It makes visible which reaction stage a person or team is currently stuck on.Systems Mapping arranges elements, relationships, and boundaries so a complex field becomes legible at a glance. The overview stabilizes the overall picture before detail work or steering begins.When a domain model and its associated contexts need to be thought through together, it creates a shared overview.
