Orgtology Glossary

• Change
  Change is what people do when they can no longer continue with what was relevant before. It is a conflict of awareness followed by renewed thinking. Change is revolutionary and transformation is evolutionary. Change is driven by leaders and transformation directed by managers. In organizational sens...
• Facilitator
  A facilitator is someone or who makes a process easy. Facilitation is different from training in that a facilitator is a process expert but not necessarily a content expert. A trainer needs some content expertise. Mostly a facilitator will help a group or person to grasp their purpose and intent. Wi...
• Inputs
  An input is a place where, or a device through which, energy or information enters a process or system. In orgtology we use “inputs” to measure efficiency. This would be all the resources (people, money, and assets), intelligence, and time that goes into the process and project constructs. &nbs...
• Information
  Information are facts provided or learned about something or someone. Bits of data create information. Unlike data, information is ready to use. It is not raw as data. Data are simply facts or figures. As soon as we process data, it can become useful information to a context. Org needs information t...
• Identity
  Identity is the boundaries that define and differentiate subsystems from one another. In humans, this experience explores all manifesting boundaries such as race, gender, age, physical features, etc. Identity also includes the reference systems or paradigm of a person. In orgtology, we use the term ...
• Certification
  In orgtology we use the term “certification” to denote that the International Orgtology Institute (IOI) has assessed an orgtology product or service and that they found it compliant. Where the IOI certifies a product or service, they will issue an orgtology certification number (OCN). The IOI wi...
• Core Organisational System
  In 2018 Derek Hendrikz introduced four basic systems within any organisation. We use these systems as orgamatics tools. They are the core organisational system; the resource system; the relationships system; and the orgtelligence system. A system is a collection of processes that works towards the s...
• Outcome
  An outcome describes how something has turned out. In other words, an outcome is a consequence. We assess the effect of an event, activity, environment, subject, or object. Outcomes thus show effectiveness. E.g., to chop down a forest with engineering precision is an output. Whether it was the right...
• Customer
  A customer is a stakeholder who directly uses the products or service of Org. Different schools have diverse opinions on this. In orgtology we hold that customers are the people or entities for whom the organisation exists. Often customers do not directly sponsor Org. E.g., Coca Cola gets no money d...
• Hub
  A hub is a container of time, cost, or priority. In orgamatics, we often cluster various parts of Org into a group so that we can work with it in some way or another. Where the aim of such a group is to achieve efficiency, we call it a “Hub”. We use a Hub to contain three things. These are Time,...
