The current body of literature lacks studies related to organizational managers' classification of systems thinking (ST) skills based on both their overall systemic tendency and the organizational ownership structure. The purpose of this study is to assess and classify the ST skills of senior managers who currently work in a complex business environment. Initially, we clustered managers' overall systemic thinking (OST) using the Bayesian latent class analysis (BLCA) method into two distinct clusters: managers with upper OST (holistic thinker) and managers with lower OST (reductionist thinker). Further, we classified managers' ST skills into two predefined classes to understand the characteristics of each group better. A total of 51 senior managers from two different organizational structures participated in this study. Results show that the ST skills of managers in public are more towards the upper OST/holistic cluster, whereas managers from the private sector have an inclination towards lower OST/reductionist cluster.

基于不同组织所有制结构的管理者个体系统思维能力分类

目前的文献缺乏与组织经理基于其整体系统趋势和组织所有权结构的系统思维（ST）技能分类相关的研究。本研究的目的是对目前在复杂商业环境中工作的高级管理人员的 ST 技能进行评估和分类。最初，我们使用贝叶斯潜在类别分析 (BLCA) 方法将管理者的整体系统思维 (OST) 聚类为两个不同的集群：OST 较高的管理者（整体思考者）和 OST 较低的管理者（还原主义思考者）。此外，我们将经理的 ST 技能分为两个预定义的类别，以更好地了解每个组的特征。共有来自两个不同组织结构的 51 名高级管理人员参与了这项研究。
