Problems with traditional approaches Strategy maps inspire thinking about different dimensions of planning Mechanistic approach to strategy Quality, not quantity of change Focus too much on impact in areas “where their influence … is low and decreasing relative to that of other actors”* Fits better with what CSOs feel they are doing: stimulating change, not delivering outputs CSOs tend to see it as alien OM Traditional help implementing agencies to become “learning organisations” Exclusive focus on impact/results Rich, useful feedback Provide only “clueless feedback” Contribution (what did they do, what worked?) Attribution (did they really cause the change?)
