An Outcomes Network

Figure 2: An Outcomes Network (Organizational Depth = 4)

Figure 2: An Outcomes Network (Organizational Depth = 4)

This diagram shows four agencies, each maintaining independent programs:

  • Agency A maintains Program A-1 and Program A-n.
  • Agency B maintains Program B1.
  • Agency C maintains Program C-1 and Program C-n.
  • Agency D maintains Program D-1 and Program D-n.

Each agency's programs' output produces three distinct levels of outcomes, which have various interconnected relationships, and which merge at each level to eventually form one outcome:

  • We begin with the output of the agencies' programs.
  • Level one are the short-term outcomes.
  • Level two are the long-term outcomes.
  • Level three are the system outcomes.

Each time the outcomes merge to form a new level, the result is grouped and given a title.

  • The merger between outputs that produces the Short-Term Outcomes is called the Organization.
  • The merger between short-term outcomes that produces the long-term outcomes is called the Performance Partnership.
  • The merger between long-term outcomes that produces the Performance Partnership is called the Community Outcomes Institute.
