Seventh Part |
Where we inform you about the future of HUMANA People to People as far as we can see
This part almost deserves to be written as a diagram. The organization qualifies as a complex adaptive system with its constant streams of information, stuffed with identifiable regularities, and being computed and processed into entities in the form of new ideas or methods or additions to the objectives, in order hereby to be able to concentrate a policy that can change the reality of this world.
Doing just that the policy itself is a victim of change, influenced by reality, returning back to the organization as an information base for the complex adaptive system. Such systems are written into diagrams or "schemas".
We shall in this case be content with a sketch of a diagram with a column across the page for the introduction, followed underneath by three columns, one for each type of development, with room for short explanations. At the bottom of the page, a column for a postscript.
In the first column the organization should concentrate on the progress of its operations already alive and well.
It should express its wish to add strength to the quality of the existing projects by increasing the supply of capital for equipment, by educating a greater number of the employees, by securing a bigger participation from local volunteers and finally by rationalizing the organizational and structural layout for the sake of the project leader to be able to invest more time in studying details, hereby making himself a more capable composer of his own conduct in the processes of leading and governing.

In this column the organization should also pay its tribute to all the hitherto collected and created values in the form of educated human beings as in the different forms of matter. "Apply great care in due time" could be the credo here.
Buildings and parks and farms and students and local tradesmen and all friends and connections should be mentioned as objects to be kept well. Finally this overture should emphasize the necessity to extend and improve the communication equipment in each project.
The contact from the project to the world becomes a more and more obvious means of production for the project leader.
It must be done to secure a more frequent, a much faster, a much more abundant and a much cheaper communication. Contact and communication - also to the association and the Board - become of ever greater importance, the more the ability to produce information can be equalized with the ability to produce the raw material of the rightly so-called information society.
Information, communication and thus the handling of languages should be seen as a prerequisite for raising the quality in each project. The three columns below should have each their title on the top.
The left one should be called Enhancement of each project. The middle one should be called Enrolment of new projects. The right one should be called Expansion of the organization. |
