ArdorX Consulting AB

Vision

Our vision is to become an innovation lab for systems thinking, where we model and understand the intricate dynamics of organizations. We aim to guide businesses in adapting to change and evolving toward their visions by providing clear insights into the relationships between organizational units, objectives, key results (OKRs), and initiatives. Through a holistic approach, we enable organizations to thrive in an interconnected, ever-evolving business landscape.

Mission

Our mission at ArdorX Consulting is to empower organizations to navigate complexity by employing systems thinking. We explore the interactions between goals, key results, and activities within the ever-changing business environment. By offering tailored insights, we help our clients optimize decision-making, align their efforts with their vision, and successfully realize their long-term objectives.

Systems Thinking

Systems thinking is a holistic approach to problem-solving that focuses on understanding the interconnectedness and relationships between different parts of a system rather than analyzing individual components in isolation. By examining how each part interacts with the whole, systems thinking offers a clearer view of complex problems, allowing organizations to better understand their internal dynamics and the external factors influencing their success.

At ArdorX Consulting, we apply systems thinking to organizational strategy and development. By considering the full system—comprising organizational units, OKRs, and initiatives—we offer insights that help businesses evolve and adapt to emerging challenges.

Thinking About

At ArdorX Consulting, we’re currently focused on exploring several key questions related to systems thinking in organizations:

What would a basic data model include to represent an organizational system?
We are researching how to model the interactions between Mission, objectives, key results, and activities in a way that is both comprehensive and actionable.
How can that organizational model be visualized?
We are investigating how to create visual representations of organizational systems that provide a deeper understanding of relationships between units and whether they align with the overall vision.
How does SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) apply to systems thinking?
SAFe claims to address systems thinking, and we are exploring which components of the framework represent a system and how these parts interact. Can we model these relationships in a way that is simple yet effective, helping organizations evolve?
Can Lean Portfolio Management in SAFe 6.0 be a use case of systems thinking?
We are evaluating how Lean Portfolio Management, as described in SAFe 6.0, could serve as a practical example of an organizational system, and how it might help align portfolios with strategic objectives.

R&D Projects

The Organizational Systems Thinking (OTS) System.

We are developing a framework that models the intricate interactions within an organization, focusing on the alignment between missions, objectives, key results, and actions. Our goal is to provide a system that offers clarity, helping businesses visualize and navigate their strategic challenges.
