1. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-081 About ‘The One Page Management System’ (OPMS) What the OPMS looks like, and, very briefly, what you can do with it, next slide:

2. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-082 It’s a comprehensive ‘model of models’… …showing all the lists of ALL ideas, in all relevant Dimensions, that may be involved in accomplishment of the specified Mission – along with all the models showing relationships between the ideas… More detailed information about the ‘OPMS’ is available at ‘The Technical Story’ (seen in our formal presentations) Next slide: What happens within the ‘OPMS Framework’ OPMS software now ready in prototype! What the OPMS looks like:

3. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-083 The OPMS Framework – this is what happens within it Generating and Using Ideas To generate ideas, we simply need to ask appropriate questions of the people who have ideas about the issue under consideration The right people to ask are those actually involved in the issue in various ways – the real stakeholders in the issue To actually USE the ideas generated, here is what has to be done: Capture IdeasRecord IdeasOrganize and Integrate Ideas Create Lists! To Organize and Integrate Ideas: Construct models showing relationships between ideas! ● Interpretive Structural Models ● Field Representations ● One Page Management System (OPMS) Implement the models! Ensures effective Action Planning on any chosen Mission!

Change Management Knowledge ManagementStrategic Management Implementing Ideas! Individual IssuesOrganizational Issues Societal Issues …and much, MUCH else! Motivating people… Can be demonstrated and measured in live sessions!

5. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-085 Fundamental Concepts Fundamental philosophy: A problem is best resolved by the people involved in it Enables individuals and organization to benefit from ‘self-consulting’ ‘teaching by questioning’ rather than by ‘telling’A vehicle to explore and exploit the vast latent knowledge and intuitive power of people in the organization – uses Socratic method of ‘teaching by questioning’ rather than by ‘telling’ create integratesHelps create wisdom from existing knowledge – integrates knowledge of people into consensus action planning

6. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-086 Processes to accomplish these tasks quite well known in Management Science - but they’re generally not very effective because of the lack of the requirements sketched next: Grab hold of all good ideas available! Record (and clarify) those ideas! Idea Generation tools Put the ideas together into an effective Action Plan! Interpretive Structural Modeling Field Representation Method Processes to accomplish this task barely known to Management Science as it exists today! Integrate everything to create a true system! One Page Management System (OPMS) Processes for effective integration of ideas not known at all to Management Science! These processes that today are not known to management science are explained in outline at the ‘technical story’ underlying OPMS

8. OPMS Teaser05-Aug-088 Free copy of OPMS software to each participant in workshops! A quick ‘live’ OPMS session on a real issue chosen by participants (NOT a full-scale workshop!) can be conducted during a 2- hour presentation. Full-scale workshops conducted over 1 day and 2 days Where participants cannot not all come together at the same place at the same time, a workshop can be conducted over the Internet. Such workshops will necessarily have to be spread out over several weeks, with participants entering into discussion mode for, say, an hour at a time several times a week.
