Welcome, Guest
Means-end analysis is a process for solving simple problems which works backwards from your target position to discover what actions you can take.
In this Smart Map wizard, we will go only 5 levels deep - if you need more detail than this, you can add it by saving the map as a normal Mindomo map and editing it with Mindomo's features.
Where next?
If you have successfully built your plan for achieving your target outcome, then congratulations!
You can now save your map as a normal Mindomo map and continue to work in it using normal features. Of course, you can continue to develop your action plan without the Smart Map wizard. You can also mark up actions with task information using Mindomo's commands.
The plan naturally shows the execution order from left to right. Actions on the left are done first, and work towards the centre of the map.
Name the target outcome
Begin by identifying the target outcome in a few words and press Enter.
For example, you might be aiming to increase production capacity, so this would be your target outcome.
This is the tree of conditions and actions that lead towards the target status, so is drawn on the left of the map. Actions flow from left to right.
Creating the plan
Now we are ready to work backwards from 'Manage Competence & Training @ INFRABEL' towards the current situation, trying to create a chain of conditions and actions to join them up.
Add a condition before 'Manage Competence & Training @ INFRABEL'
What needs to be in place before you can reach 'Manage Competence & Training @ INFRABEL'? What are the pre-requisites or conditions of reaching this position?
Add a short description of something that must be put in place or a condition that must exist before you can reach 'Manage Competence & Training @ INFRABEL'. Remember to observe the constraints that you listed.
Example: if you need to increase production capacity, then the kinds of things that need to be in place could include:
The constraints on what you can do to move from the current situation to the target situation
What are the constraints?
When taking action to move from where you are now to where you want to be, there will always be some sort of constraints to think about. Any planned actions must meet these constraints.
Add a constraint
Add a constraint that limits what you can do in moving from the current situation to the target situation. A constraint may be:
Current situation - where you are now
The current situation
Where are you now?
Means-end analysis tries to close the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.
Describe your current situation
Add a line describing where you are now.
Target situation - where you are aiming at
The target situation
Where do you want to be? What does successfully reaching 'Manage Competence & Training @ INFRABEL' look like?
Describe the target situation
Add a line describing where you want to be in the future.
