The importance of IDEASIDEAS::
• ALL ALL human accomplishment - individual, organisational or societal - is based on IDEASIDEAS
• But ideas can get accomplished only when they are effectively acted upon
• Therefore, we need means to ensure effective action on our available ideas
• The best of ideas would fail if they are not effectivelyeffectively acted on
![Page 3: The ‘One Page Management System’ (OPMS) It’s the tool par excellence to transform IDEAS to effective ACTION.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062311/5a4d1af27f8b9ab05997f0a3/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

About IDEASIDEAS::
• Bad Ideas (which should NOTNOT be pursued)• Trivial Ideas• Good, Small Ideas• Good, Big Ideas• Great & Noble Ideas• Ideas that may be impossible to accomplish
“To create educational systems for India that would enable our citizens to accomplish all
they are capable of”
![Page 4: The ‘One Page Management System’ (OPMS) It’s the tool par excellence to transform IDEAS to effective ACTION.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062311/5a4d1af27f8b9ab05997f0a3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
GSC - OPMS - IIT Pres. 4
About IDEASIDEAS::• Using conventional means, it is not easy to arrive at a
realistic understanding of the true value or type of an idea
• Great accomplishments cannot come out of trivial ideas - trivial ideas would generally lead only to trivial accomplishments
• Small (but not trivial) ideas - when well handled - may lead to truly worthy accomplishment
• Great ideas may or may not lead to great accomplishment - they most probably would NOT lead to great accomplishment if not effectively handled and acted upon
“Garibi Hatao!”

In any case, we do require practical practical means to
enable effective handling of every worthwhile idea - from
inception to final action on the idea

Ideas may range from ‘apparently Ideas may range from ‘apparently simple’ to ‘apparently very complex’simple’ to ‘apparently very complex’
But the complexity of an idea is actually a function of our perceptions of it!

A couple of important characteristics of ideas:
• An idea may contain any number of An idea may contain any number of other ideasother ideas
• Ideas can be extremely ‘slippery’ if Ideas can be extremely ‘slippery’ if not handled right - they often just not handled right - they often just disappear - or appear to change from disappear - or appear to change from what we wanted to mean!what we wanted to mean!

More about Interactive ManagementInteractive Management (IM):
IM is THE seminal development in general system theory, from Professor John N. Warfield. IM enables us to develop - from our own good ideas - effective, actionable pictures of the systems we work within.

Interactive ManagementInteractive Management involves:
• Human ideas and perceptions - linguistics• An integration of human psychology
(behavioral issues) with technological concerns - how technology is used in real life
• ““The resolution to a problem must come The resolution to a problem must come from the people involved in the problem”from the people involved in the problem”
Cybernetics: “The science of communication and control in the animal and the machine”
• A ‘cybernetic’, ‘systems’ view of the world
Demands Democracy in the organisation!

Systems Theory: the transdisciplinary study of the abstract organization of
phenomena, independent of their substance, type, or spatial or temporal
scale of existence. It investigates both the principles common
to all complex entities, and the (usually mathematical) models which can
be used to describe them

When an individual or group starts work on an unknown Mission, it is like someone
stepping into a darkened room - without a flashlight.
As these ‘contribution structures’ are developed, the Mission becomes
continuingly clarified to the people involved in the Mission (just as the dark room
becomes familiar to the explorer through his/her groping around).

… but “precedence” is NEVERNEVER sufficient to describe ALL relevant aspects of a real ‘system’, such as an organisation working to accomplish a
challenging Mission!
Warfield’s ISM enables us to use ANY transitive relationship, choosing exactly the
one that is relevant to the issue under consideration at the specific time!
![Page 51: The ‘One Page Management System’ (OPMS) It’s the tool par excellence to transform IDEAS to effective ACTION.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062311/5a4d1af27f8b9ab05997f0a3/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Transitive Relationships in a system:
“contributes to” – crucial for Action Planning - is just one of
the transitive relationships.There are many others…

Some more examples of transitive relationships:
• “is more important than”• “should have higher priority than” • “aggravates”• “enhances”• “implies”• “leads to”• (strictly) includes• “precedes” (used for PERT Charts – which
provide the basis of most conventional ‘Project Management Software’)
Different transitive relationships are appropriate at different parts of the system, at different times!

Ashby’s Law of Requisite Variety (Simple Simon’s version)…
• “The dimensions of a proposed solution to a problem must match the dimensions of the problem”
• (If too few dimensions, the solution won’t work – if too many, the solution would be too expensive or too complicated!)
Most deficiencies and failures in organisational & societal systems take root from the fact that
the systems in question fail to satisfy Ashby’s Law!Ashby’s Law!

Ashby’s Law of Requisite Variety:
A Design Situation embodies a requirement for Requisite Variety in thedesign specifications, as follows –
Every Design Situation S implicitly represents an (initially unknown) integerdimensionality Ks such that if the designer defines an integer Km number of distinctspecifications (whether qualitative or quantitative or a mix of these, then:
i. If Km < Ks, the Target is underspecified and the behavior of the Target is outside thecontrol of the Designer;
ii. If Km > Ks, the Target is overspecified, and the behavior pf the Target cannot becompatible with the designer’s wishes;
iii. If Km = Ks, the design specification exhibits Requisite Variety, provided thedesigner has correctly identified and specified the dimensions; and the behavior ofthe design should be that which the situation can absorb and which the deisgner cancontrol, subject to the requirement that the dimensionality of the Situation is notmodified by the introduction of the target into the Situation. If the dimensionality ischanged thereby, the design process can apply the Law of Requisite Varietyiteratively, taking into account the dynamics of the Situation.
