			Constraining rules are proposed, but can be adjusted. So that every project does not ultimately need to follow a rigid set of cycles, but cycles that are most useful to it's own development.

This is a proposal for the future course of design of the http://socialsynergyweb.org/opensourceecology development

==Summary Overview==

===Traditional Project Management===

Traditional Project Management, and Product Development seeks to manage, control, organize and coordinate projects, to create order via:

* Hierarchical Organization

* Increasing Control

* Rigid procedures

* People as "resources"

* Reductionist problem solving

* Up-front planning to manage risks, and to enhance predictability

(adapted from pg.3 http://www.ccpace.com/Resources/documents/AgileProjectManagement.pdf)

===Complex Adaptive ("Agile") Project Management Framework===

"Agile" project management borrows from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_adaptive_system Complex Adaptive System] principles.

(see page 8 table 1 http://www.ccpace.com/Resources/documents/AgileProjectManagement.pdf )

===Framework Outline===

====Guiding Vision====

"Guiding Vision" has an immediate effect on influence of behavior of people involved

====Teamwork and Collaboration====

People are treated as autonomous, intelligent indviduals. Whenever possible, decision making power is handed over to the participants, to allow them to guide in collaborative ways

====Simple Rules====

Rather than micro-managed control, we all agree to a set of simple rules that guide complex distributed development

====Open Information====

This site, and all sites, and all communications are open, and constitute open information. Our processes are open and transparent.

====Light Touch====

Rather than trying to force the direction of evolution, we scale back imposed order, in favor of emergent order. We are flexible, and allow many directions to emerge from any given point. '''Our goal is to support and enable emergent order.'''

====Agile Vigilance====

Leaders, coordinators, people with responsibility pay attention to what is going on, and adapt to the emergent order, rather than trying to force what is evolving and emerging. Instead, they rely on the simple rules, the Guiding vision, open information, and Light Touch to help them adapt to what is emerging

===Applying to our processes===

All of us Propose a Guiding Vision, and all of us are then responsible for working towards emergent order over imposed order.

[[Open Product Development]] is a proposed Guiding Vision, that we are trying to implement. All of the projects evolving at [[Category:Zero Hour]] are proposed guiding visions, that try to connect with real-world solutions.
