Advanced Impact Analysis: the ADVIAN® method - an enhanced approach for the analysis of impact strengths with the consideration of indirect relations

An enhanced approach for the impact analysis is presented. Impact analyses play an important role in future
research analysis as part of the scenario techniques in the strategic management field. Nowadays, they are also
applied for the description of mutual relationships of tangible and intangible resources in organisations. The
new method is based on currently existing methods using a cross impact matrix and overcomes some of their
drawbacks. Indirect impacts are considered together with their impact strengths. A modification of the impact
matrix is not necessary. Simple examples show that the new method leads to more reasonable and stable results
than the existing methods. The new method shall help analysing the complexity of social systems in a more
reliable way.
