The difference between complexity and complicatedness.

The basic differences between Complex and Complicated systems based generally on Csikeszenmihalyi's "The Evolving Self" as discussed in Knowledge Management: Emerging Perspectives https://www.systems-thinking.org/kmgmt/kmgmt.htm 

This model is an attempt to map out a template for a general implementation plan or strategy for the Enabling a Better Tomorrow process for use with New Community Paradigms

This model identifies the boundaries and responsibilities of the various relevant stakeholders.

Borrowed from STW/STiA Certification program to help develop insights regarding situations of interest to New Community Paradigms. There are a number of things should be considered to ensure a view of the relevant influences.

A representation of the initial perception of the situation associated with Big Box Distribution and it's overly lengthy average accounts receivable.

This model is intended to profile the relevant stakeholders, their responsibilities and apparent motivations.

It's now time for the stakeholders to take the investigation resulting from leverage and craft a strategy which will address the current situation in a manner that is beneficial to the whole system.

This model incorporates the Accounts Payable Examples revised from the STW/STiA Certification program for use with New Community Paradigms

Now that we have some context for the situation it's appropriate to begin to investigate, though possibly not where you might think. And the investigation is actually a bit hindered because management fired the accounts receivables department. What I'm really interested in is trends as to how things have evolved over time.

Investigating the behavior of several variables over time has probably raised more questions than answers. As such now it's time to investigate what else might be influencing the trending of these variables.

To this point the Situation, Behavior, Model, Stakeholder and Boundary aspects of this situation have been investigated. It is now appropriate to consider the assumptions that have been made to this point and ensure we are on a solid foundation before proceeding to the Leverage and Strategy aspects are considered.

It's now time for the stakeholders to take the investigation resulting from leverage and craft a strategy which will address the current situation in a manner that is beneficial to the whole system.

The model is designed to provide a general understanding of the wear and tear on roads or a community's circulation system as a result of vehicle traffic generated by development within and outside of a community. It is not based on realistic assumptions regarding those impacts, it simply attempts to convey the flow of influence.

It is now appropriate to investigate the possible leverage points for the current situation in an attempt to understand the most appropriate components for the strategy.

There has been an ongoing effort to find a means of making systems thinking accessible and readily adopted by others not familiar with systems thinking. One line of thinking places a good deal of the blame on systems thinkers themselves, the problem is that they have not found a good enough method of explaining it and its benefits yet. 

This model is a copy based on a model created by Thorbjoen Mann 
Owner, Thorbjoern Mann Consulting for an blog article:

This is a revised version of the Insight Maker Model 605  Jackson's System of Systems Methodology (SOSM) framework for New Community Paradigms

This model, created in response to the rewriting of the first blog post on the Systems Thinking Certification Course, attempts to map out some of the general relationships making up Systems Thinking. Elements or stuff that we consider important can be increased or decreased, changed in different ways. There are different ways to model this process that are qualitative or quantitative in nature. These changes are influenced by different stakeholders or actors. The interaction of these elements makes for different scenarios that can be seen as analogous to plays. The systems thinking perspective asks us to look at the relationships and processes on a deeper level.

This model is based the the New Learning Inhibited/Breaking the Cycle model http://insightmaker.com/insight/7018 It expands upon that model and integrates to a greater extent some of the concepts raised by Argyris, "Teaching Smart People How To Learn"
