The themes
Each named line of effort.
The part
What it is
A theme people cannot repeat from memory will not organise anything. The name matters more than it ought to.
Naming them in the organisation’s own language rather than in strategy vocabulary is what makes them usable in ordinary conversation.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries
Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
