This just came to me…
What kind of modeling technology and protocols would we need to model organizations?
Can an individual model an organization or would it be necessary for the entire organization to model another?
If the second option were true, how exactly can an organization model another organization?

This is particularly interesting in light of Ken Wilber’s integral model and his use of the concept of holons developed by Arthur Koestler.
According to Koestler, the universe is made up of holons, or whole-parts that form greater whole-parts. Each level transcends and includes the previous level.
You can observe the phenomenon when you go from atom to molecule, molecule to cell, cell to tissue, tissue to organ, organ to system and so forth.
Likewise, you can observe this at the social level. Individual to family, family to tribe, tribe to nation, nation to race.
And now, take it to the business or organizational level: individual to team, team to department, department to division, division to company.
Now, in light of this, is it possible for an entity at the individual level to model the company level?
Any insights on this?
