Abstract

This chapter delves into the impact of collaboration and visualization on the outcome of goal and problem modeling in enterprise settings. It explores three different modeling settings: consultative, individual/participatory, and collaborative/participatory. The study reveals that collaborative settings lead to smaller models with better-connected contributions from different participants. Visualization, while not significantly supportive in this study, is believed to have potential benefits for more complex models. The role of method consultants is also examined, highlighting their crucial role in facilitating the modeling process. The findings suggest that while collaboration can slow down the modeling process, it results in a more integrated and joint understanding among participants. The text concludes with implications for future enterprise modeling projects, emphasizing the need for careful planning and preparation of method consultants.
