The compass allows the user to dive into the idea of systems thinking and explore how interconnected everything is. It allows you to think big picture and explore the larger impacts of even small decisions. I found when doing the practice example myself, the use of arrows push me to think of more consequences/outcomes and pushed my thinking a lot more. If something I wrote didn’t have an arrow connecting it with something else I sat and kept thinking on it longer.knowing that it did have some connection with another part of the compass.
