Toggle Labs

A Boutique Practice with Global Reach
Toggle Labs is built on on a simple belief:
we live in an interconnected web of reality.
Founded by Dr. Linda Booth Sweeney, everything we create --
from immersive leadership labs and strategy sessions
to visuals, books, and creative media --
is designed to help people see and work with the
patterns that connect and shape our lives.

Our Approach
Rooted in Dr. Linda Booth Sweeney’s research into how people understand and navigate complex systems, our work combines:
> Thinking made visible – so teams can see the connections, patterns, and dynamics at play
> Immersive learning experiences – that put systems thinking into action
> Language and strategies – that cut through complexity and invite collaboration

"Linda’s ability to turn complex systems theory into understandable, relevant concepts, and then bring them to life through practical and engaging activities, is a gift, and we were the beneficiaries."


Jill Riorden
Sr. Director Transformation, Org Strategy & Culture Nike
(former lead strategic HR Cargill)
“I loved working with Linda to expand our systems thinking capabilities! Linda’s system thinking session with our global business leaders brought systems thinking from an intellectual concept to a practical and critical competency in our leaders.”


Alisa Berger

Graduate School of Education,
Deeper Learning Dozen
"Not only do the participants rave about how much they learn and how much she pushes their thinking, but it is evident in the more thoughtful work they are able to produce afterwards. All educators, from every level of the system, should have a systems thinking orientation and Linda is able to provide an introduction to the ideas in a fun, provocative way that makes everyone want to learn more. I could not recommend her more highly as a workshop facilitator."


Jeri Eckhart Queenan
Senior Advisor,
The Bridgespan Group
"Linda helped us at Bridgespan think through "nonprofit starvation" as a systems issue with many component parts, contributing to recent progress published in the Chronicle of Philanthropy. A coalition of foundations and intermediaries played a key role, an insight that followed directly from Linda's work."
