| Summary: | "Using the broken UK housing sector as a case study, Mike Siebert applies a Systems Thinking approach to tackling some of the Wicked Problems faced by an industry that urgently needs to boost its productivity levels, build more sustainably, more affordably, and generally improve its working practices. His central aim is to show how, if a Systems Thinking approach were to be applied to the UK housing industry's problems, many of them could be resolved to the benefit of all the parties involved: government, housebuilders, material suppliers, the warranty industry, the design industry, and the so often ignored end users.
