 THE FRONT COVER STORY

The grid lines superimposed on the map of the archipelago of the Philippines symbolize “the grand experiment for inclusive development” that eventually transitions into “collective governance.”

The gridlines also signify the application of two most basic principles in experimental design, which are replication and randomization. Together with the resulting rectangular cells, the grid lines also serve as the rules and guides in conducting experiments for purposes of continuously verifying and testing the business models. 

Individually, the operational structure of every business model is aligned towards its efficient and effective adaptation to the target geographical areas and across the country’s population. The components and the systems in the operational structure are treated as variables in the testing and verification processes. These variables include project ownership arrangement, management strategies, organizational structure, technology, funding arrangement, community participation, government ownership and control, research and product development system, foreign investment and ownership,  private sector participation, project sustainability design, and other operational variables within the business model. 

As experiments continue, every inclusive development agenda undergoes the more complex and detailed testing and verification. The benefits derived from the permutations and combinations of the components within a particular business model are calculated. The spatial placements and the temporal sequencing within the business model and the integrated business models in the inclusive development framework are also examined.   The application of statistical tools, geographic information system,  action research, case studies, systems analysis, operations research, economic surveys, and other traditional and innovative research tools ensure accurate results and analysis. In effect, the rectangular cells, which are connected together by the grid lines to form one whole,   serve as the fundamental structure that holds the functional systems together. This structure is also continuously tested for its strength and stability.

The system of development experiment that progressively evolved builds harmonious collaboration among the stakeholders. The active and the broad-based participation in the development process ensure equitable distribution of benefits. Consequently, these right proportions and arrangements of business models form a  structure of beauty, which everybody appreciates.

Finally, in the transformation of the business models to inclusive enterprises, the grid lines and the rectangular cells become the symbol of collective governance.
