Description:
A process modeling approach is used to describe three major elements of policy making, namely, the workings of the corporate ,system of a firm, its representation in Managers' Cause Maps, and the Policy Formation Procedures used by the policy making elite. System Dynamics provides an expert system to aid the construction of the Corporate System. Cause Map and Behavioral Decision Making theory, on the other hand, provides the artificial intelligence (modeling the collective decision making behavior of a senior management) that drives the Corporate System. Potential applications of the methodology are put forward.
