future EDGE combines three fundamental processes in its work with individuals, teams and organisations - state analysis, cause analysis and intervention design and selection.

To get better results you need to:

• know what you want and where you want to be [desired future]
• know where you are now and what you get from being their [present state]
• identify the gap between the two
  This is called State Analysis
• Find out what is causing the gap
  This is called Cause Analysis
• Do something about closing it
  This is called Intervention Design and Selection
• Notice what is happening and if it is good keep doing it. If it's not do something else. This is called Evaluation
