This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: abcd + ideas for social enterprise, Idealization: Formulating the Mess ???? Systems analysis is a detailed description of the current state of the organization and its environment. It formally defines the system and the environment (e.g., stakeholders, competitors, and others such as government) 23 under which the organization operates, as well as its formal and informal structure and organization, current policies, strategies, practices and tactics., Ends Planning Ends planning entails specifying the ends to be pursued. This is accomplished through three subsets of activities: idealized design, design of management systems, and organizational design. ???? An idealized design is a conception of the system that its designers would like to have right now., Idealization: Formulating the Mess ???? The combination of system and obstruction analyses and reference projections makes up a reference scenario that best reveals the mess that an 24 organization is in. For a scenario to be effective, it should be well written interesting, provocative and even shocking, yet believable., Idealization: Formulating the Mess ???? Obstruction analysis is the identification and definition of the obstructions to organizational development. Discrepancies and conflicts in the organization are identified as those that obstruct an organization’s development. Discrepancies may involve organizational ends, the means employed to pursue these ends, the resources available for such pursuits, the way these pursuits are organized, managed and carried out, and external stakeholders and other aspects of the environment., Means Planning Means planning involves the selecting or creating the means by which the specified ends are to be pursued. In this phase, ways of approximating the desirable future are invented ???? Resource Planning Resource Planning entails the determination of what resources will be required, 28 when they will be required, and how to obtain those that will not otherwise be available. Resources are of four types: inputs (e.g., materials, supplies, energy and services), facilities and equipment, personnel, and money., MULTIPLE STARTING POINTS, MULTIPLE STARTING POINTS, Ends Planning Ends planning entails specifying the ends to be pursued. This is accomplished through three subsets of activities: idealized design, design of management systems, and organizational design. ???? (1) technological feasibility, which means that the design must not incorporate any technology that is not currently known to be usable; (2) operational viability, which means that the system must be capable of surviving if it were brought into existence; and, (3) the capability to adapt and learn rapidly., Idealization: Formulating the Mess ???? Reference projections are extrapolations of organizational performance from its recent past into the future assuming no significant changes in the behavior of either the organization or its environment
