“…- Systemic and cybernetics approaches are ideal to be embedded within the VSM approach applied here, so that for doing a deep study of System 5, soft systems methodology (SSM) (Checkland 1981 ; Checkland and Scholes 1990 ), critical systems thinking (Jackson 2000 , 2003 , 2019 ), mind mapping (Buzan 2013 ), cognitive mapping (Rosenhead and Mingers 2001 ), strategic options development analysis (SODA) (Rosenhead and Mingers 2001 ), team sintegrity (TS) (Beer 1994 ), total systems intervention (TSI) (Jackson 2019 ) and social network analysis (SNA) (Borgatti et al 2018 ; Newman 2010 ) can be applied to get successful outcomes.
- In System 4, systemic methodologies like system dynamics (SD) (Sterman and Sterman 2000 ; Forrester 1961 ; Lyneis 1988 ) soft system dynamics methodology (SSDM) (Rodriguez-Ulloa et al 2011 ), agent based modeling (ABM) (Wilensky 2011 ), and dynamic balanced scorecards ( DBSC ) (Rodriguez-Ulloa 2010 ) can be embedded within VSM.
- In System 3, soft systems methodology (SSM) (Checkland 1981 ; Wilson and van Haperen 2015 ), soft-business process management (Soft-BPM) (Rodriguez-Ulloa 2020 , 2021 ), systemic methodology for risk evaluation and management ( SYSMEREM ), (Rodriguez-Ulloa, 2018 ), robotic process automation (Tripathi 2018 ), and intelligent chatbots (Sabharwal 2020 ) can be applied.
