The aim of the In2:InThinking Network is to promote
study and awareness of individual and collective
thinking about sub-systems, psychology, variation,
knowledge, and their interactions - elements recognized
as the basis of W. Edwards Deming's “System
of Profound Knowledge (SoPK)".
The concept of “inThinking” derives
from “thinking about thinking”, where
thinking is defined as “a way of reasoning.”
InThinking invites an individual to learn to perceive
the patterns of interdependencies surrounding
him or her and to reason and judge with this insight.
Such a personal transformation of thinking builds
upon the foundation of Profound Knowledge to include
the theories of Russell Ackoff, Edward
de Bono, Peter Senge, Tom Johnson, and Genichi Taguchi, among many others.

Our Network efforts are enabled day-by-day, month-by-month, and year-by-year by civic-minded volunteers whose contributions include a passion for making a difference, coupled with ideas, time and energy. Together, we are working, learning, and thinking about how we can foster and inspire "better thinking for a better future" and what this effort enables individuals and organizations of all shapes and sizes to do differently.
Contributions to our Network also include financial support from our members, coupled with the proceeds of our annual Forum. Towards this end, please consider contributing a tax-deductible donation to the In2:InThinking Network, which is charted as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Your donation can be towards our general fund (to support the website and newsletter), or towards scholarships and financial assistance of future attendees of our annual Forum.
