Holistic Development is the ‘development of wholes’. It is a development paradigm that recognizes that any complete system is made up of self-contained sub-systems that interact with each other to create balance in the main system as well as its parts
It recognizes that any system is more than merely the sum of its parts and that a problem in one sub-system is rarely an isolated issue as other parts of the system in trying to maintain balance would have started adjustments. This means that solving the original problem alone is unlikely to restore the whole system to its optimal balance.
Holistic development consultancy is a consulting service that considers the whole organization or system (its people, processes, financing, subsystems, strategy, leadership and culture) and their subtle inter-relationships to achieve optimum results rather than merely addressing the apparently troubled sub-system, process, function or department alone. It recognizes that even when all sub-systems are healthy if that necessary interaction between them is unhealthy, sub-optimal or non-existent the whole will be much less than the sum of its parts.

Very simply, a system is a collection of parts (or subsystems) integrated to accomplish an overall goal (a system of people is an organization). Systems have input, processes, outputs and outcomes, with ongoing feedback among these various parts. If one part of the system is removed, the nature of the system is changed. Systems range from very simple to very complex. There are numerous types of systems. For example, there are biological systems (the heart, etc.), mechanical systems (thermostat, etc.), human/mechanical systems (riding a bicycle, etc.), ecological systems (predator/prey, etc.), and social systems (groups, supply and demand, friendship, etc.).
Complex systems, such as social systems, are comprised of numerous subsystems, as well. These subsystems are arranged in hierarchies, and integrated to accomplish the overall goal of the overall system. Each subsystem has its own boundaries of sorts, and includes various inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes geared to accomplish an overall goal for the subsystem.
A pile of sand is not a system. If one removes a sand particle, you've still got a pile of sand. However, a functioning car is a system. Remove the carburetor and you've no longer got a working car.
The effect of this systems theory in management is that writers, educators, consultants, etc. are helping managers to look at organizations from a broader perspective. Systems theory has brought a new perspective for managers to interpret patterns and events in their organizations. In the past, managers typically took one part and focused on that. Then they moved all attention to another part. The problem was that an organization could, e.g., have wonderful departments that operate well by themselves but don't integrate well together. Consequently, the organization suffers as a whole.
Systems thinking is a way of helping a person to view the world, including its organizations, from a broad perspective that includes structures, patterns and events, rather than just the events themselves. This broad view helps one to identify the real causes of issues and know where to work to address them.
