT. Our cutting edge
tools have been helping people see what works to respond to climate change. We’ve helped students, business leaders, activists, and UN
negotiators determine the choices that will put us on a pathway to a healthy climate. We bring our background in systems thinking and modeling
nonlinear relationships to our work, and now to you.

“The systems-thinking lens allows us to reclaim our intuition about whole systems and hone our abilities to understand parts, see
interconnectedness, ask "what-if" questions about possible future behaviors, and be creative and courageous about system redesign.”
