N2 - Systems thinking is as a general description for a wide range of phenomena rather than a specific concept. In the business arena, for example, managers and engineers at all levels need strategic and holistic vision. Systems thinking is useful on all levels of the organization. Recently, we are witnessing a new system thinking research area- research approaches to identify the capabilities of systems thinking professionals, including their cognitive characteristics, and personal abilities. The study defined the aspects that impact the reinforcement of systems thinking among students and graduates of technology management [17]. Quantitative and qualitative methods are implemented: A survey for evaluating the systems thinking competence, The MBTI questionnaire and managers estimate. The study shows that systems thinking is a blending of acquired and innate skills. It can be developed through learning, training, and experience. Systems thinking is a measurable and consistent personality trait which may be used to distinguish between individuals.
