The system thinking can be explained as the collection of interrelated and interdependent parts put together to achieve the goal of the organization.

The system approach of the organization broadens the complexity and the view of organization in terms of social system and adaptive systems. The organization system thinking constitutes of the various independent autonomous entities and members which have a common objective and this causes mutual and shared interactions. Complex adaptability systems are described by key characteristics which are in by of surfacing self-organizing (Robert, 2010, p.34).
