That definition from google is not wrong, but they sure did word it in a difficult way.
It literally means looking at the whole picture -- "whole-istic" would be a misspelling, but makes the meaning more clear. See all parts of a system as a pieces of a bigger entity, and recognize that what impacts one part will impact the whole.
