11. Conceptual model of an organisation People use systems to implement processes which generate information. It is an holistic view – each of these elements acts on the other. Efficiency comes when they exist in balance. Value comes when they are motivated towards an external purpose. Sustainability comes when they can adapt in response to emergent needs.

12. Conceptual model of museum functions Museums have traditionally been presented as a balance between access and preservation. This misses both the emergent/ dynamic nature of what we do, and the intellectual capital which is generated. Cultural value emerges from the interaction of caring for material, acquiring and developing collections, promoting their use and developing new knowledge from them.
