Archetypes In Iamas

International Medical graduates (IMGs) study five to eight years in their country to become doctors. When they come to the Unites States, they often struggle with a new language and standardized tests. For this reason, many foreign doctors like myself, decide to explore alternative pathways into a healthcare career. Nevertheless, even if a foreign medical graduate speaks the language and passes all the test, there is still a 50% chance that they cannot advance their careers compared to the 94% chance Seniors in US medical schools have (Bailey, 2016). Both international medical graduates and US medical graduates learn the same conceptual information.

Use them with the other systems thinking tools that are available (Braun, 2002). As part of a suite of tools, they are extremely valuable in developing broad understandings about organizations and their environments, and contribute to more effectively understanding problems (Braun, 2002). “We don’t need better solutions, we need better thinking about problems (Braun,
