The limits to results structure endeavors to bring a balance between a current state and a desired state though more often than not the action is limited by some constraint.  See also Archetypes.

Based on 1990 SDR Article. Control systems act to make their own input match internal standards or reference signals. Competent control systems create illusions of stimulus response causality. Stimulus-response theory can approximate the relationship between disturbance and action, but it can't predict the consequences of behavior. These consequences are maintained despite disturbances.

Network Magic's rapid growth creates a growing demand for resources. And the more they satisfy their customers the more difficult the problem becomes.

Thoughts on why storytelling is critical for enabling others to understand relationship models once they're developed. This was done for the Learning Community Group at ODU Mar 2019.

An escalation structure results from two or more competing entities with the competition taking them to somewhere none of them want to be. See also Archetypes.

While it's rather straight forward to invest money in places that generate interest over time why isn't that more of us don't do that and become rich?

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.

This is my first attempt at creating a simple Agent Based Simulation Model. Nothing fancy, just something that works.

The virtuous reinforcing loop is what happens when you just do it with a trial and learning mindset.

From reading Why Politics Makes Us Stupid by Ezra Klein I though I had discovered a new archetype though it's really just a simple reinforcing structure, or so it seems.

My first simulation model example.

To this point components which are likely so support aspects of a virtual collaboration have been identified. The question now becomes how does one foster interactions between participants such that there is a definite possibility of producing meaningful results.

There are two basic modes of organizational operation, one founded on the concept of management and one founded on the concept of leadership. These two modes represent very different systemic structures.

What seems to make sense at this point is to first identify the functional aspects of the tool set even though we're aware they cannot all come from one vendor.
