Activity model
A shared map from intention and current reality to a desired result, change process, and tools.
Why it exists
The activity model prevents a vague question from being mistaken for a complete task. It gives the route a stable vocabulary before any method is selected.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs
- What the person wants to change
- What is true now
- The desired result and its constraints
Outputs
- A named decision or activity
- A clear next question
- A concrete result or plan artifact
Visual flow
- Name the intention
- Describe the current state
- Define the desired result
- Choose a change process
- Check which tools are missing
Practical example
Situation
“I need to make my project better” is too broad for a useful first move.
Result
The model turns it into “choose one launch decision for this week”, with a visible result and a next action.
Limitations
- It does not diagnose a person or organisation.
- It does not decide whether a goal is worthwhile.
- It needs user judgement when context is incomplete.
