THE ART OF QUANTUM PLANNINGwww.strategicforum.co.za
My core belief about what makes for quality strategic planning is to have a learning-oriented approach.
Planning is a way for an organization to learn its way forward and compete more effectively by making quality decisions. (Gerald Harris: The Art of Quantum Planning: 2009)
“We understand that the only competitive advantage the company of the future will have is its managers’ ability to learn faster than their competitors.” (Arie P. de Geus, “Planning as Learning” Harvard Business Review, March–April 1988)

At the end of 2008 and early months of 2009, the world economy was going through economic turmoil that is being compared to the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The economic stress is the result of a host of factors, including bad lending practices in mortgage markets, the creation of complex and hard-to-value financial instruments (known as derivatives), plain old fraud (the Bernard Madoff investment scandal), and, from my point of view, poor strategic planning by the managers of some of the world’s biggest companies.

Missed it completely
Events pushed us here on the way
The uncontrollable factors in the environment and in our organizations lead to different results
What we expect versus what happens

• Ways to get out of unhealthy group-think, old patterns, and safe comfort zones
• New models and metaphors for thinking about how the organization can grow and adjust to uncertain developments and new opportunities
• Ways to bring the whole person into planning and creative work
Do we need any more evidence than today’s headlines?

Why better planning can be found in ideas from Quantum Physics
• Quantum physics is the study of the structure of the universe as a whole system starting from the tiniest particles (light photons, electrons, etc).
• Planning involves thinking systemically, framing ideas, and using models and metaphors to improve understanding.
• By nature human beings draw from nature and many other fields of activity to create meaning.
• Powerful ideas and models for thought exist in quantum physics and can be translated and used to help find meaning in other areas of human endeavor.

Idea in Quantum PhysicsQuantum Idea Translated for
Planning & Creativity
Light has the properties of both a particle and a wave. It is both and can display the properties of both. Depending on your point of observation it can be one or the other.
We must see things and ideas for what they are and the direction they are moving. The needs and desires of a customer can be both discrete and continuous. The purpose of the organization can be very specific and multi-faceted. An event in the business environment can mean more than one thing depending on the point of view from which it is observed.

Proxenos says too many local property developers are holding on to old fashioned notions of Home Ownership.“Given SA’s huge housing backlog and the lack of delivery to meet demand, I believe we have a great opportunity to provide both home ownership and rental options”. (Business Day, 14 July 2010).
“We cannot afford to rely on home ownership alone and in fact we do our fellow citizens a disservice if we rely on home ownership to solve the backlog.” (Soula Proxenos: Business Day, 14 July 2010).

According to the FNB Estate Agent Survey for the 2nd quarter of 2010, buy-to-let buying expressed as a percentage of total property buying reached a new low of 7%, down further from the previous quarter’s 9%. The buy-to-let percentage has slumped a long way since being estimated at around 25% back in 2004 at the peak of the residential boom.(John Loos, FNB Property Market Analytics, 14 July 2010).
So where will the rental stock come from?The conventional Investment model must be challenged.Reinvention is required.

In the USA The Home Valuation Code of Conduct, adopted in May 2009 to ensure appraiser independence, bars mortgage brokers and bank loan officers from selecting appraisers. Mortgage brokers and realtors complain that the rules have produced low-ball appraisals that have blown up deals, while appraisers argue the change has harmed appraisal quality. (Jessica Holzer, WSJ, June 2010).

So what is the response of the Building Industry?Does it accept the situation that the Banks have inordinate power and influence over the fortunes of the industry?Some PARADIGM REINVENTION IS REQUIRED.

2. Uncertainty and Positionality (Inescapable uncertainty)
Idea in Quantum PhysicsQuantum Idea Translated for
Planning & Creativity
You cannot simultaneously know (measure) the speed and the position of an electron. The very process of measuring the speed or position affects the other. Uncertainty is inescapable.
It is not possible to get all the information needed to make the exact right decision. Taking a position that any perspective is “right” is inherently limited by that subjective point of view. A shift in point of view changes what we can measure and see. No analysis can be complete or definitive because what something is now may not be what it is in the future.

“. . . They (the Banks) do hold the key to economic recovery and to the survival of small businesses. Although we are seeing the return of some stability in the market, there will be no real recovery until stable consumers can access credit.” (Bus. Report, 26 November 2009).

More than 50 percent of home loan applications are still being declined despite many banks relaxing their credit criteria. (Business Report, 17 March 2010)
So where will the development finance come from?The conventional Investment model must be challenged.Reinvention is required.
Mortgage Advances in 2009 of R195 Billion in real terms was the lowest level since 1991. This compares with almost R502 Billion in 2006 (at 2009 values).

Britain's economic recovery was at risk of being undermined by the lack of bank lending to businesses, Business Minister Vince Cable was quoted as saying yesterday. "We could have a second credit crunch if we don't get credit flowing, there is a real danger that growth in the economy could be undermined," Dr Cable said in an interview in the Independent on Sunday. (Business Day, 19 July 2010)

The bankers have done it again. After almost destroying the economy and strangling small businesses by refusing desperately needed credit, they are now declaring record profits and are again enjoying giant bonuses. The Times, London ©, 10 August 2010)

This leads to the third explanation for the paradox of financial affluence amid economic squalor. We rail against banks and bankers, but we need more credit to revive the economy. The more public spending is cut, the more urgently private bank lending is required. The banks, therefore, have society in a choke hold. The Times, London ©, 10 August 2010)
What is needed is for regulators to suspend their normal rules and to encourage banks to take more risks – whereas the backlash against reckless casino banking has done the opposite. The Times, London ©, 10 August 2010)

3. Observation and Intention (Intentions, Actions and Reality)
Idea in Quantum PhysicsQuantum Idea Translated for
Planning & Creativity
The probability of where a particle is gets reduced when we observe it. Our observation at the moment we make it and measure it is real. Other observations from other points of view are also real.
Our observations and intentions are powerful and influence the reality we are observing. However, our intentions and observations do not cause a single reality. A different point of observation with different intentions can create a new reality. Intention must be paired with openness.

Minister Sisulu said the Department aimed to double delivery in the next two years from the
250000 annual delivery of houses to 500000, which is estimated to cost R345 Billion by 2014. (Business Day, 5 March 2009)

This immediately raises the question of the future of SA housing and its underlying delivery and mortgage finance structure?
The performance of Affordable Housing is a KEY UNCERTAINTY with very HIGH IMPACT.
Following are ideas for the next 12 years. A futuristic outlook is informed by a scenario structure to think about this question and more importantly to raise deeper underlying questions which might help in the formulation of solutions and policy.

THE HIGH ROAD (UBUNTU: Partners in Building South Africa): MEDIUM TO LOW PROBABILITY
• Route 1 (The High Road) can be described as a type of SA Capitalism which recognises the responsibility of the rich helping the poor, but also acknowledges that this can only be achieved through economic growth. It is therefore based on the DUALISTIC principle of Growth through Redistribution and Redistribution through Growth
• This is a world in which government policy accentuates competitive market solutions and they work. Policies that allow market-based solutions, though initially painful produce the quickest and most stable results. Real cost and values are allowed to play out. Innovation results and all forms of housing investment recovers on a base of sound private management.
• This requires courageous political leadership based on an IGNITING VISION, a collaborative mindset and the PRODUCTIVE CAPABILITY to fund and build 5 million Affordable houses eliminating the housing backlog by 2020 and creating 300 000 new jobs annually.
• The strategy for Sustainable Integrated Housing Settlements is visionary and achievable.
• SA has demonstrated the productive ability to succeed through the Soccer World Cup and can continue to do so, provided all the resources of the GOLDEN TRIANGLE are deployed.
• The rewards will be a healthy building industry acting as an engine for economic growth, wealth creation and nation building through home ownership, with SA a world model of a reconciled, winning Nation.

THE UPPER MIDDLE ROAD (Long walk to freedom); MEDIUM TO HIGH PROBABILITY
• Route 2 (The Upper Middle Road) can be described as a type of SA democracy verging on socialism.
• There is a desire to uplift the populace through the provision of housing, health and education, but the low growth scenario results in increasing unemployment.
• This is a world in which a balanced combination of government intervention and competitive market initiatives are put in place. This leads to a moderate return of private investment in long term housing finance by some institutions, but also buffers some of the harsh impacts of total free-market solutions.
• Bubble-based economic growth is avoided but government spending and deficits remain an issue, with housing subsidies increasing steadily to 2020.

THE LOWER MIDDLE ROAD (Pretoria will provide): HIGH PROBABILITY
• Route 3 is a world of muddling along in which government policy accentuates affirmative action and BEE solutions with a result that the “rich get richer.” Social justice is part of core SA values but political will subverts application. Government focuses on PUNITIVE TAXES of the limited number of tax payers to fund spending. An expanded ghetto-ization of SA housing results.
• It is characterised by an entitlement culture based on redistribution with or without growth and at any cost.
• The entitlement culture is funded by the increasing tax BURDEN of the limited number of taxpayers in the country supporting a disproportionately large and growing army of dependents through social grants as well as huge subsidies for housing, health and education.
• In the long run this scenario is unsustainable and the risk of deterioration to the Low Road is ever present. SA could continue muddling along with some half hearted attempts at cooperation between Government and the Private Sector and end up back where we are with SA failing to live up to its potential.

THE LOW ROAD (Cry the beloved Country): MEDIUM TO LOW PROBABILITY
• Route 4 (The Low Road) can be described as a type of SA Socialism verging on Communism with SA becoming a Third World POPULIST Country like Zimbabwe.
• Corruption is out of control and housing delivery is almost non-existent and backlogs unmanageable.
• The majority of people end up in unserviced squatter camp ghettos without any hope of home ownership.
• The inability to deliver because of corruption, nepotism, cadre deployment, tender-preneurs, Affirmative Action and BEE results in the continued deterioration of Provincial and Local Government Services, infrastructure, health and education AND INCREASING HOUSING BACKLOGS.
• The risks for endemic social unrest and violence increases progressively, and the environment will be supportive of populist leaders.

Affordable Housing delivery is bedeviled by political and financial considerations. Zuma’s Government has committed to “upgrading” informal settlements for 400 000 households by 2014 as a core outcome. Of course this begs the obvious questions: • What about the commitment to eradicate squatter settlements by that time? • What are the subsidies then for? This is the usual prevarication which successive Housing Ministers have been known for. It leads to confusion and lack of political will to solve the problem once and for all.

The probability of where a particle is gets reduced when we observe it.
The intentions of the Organisation give focus to and influence events in the business environment.
• Understand the context. Dig deep to unearth the dynamics. • The aversion against Low Cost Housing closes opportunity• The grass is greener offshore• The lack of trust (the golden triangle) • Set the intent. Work from the future backwards. • The success of the Soccer World Cup is a prime example.• What is the Vision of the Building Industry? Is there a vision?
“Basil Read had earmarked public-private partnership (PPP) projects totaling R45 billion in various industries for work that would be carried out over the next two years”, Marius Heyns, the chief executive of the listed construction firm, said on Friday.(Bus. Report, 15 March 2010)
“Basil Read’s goal was to become a R5bn plus group by 2010. With that goal firmly in sight, we have set a new target of becoming a global construction group with R10bn in turnover by 2013,” CEO Marius Heyns said. (Bus. Day, 19 April 2010)

Some particles can travel at greater than the speed of light and are not confined to time. Some properties of particles occur at faster than the speed of light in the universe so they happen in no time. The creative power of the universe is not limited by time. The universe can create without time as an essential ingredient.
Perceptions about the past or the future are not limitations on creativity or what is possible. Any “this” before a “that” is only a perception from a particular point of observation, not reality. What can be created is not limited to a particular sequence that stands for all time. Something new can appear out of “nowhere” and change everything.

The Sub-Prime crisis is the name for what is a historic turning point in our economy and culture. It is at its core, the result of a speculative bubble in the housing market that began to burst in the United States in 2006 and has now caused ruptures across many other countries in the form of financial failure and a global credit crunch.

The sub-prime loans in the US represent only 3% of total mortgage debt. In fact, when the IMF made its estimate of total US financial sector losses in its global financial stability report, it estimated that of total losses of $1,4-trillion, only around $150-billion could be traced to mortgages and only a fraction of that to sub-prime mortgages. So much for the idea that US sub-prime lending caused the crisis. It was merely the fuse that lit the bomb. The explosive was non-traditional lending outside the banking system, centering on securitization. (Dr. Vince Cable: The Storm: The World Economic Crisis and what it means: 2009)

Idea in Quantum PhysicsQuantum Idea Translated for

A different point of observing a particle can lead to different measurements of its position and different probabilities of its velocity. All the different measurements are real from their position of observation. Therefore there can be multiple realities.
Perception about the business environment and events set context. Depending on the point of observation there can be multiple contexts; each one valid. Creativity and planning has to challenge all assumptions and “sacred cows” in the organization. Openness to different world views is required for more robust planning.

The possibility of a ban on foreign ownership of land in the country was raised earlier this month in the context of a resolution which will go before the African National Congress's (ANC's) national conference next month.
The resolution calls for "usage patterns in the country, especially the sale of land to foreigners, which leads to pricing beyond the reach of South Africans" to be investigated. (Business Day, 14 November 2002)

According to Malema, "we no longer want townships and rural areas, we want our people to live as equals. Where there is land for settlement, let's get that land for our people to settle.” … "It doesn't matter where that land is located. If it is in the beachfront of Cape Town, let's use this land for the benefit of our people and let's not sell it to the foreigners." Malema insisted that "we need a government that will say we're going to take this land then we will determine the price... take it, or leave it.” (F W De Klerk Foundation, 24 September 2010), 3 February 2010)

Everything is connected to everything else in a unified field. The unified field balances weak and strong forces. The state of the field is not confined to time or a particular sequence and can change instantaneously. All that is possible is in the field. The field will always be in balance and change what needs to change to achieve it.
Planning and creative activity have to be based on a shared understanding the interconnectedness of all and the infinite range of what is possible. What is possible in the market cannot be limited or controlled from any single position. All actions affect the market and cause reactions. Creative work must acknowledge both infinite possibilities and the requirement of balance.

Everything in the Universe is composed of energy at its various levels. Energy equals matter vibrating at the square of the speed of light [E=mc(squared)] tell us that all matter is composed of energy vibrating at various levels m=E/c(squared).
Our organizations and businesses are composed of energy - they are alive. The assets (mass) of our organizations have to be used in a high vibration manner to create the energy that gives our organization life. The ease of use and accessibility of the value our organizations deliver sets the vibration level.

The GOLDEN Triangle
It’s BUSINESS that creates Economic Stability, not the Government. It’s BUSINESS that generates the wealth and the value that enable Government to invest in other areas. (Allan Leighton on Leadership: 2008: xxv)
Government must create the climate conducive to investment and promote growth through countercyclical investment in infrastructure, housing, health and education.
At the Brait Debate, Gordhan made a similar plea for a reinvention of how we view ourselves in relation to our country and each other. Calling for humility and self-awareness, he called for “a new engagement of the issues in a constructive national spirit”. (Bus. Day, 10 June 2010)

How can we create an environment that gives us the leverage to influence the Financial Institutions?“Are we making the same
mistake again, not to see a crisis in the making?”
Relationships and tools that can be used to manipulate a crisis have to be prepared for years – sometimes decades – in advance.
This reflects (Holling’s) belief that in a changing eco system the persistence of relationships matters more than anything else.
That’s a reason that the re-acquiring of habits of international cooperation in everything from food aid to nuclear energy is so essential.
It lets us begin to rebuild the webs of contacts, influence, and leverage to shape the environment around problems that we’ll never be able to attack directly. (Ramo: 2009: 214)

Geithner is leading the Obama administration’s effort to develop a housing finance strategy by January next year, “We need to delineate more clearly the public policy goals of how best to promote reasonably priced and stable mortgage costs for most Americans from how best to provide access to affordable housing for lower-income Americans.”
72 © BMI-BRSCU
STRATEGIC DRIFT AND REINVENTIONwww.strategicforum.co.za
“Fixing this system is one of the most consequential and complicated economic policy problems we face as a country,” Mr Geithner said.
“This is a test for Washington. The stakes are high. The housing industry supports millions of jobs. For many Americans, their home is their largest financial asset.”
The system’s size and complexity mean that a wrong move by the Obama administration could restrict credit, drive down home prices, increase foreclosures and slow the economy, housing advocates and industry participants say.
“It’s like building an aeroplane while you’re still flying it,” said David Ledford, senior vice-president of mortgage finance at the National
Association of Home Builders in Washington. Housing investments and related services account for 15% of gross domestic product, according to the group, ranking the industry second to healthcare.

The Major GAMEBREAKING POTENTIAL lie in the following areas:
An igniting vision of nation-building through home-ownership, property as a preferred investment and building as an engine for growth and wealth-creation;
Interest Rates falling further by 2-3 percentage points;
The Banks relaxing their stringent lending criteria and promoting Home Ownership as an Engine for Growth and Wealth Creation;
Return of Investor Confidence, Banks first and then Consumers;
Property a preferred Investment. (Source: BMI-BRSCU)

Retail Motor Industry chief executive Jeff Osborne is calling on South Africa’s banks to open the credit taps and on government to play its role by reducing the prime interest rate by a meaningful 2 percent. (Bus. Report, 26 November 2009)
“. . . They (the Banks) do hold the key to economic recovery and to the survival of small businesses. Although we are seeing the return of some stability in the market, there will be no real recovery until stable consumers can access credit.” (Bus. Report, 26 November 2009)

Brian Joffe, CEO of Bidvest, the R112 Billion annual turnover company employing some 105 000 people recently stated that much more must be done to stimulate the economy and to promote growth.
“The lending criteria of the Banks are hopelessly too strict. It makes it very difficult for the economy to grow. Interest Rates are also too high. It must reduce and then things will happen. The Government must become more aggressive (in promoting growth).” (Sake24, 7 March 2010)

In order to achieve the VISION FOR THE BUILDING INDUSTRY SYSTEM a collaborative culture is required based on trust and cross boundary networking and dynamic Public, Private Sector Partnerships that can deliver on Infrastructure, Housing, Health, Education, Safety and Security et al and make South Africa a Winning Nation and a World model of Nation Building and Reconciliation.

We have concluded that it is not one single body or institution or company that should develop and drive an igniting vision for the building industry.
The industry COLLECTIVELY must take ACCOUNTABILITY to develop an igniting vision of Nation Building through Home Ownership, Property as a Preferred Investment and Building as an Engine for Growth and Wealth Creation.
We envision that every major organisation in the Building Industry from Development to Manufacturing, to Distribution, to Contracting and Finance should adopt this overarching vision and customise it for their
own vision.
Then the Building and Property Industry will indeed become a HOT SPOT industry driven by an igniting vision, a collaborative mind-set, cross boundary networking and the productive capability to make South Africa a Winning Nation. Then a repetition of the sub-prime crisis will not catch a cooperating industry unawares.

Social development and equity, economic growth and financial performance, and environmental conservation and protection (the triple bottom line) are at the core of sustainability. And sustainability is at the heart of corporate social responsibility. To mainstream sustainability, leaders will need to drive corporate social responsibility out of the sphere of corporate affairs, risk, compliance and philanthropy, and into the domain of corporate vision, strategy and overall corporate thinking and behaviour.
