This is a conceptual presentation for what Chapter 5 might become as archetypes evolution.

OK, we have a problem. Yet, do we really know what the problem is? More often than not we look at the symptoms, consider them the problem and attempt to fix them. This actually dooms us to failure because they're only symptoms.

Escape behavior often results in more stress than one escapes from.

The limits to growth structure is based on the basic growth structure. And, as should be obvious, nothing grows forever as growth requires resources. Those required resources become a limits to growth.

A basic savings account model.

A model to use to demonstrate scenarios using button scripts.

My first relationship map which demonstrates the build out of the relationship options for a project which is behind schedule.

A spatially aware, agent based model of disease spread. There are three classes of people: susceptible (healthy), infected (sick and infectious), and recovered (healthy and temporarily immune).

There are about fifteen known archetypes with an interesting set of relationships among them.

The delays associated with adjusting the shower is a very common example of the Balancing Loop with Delay Systems Archetype.

What do activities of these images have in common?

Understanding relationships is the foundation of effective problem solving. Though relations exists on multiple levels.

This is the sample model used as a demo for enfolding and unfolding a model. This is what we had to do before the Storytelling feature was developed. Save this one for posterity!

The boundary defines the extent of the system.

A Tragedy of the Commons situation exists whenever two or more activities, each, which in order to produce results, rely on a shared limited resource. Results for these activities continue to develop as long as their use of the limited resource doesn't exceed the resource limit. Once this limit is reached the results produced by each activity are limited to the level at which the resource is replenished. See also Archetypes.

Cloud example. If you really want clouds a sources in your model it's pretty easy to create one.

Once the strategy has been developed it's up to the Stakeholders who own the segments of the revised model to implement it so a new pattern of behavior is created thus effecting the desired situation.

This is a template which one might use as a basis for creating Insight Maker Relationship Models. Links have a default style of the blue ones in the diagram. The easiest way to get the red dashed links is to CTRL+d to duplicate them and then connect where appropriate.
