The whole of Module1 (PeopleCare) of this course, as well as the Integral focus in itself is about acknowledging that we need to understand the inner as much as the outer systems' functioning if we are going to design anything useful or effective.   And certainly give them equal importance in our thinking & designing.

However obvious this might seem to some of us, the fact that we're in a period of history where this 'inner world' is actually thought of as something separate from the 'outer world' is a significant indicator to how far we have to go yet.
