How can we better understand our role as part of a living system? How can HR-specialists use this understanding in their work?

What
As part of the JHL Institute’s Development Training Program, the HR-specialists from around Finland learnt in this Embodied Systems Thinking workshop about systems thinking and how systems view can help their work in HR.
