Assignment questions:
1. What to Change? Complete a CRT to expose the logic which translates the key undesirable effects of the current state into one or more root causes. Select from the root cause that which you consider to be the core problem - ie. That which is the source of the most significant undesirable effects. (The CRT should fit onto one A4/A3 size page)
2. What to Change to? Based on the core problem identified in the CRT (from 1 above), complete an Evaporating cloud to identify the core conflict and propose one or more injections to ‘evaporate the cloud'. An evaporating cloud is a necessity-based logic diagram that describes conflicts and helps identify erroneous assumptions and/or injections and resolve conflicts in a win-win? manner. (the completed EC will fit onto one A4 page including assumptions and injections )
3. How to effect the Change? Develop an S&T Tree to validate/prove that the UP's EA plan (principles and architectural map) is both necessary and sufficient to achieve the university strategic direction and goals.
(Note: S&T tree to include the logic that defines the necessary and sufficient EA principles and then to take 2 of these principles down 1 level on the S&T tree. (the completed S&T tree should fit onto a single A4/A3 page. However the 2 chosen principles that you take down 1 level will require an additional A4 page each to document the detailed descriptions of the strategy, tactics and assumptions)
