| Organisational Coherence & Trajectory (OCT) Project
The aim of this project is to create tools for modelling, identification, evaluation and diagnosis of organisational coherence, sustainability and change, addressing function, dysfunction and pathologies of organisations. An essential part of this is the creation of a simulation model of organisational coherence, which will deliver insights into cooperation within and between organisations, with validation across types of social collectives like state owned and privately owned organisations, and across nations, cultures or civilisations. |
