The vertical logic of the framework connects a goal at the top with supporting analysis (why, what, how) beneath it. The horizontal logic has summary statements at the left, supported by indicators at the right. This technique has its main applications in project analysis, but also tests the logic of proposed policies and programs. Use these column headings and row headings to test the logic of goals in your strategic planning. (For an example, see Box 9 of the text.) You will need to use additional paper for writing space. The cells are numbered 1-12 to help you organize for this.
