PURPOSE:
Conducts futures research in the field of
Administrative Theory and Many-to-Many Communication technology to
discover those dynamics which tend to move organizations and
institutions, universally, toward solving their problems and
anticipating or adapting to changes in their internal or external
environment.
CONCEPT:
The basic organizing principle
of the human race in the historic past has been the Authoritarian
Hierarchy, A>B>C>D..., (authoritarianism and
dictatorships)--it provides no checks or balances in governance and
minimum societal incentives. Research indicates that the basic
organizing principle of the human race actually is the Participative
Heterarchy, A>B>C>A, (i.e., Administrators over Bureaucrats
over Citizens over Administrators, freedom and democracy)--it provides
checks and balances in governance and maximum societal incentives in
civilization building!
SERVICES:
The foundation
is primarily in a research mode and not a service delivery mode. It is
interested in applying the Fast Forum® groupware technique using an
"Opinionnaire®" and "Viewspaper®" to assist leaders to "talk"
symbolically with constituents and for them to "talk" back. This
assists in (1) diagnosing system problems as a first step in solving
them, (2) learning through the dynamics of the Socratic Method by
individuals and organizations participating, and (3) moving
organizations and individuals participating toward organizational and
societal peace. Some limited grants are available to support services
to organizations interested in participating in the research. States,
cities, schools, and organizations interested are invited to apply.
