6.10 IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING

Continual, and iterative, comparison between real behaviour and what has been suggested by the conceptual model is essential, as is review of subgroup and executive-level perspectives. Follow-up workshops will be needed to assess how much change in the problems situation has occurred, as far as the stakeholders are concerned. During these workshops, reference is made to the original concept maps. These activities might need to be supported by techniques for estimating the strength of influences within the problem space. Such techniques are described by Doyle and Ford (1998).
